Change Existing Operator Name
This is useful if you accidentally create an Operator name with a typo or accidentally confirm a blank name.
- Open the Windows File Explorer and navigate to C:\EEGer\Preferences\Settings.
- Locate a file called Last User.ini - this may also be labelled as a Configuration settings file.
- Right-click on this file and either Edit or Open using a program like Notepad. You should now be able to edit the contents of this configuration file.
- You should see a single line reading user=ABC, where ABC is the current operator name set within EEGer. If you see a date next to this information, you may have opened the wrong file. If no operator's name is present, it's possible that an operator name was submitted with no text.
- Ensure you are opening Last User.ini and not Last User.txt.
- Change the operator name to what you would like and save the file by navigating to File>Save from the top toolbar of your text editor.
- Close and reopen EEGer if it is open. You should now be prompted to select the operator name you recently edited when starting the software.
