Missing RegisteredOwner and RegisteredOrg from Windows Registry Editor
Hello
I wanted to chnage the owner and company name on my pc when I noticed that they are missing. So, under Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion they don't exist. Does anyone know how to address this?

When details are added to 'org name'
'Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion'
'org name' shows these details but ...'About Windows' still shows only 'org name' (likewise 'user name')??
Also ...
When 'org name' 'user name' 'Registered Owner' (etc) are actually, MISSING, (not just empty) in -
'Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion' ??
How are these created? - Hello,
You need to add them manually, as directed in this article (works with Windows 11):

No reboot required, changes will reflect immediately.
Hope this helps!
