That information gets written when you install the software. If you have a
legal copy, then why did you enter someone else's name when you installed
it?

There is a new user for that computer. The person who installed it wrote the
users name on the license information, not the company information so now the
new user complains and wants it changed.

Possibly in
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\UserD
ata\S-1-5-18\Products\90400E0900063D11C8EF10054038389C\InstallProperties\Reg

Personally, I'd just search the Registry for the bad name and change all
keys containing it to reflect the new name.
