I recently had to use a USB Flash Drive to used recovery tools to fix my PC. Everything works, except now my PC shows up as 'minint-xxxxxxx' in my network instead of the actual PC device name. I tried changing the device name through my Windows 10 settings in an attempt to override the name, but it still displays the 'minint' name in my network. Is there any way to fix this?
