Removing name form System properties

[Power-B]

When I installed windows I put my real name in the registered area now I would like to change it, Is there a way to do it?

If you're familiar and comfortable with editing the registry, open regedit and drill down to the following key:

[\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Cur rentVersion]

You should see these registry keys in the right-hand window: RegisteredOrganization and RegisteredOwner. Doubleclick each and an "Edit String" box will appear. The "Value data" space should have the name you typed in when you installed Windows. Erase that and type in whatever you want, then OK and close regedit.

I do this procedure when I work on machines that have been purchased used and previously registered to the original owner.

Hope this helps!
