    what you need to do is right click the file
    into properties
    security
    edit
    select your user name to allow your user if your not the admin to allow everything

    click apply ok and then close that it should then let you change your name

    Can't make any promises it'll work, but you can try this:

    Try using the config editor located under the tools menu.

    I'm guessing you installed Ace of Spades in the default directory:

    C:\Program Files\Ace of Spades

    When you first started the application, a dialog should have appeared asking you to select the installation folder, did you properly set this?

    I don't think so, let me try to reinstall it.

    To change your name you can either open it as an administrator of the commuter or the following;

    Go to the Ace of Spades directory.
    Right click properties on the Config.inc
    Permissions
    Click your username.
    enable WRITE.

    Then change the config and save.

    Alternatively (and that's what I do)

    Go into the AoS directory

    Copy (or move) the .ini file to Desktop.

    Once in desktop, edit and save it.

    Then, paste it back to the directory (select the overwrite option obviously).

    Save the file somewhere else, move it back to AoS, and replace the previous config file.

    @10se1ucgo, Thank you for pointing that out. I would have corrected my mistake in my original post but I have gone past the edit time.
