- Now enter the following in the command line, which you can open with the key combination "Windows key + R": "(path to Java folder) \ jre6 \ bin \ java "-Xms512m -Xmx1024m -cp"% APPDATA% \. Minecraft \ bin \ * "-Djava.library.path ="% APPDATA% \. Minecraft \ bin \ natives " net.minecraft.client. Minecraft "Player".
- Adjust the path to the Java installation folder and enter your own name instead of "Player".
- Hit enter and the game will start. You have now changed your character's name.

To avoid having to enter the string every time you start the game, create for the game Minecraft your own shortcut with your own name.
Save Minecraft in a different folder - here's how
Minecraft is created by default in the "appdata" directory. But you can ...
- To do this, right-click on the desktop and select "New" and "Shortcut".
- Copy the character string with the entered path to the Java folder and the desired player name into the bar and press "Next".
- Now give the shortcut a name and press "Finish".
- Double-click the shortcut to start the game with the name automatically changed.
- Right-click on the shortcut and select "Properties" to change the player name afterwards without creating a new shortcut.
- Change the entry in the bar behind "Target". Then click on "Apply" and "Ok" to save the settings.
