I'm using Windows 10 home on my laptop with ArcGIS Pro 2.5.0. The dynamic text <dyn type="user"/> is returning something that is the name of my user documents file and not my registered user name or ID. A little background, when I purchased the PC, I registered a profile with my phone number. That created the user file with the first 5 digits of the phone number (ie C:\Users\12345). I later changed that to a Microsoft Outlook account name@outlook.com which is registered with my actual name on the profile through the web, but the file folder on the PC remains "C:\Users\12345". The user name dynamic text returns "12345". It would be nice if it either returned my actual human name registered with my profile, my ArcGIS online username or something else that could be traced back to me rather that a random string of integers.
