fred2 0 Report post Posted August 5, 2008 I'd very much like to get a copy of Rudy's program, as I have a second hand computer and do not like seeing the previous owners name even though I have changed the log-in name. I have sent you Rudy a PM with my email address, but if anyone else could either indicate where I can find this program, what its file name is, or email it to me (I have email enabled) I would be very grateful to all. Thanks very much. I found a little program that does it for you right off the internet some time ago. I have used it several times and it work well. It seems harmless enough I scanned it for viruses and every thing.Itâs only 10k compressed I would be happy to share it with anyone who wanted it just email me for a copy. Strange enough I did not find any copyright information with it so I donât even know who made it or if itâs copyrighted. There is no company name in the properties.I will provide it to anyone at their own risk! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FirefoxRocks 0 Report post Posted August 8, 2008 There are a few tweaking programs on Download.com that allow you to tweak the Windows XP owner name.By the way, it is perfectly legal to change this setting, but using the same key on multiple computers is not.

iGuest 3 Report post Posted August 25, 2008 Thanks for the Information How To Change Registered Owner`s Name On Win Xp This information was quite helpful. What isn't helpful in a forum is chastising someone for not posting a long enough reply, even though he's thanking the author. Saying the replies need be longer is like asking someone who is shy and knows nothing of the subject to stand in front of thousands and give a dissertation. It's Bollocks if you ask me. There are several tools out there that accomplish the same thing for people who are afraid of the registry. Here is one, for example, that works for XP or Vista -reply by excop72 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I do itEvery day. I have an image of one computer setup with all the programsAnd settings I need. Then I create an image (2 to 3 cd's). When I setupA new batch of computers they all have the same name and the same XPKey as the original. Then I change the owner name and the Key to theNext in the series. It's perfectly legal.
