Hi Paul,

You can only change the 'Registered to' name and changing the name of the
folders under Documents and Settings is not possible once they have been
created.

Change the 'Registed to' name by running the following automated edit:

Change registered owner and organisation (line 7, right column)

Hi Paul,

You can only change the 'Registered to' name and changing the name of the
folders under Documents and Settings is not possible once they have been
created.

Change the 'Registed to' name by running the following automated edit:

Change registered owner and organisation (line 7, right column)
