How do I change my name in Undertale?

Many people have told me that I have to complete a route before being capable of changing my name, but I don't truly want to wait that long. My friend took control of my PC and messed up my name. I just want to know how to change it so I can not play as "LEzLIE". Thank you if you can help.


As shown in this video the steps to change your name (using config files):

  1. Go to your start menu and enter %appdata%
  2. From the folder this takes you to go back one
  3. Follow this path: Local/Undertale
  4. Open the Undertale config file
  5. Go to down to Name="Current Name"
  6. Change Current Name to the name that you want (in quotations!!!)
  7. Save it
  8. Go back to the Undertale folder
  9. Open file 9
  10. Change the first line to the name that you want (the same as the one in the Undertale config file!)
  11. Save it
  12. Open file 0
  13. Repeat steps 10 and 11 for this file.
  14. Open Undertale (Game) and press continue.

Don't change the numbers in these folders! You risk resetting your game!
