I currently work with two accounts MyUserName and an admin account MyAdminName. I've use MyAdminName quite extensively but now I'm trying to make a habit of using MyUserName as my default account.

Currently when I open SharePoint in a browser it will default to MyAdminName by default even though I'm logged into my workstation with MyUserName account. I can log in as a different user as long as I notice. Another issue is when I open any document directly from MS Word or MS Excel it saves the document using MyAdminName instead of MyUserName and I don't know how to change that.

Is there any way to change this default behavior? I'm working in SharePoint 2010, Office 2010 and Windows 7.

More than likely you have at some point saved your admin credentials to the domain of your SharePoint site. Check the Credential Manager and clear out your admin credentials. If you have mapped a network drive to your SharePoint site then that would also cause this behavior and you need to disconnect the mapped drive.

Windows has a habit of caching credentials within a session even after you change them so you might need to reboot after making the changes.
