The registry edit will change the name in the system
properties window. But the folder in the Documents and
Settings that also has the name of the registered owner is another story. I will
look some more for you. XP
Home edition is a little different in this area than XP pro
from what I read at Microsoft Knowledge base. I hate having my name plastered all
over the puter, so when
ever I do a install I Use the Name"User" and leave the
registration blank.
