yourname/ appdata/ local/ activision / codwaw / players / profiles       It should show you what names you have been playing under. You can right click and rename what ever player profile you want.

The folder contains a text file with your profile name. I guess you will have to change it to your new name too.

All I have ever done was change the profile folder name.

When I started playing Cod 5 I got an error message. "Profile already exists". The solution I found was:

 

- create a new folder with your desired name

- change the content of the blabla.txt (I can't remember the name right now) to your profile name.

 

First I missed the second step and it didn't work.

That's the reason for my my previous post. :)

 

May be this text file contains the active profile and it is not necessary to change it if you select the profile in-game. Who knows...

 

I thought it might be a useful hint in case the rename doesn't work.

Have not a clue. I'm just using this thread to close in on 5,000 posts. So keep on reading - nothing to see here.
