I'm not sure how it happened, but on startup my VS 2012 copy reads
Licensed To: "----------------Hewlet-Packard (blah)..."
I have no idea how that got there. We installed through our MSDN subscription. Anyone know of a simple way to replace this with either my name or my company's?
This makes me sad inside.
For Windows 7 I found the following instructions on this site:
Open Registry Editor (Start->Run->type “regedit”->press enter)
Find the following key:
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\VisualStudio\11.0_Config\Registration\UserNameChange it’s value to the desired name
Navigate to the following folder:
C:\Users\{YOUR_USER}\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\VisualStudio\11.0(replace the placeholder with your own username)Delete the file
vs000223.dat– this is actually a JPG file containing the splash screen, you can change it’s name to see it for yourselfStart Visual Studio, and it magically recreates the file with the modified name in it!
