Windows Version.
I have two computers, both running Windows XP Home. Winver tells me
they both have just the same Version, SP, etc. Computer (1) has these details in the bottom RH corner of the screen - Comp. (2) does not.. How do I get them to show on the screen of Comp. (2), please? Comp.(2) was previously owned by Bill Bloggs and Winver tells me: "This product is licensed.....to Bill Bloggs". Is there any way I might change that to my name? Bill's name comes up unexpectedly from time to time in various places. Is it held in any single place to which I might have easy access with a view to changing it to mine? None of this is of great importance, of course - I'm just curious to know! TIA of any replies. -- DB. |

Windows Version.
Tweak UI, general category, mark the last option. Tweak UI is available
from: http://downloads.pcworld.com/pub/new...tweakui133.exe Right-click the TweakUI .inf file and select install. Should a notice appear saying a disk is required, click OK and another screen appears. Click browse, go to the folder containing Tweak and click OK and OK. Open the registry editor (regedit.exe) and do a search on "Bill Bloggs" (do not include the quote marks). When you find such an entry, right click it, chose modify and enter your name. Some programs may contain Bill's name and you will have to live with that unless you can find specific directions on how to remove it. -- Regards Ron Badour MS MVP Windows Desktop Experience "DB." wrote in message ...
