Stuart bashed at the keyboard and said..:
Can anybodsy tell me how to change the Registered User in
Windows XP Professional as I have put in the wrong
details and need toi amend the spelling of the Re User
Hi Stuart,
*Change Registered User Info*
You can change Windows' registered user and company info from
System Registry. Open the Registry Editor by selecting Start,
Run, typing regedit, and clicking OK. Navigate to this key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion
You'll see the RegisteredOrganization and RegisteredOwner string
values (or AB icons) in the right pane. To change one of these
values, double click it to open its Edit String dialog, type in
the new information,
and press OK. Repeat for the other entry if necessary, and close
RegEdit. Note: This changes the default registered user info. Any
program registration, dial-up connection, or logon you've already
created with the previous name will stay in effect.
*Remember:*
Before making Any registry change either suggested by
us or anyone else, Backup your registry! One wrong move in the
registry could render windows inoperable! With a current backup
you can restore your registry to its previous condition before
you made the change. Backing up is a simple procedure that takes
seconds and can save you hours of work later if you make a
mistake.
