func CurrentUsername

func CurrentUsername() (string, error)

CurrentUsername retrieves the username of the currently logged-in user in a Windows environment.

This function uses the os/user package to access the current user's information. It then parses the Username field to extract the actual username, discarding the domain if present.

Returns:

• string: The username of the currently logged-in user. If the username cannot be retrieved, an empty string is returned.
• error: An error object that wraps any error that occurs during the retrieval of the username. If the username is retrieved successfully, it returns nil.
