Change the name of the registered user.

When you install Windows, you're prompted to enter a username and a company name. But since it's fairly common for companies to merge, you may want to change the name of the company Windows is registere to by using this hack:
  1. Navigate through the Registry Editor to HKLM\Software\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion.
  2. Change the values that are assigned to the RegisteredOwner and RegisteredOrganization keys to reflect the new ownership information.

Disable User Account Control

One of the things about Vista that seems to irritate a lot of people is the User Account Control feature. In essence an administrator is treated as a standard user. Administrators who attempt to perform an administrative action  receive a prompt asking whether they initiated the action. I think that this prompt is a valuable safeguard against  malware, but since a lot of people don't like it, here's how to use the registry editor to suppress the prompt:
  1. Navigate through the registry editor to:  "HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System".
  2. Change the value of the "ConcentPromptBehaviorAdmin" key to "00000000".
