string sq1;
                SqlCommand cmd1;
                SqlDataReader rd1;
                SqlConnection cn;
                String usrname = Convert.ToString(Box.Text);
                String usrid = Convert.ToString(Box2.Text);
                String pass = Convert.ToString(Box3.Text);
                String sx = Convert.ToString(Box4.Text);

                // cn.Open();
                if (cn.State == ConnectionState.Closed)
                {
                    cn.Open();
                }

                sq1 = "SELECT * FROM users where username='"+usr+"'";  //string commandString =sq1
                cmd1 = new SqlCommand(sq1, cn);
                rd1 = cmd1.ExecuteReader();

                //while (rd1.Read())
                //{
                // Console.WriteLine(String.Format("{0}", rd1["username"]));
               // }

               // sq1 = "UPDATE users SET username = '" + Box.Text + "',userid='" + Box2.Text + "',password='" + Box3.Text + "',sex='" + Box4.Text + "',email='" + Box5.Text + "' WHERE userid = '" + Box1.Text + "'";
            
                cmd1 = new SqlCommand(sq1, cn);
                cmd1.ExecuteNonQuery();
                MessageBox.Show("Updated", "User craetion", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Information);
                cn.Close();

Lines 5-10: Convert.ToString on string variables doesn't do anything.
Lines 20-28: These lines do nothing you can remove them.

What makes you think the user name wasn't updated?

directly use BOX.Text (all same ones from 5-10 instead of converting a string to string again) in sql command. Try this sql command instead

"UPDATE Users set username = '" + Box.Text + "',userid='" + Box2.Text + "',password='" +Box3.Text + "',sex='" + Box4.Text + "',email='" + Box5.Text+ "' WHERE username = '" + Box1.Text + "'"

... A part of these useless lines of code (5-10 and 20-28) your code seems to be alright what exactly you are looking for?.... Also remove

Connect Timeout=30

from your connection string
