How to change the username in Google Chrome profiles?
I have two profiles in my Google Chrome: Joe and Sam. I would like to rename the name of my profile into "JoeJobs" but I can't find any way to do it. I'm only getting "Manage people" and "Remove this person".
Is there any way to rename my username profile. Deleting it and re-creating it is truely ridiculous - I saved a lot of bookmarks and there's a ton of website settings saved in my profile
