To change your Orb login, without having to uninstall and reinstall Orb and lose all your Orb system configuration, simply add a second account on your Orb PC, then log in under that second account and delete the first account, as follows:

If you have installed 2.01 (To know the Orb version - click Orb tray icon > About):

On your Orb PC, navigate to Orb tray icon > Configuration > Users, then click Add user

Click Create an account in the “Orb account information” window that pops up, fill out the Account Creation form, then click Finish and Exit the Orb tray icon configuration

Click the Orb tray icon > Configuration again: you will be prompted to select your login. Select the login you just created

Click the Users tab, select your old account and click Delete, confirm, and… done!

If you have installed 2.5x or later

On your Orb PC, click the Orb tray icon > Control Panel > Accounts, then click "+" to add user

Check the radio button on New Account in the "Add account" window that pops up, fill out the account creation form, then click Add.

Right click on the Orb tray icon > Control Panel, select the created user name and login with the password. Click the Accounts tab, select your old account and click "-" sign to delete, confirm with YES and... done!

If you have installed 2.5x or later [MAC]

On your Mac, click Orb icon on the menu bar > Control Panel > Accounts, then click "+" to add user

Check the radio button on New Account in the "Add account" window that pops up, fill out the account creation form, then click Add.

Click on Orb icon on the menu bar > Control Panel, select the created new user name and login with the password. Click the Accounts tab, select your old account and click "-" sign to delete, confirm with YES and... done!

Note: There is no need to delete your first account from Orb users database, as it will become automatically inactive.
