Usually in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps you will see a named folder which will be his username

I checked all of the steam folders and all of the txt files that I could open and no account name is logged anywhere, The only instances of my username in the registry in conjuction with steam was located here,

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Valve\Steam
under lastgamenameused

It may be worth searching Steam in the registry to see if it has stored anythingif not then I can only suggest following, https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=4988-DHXV-7272

and hopefully he/you know the email address that was used when the account was setup

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\config\loginusers

This will take you to a file that you open with wordpad. When you open it, it tells you the username and persona name.
