Customize the default registered identity

28 October 2002 by Snakefoot | Comment » | Trackback Off
Some times when installing Games and Applications then you get requested to verify that your name and company are correct. The default name and company presented to you each time is set during the installation.

To change your identify go to the following STRING registry keys :

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER /Software /Microsoft /MS Setup (ACME) /User Info]
DefCompany = "UserCompany"
DefName = "UserName"

To change the owner go to the following STRING registry keys (Win9x only) :

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE /SOFTWARE /Microsoft /Windows /CurrentVersion]
RegisteredOrganization = "UserCompany"
RegisteredOwner = "UserName"

To change the owner go to the following STRING registry keys (WinNT+ only) :

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE /SOFTWARE /Microsoft /Windows NT /CurrentVersion]
RegisteredOrganization = "UserCompany"
RegisteredOwner = "UserName"
