HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion

In right-side pane, change RegisteredOwner & RegisteredOrganization to the desired one.

And also u can edit this:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Curr ent Version\Installer\UserData\S-1-5-18\Products

Under this key, u'll find several keys (based on what u hv installed on ur comp) with the name like, 9040110900063D11C8EF10054038389C, etc.

Under those keys, u'll get InstallProperties key. In right-side pane, change RegOwner & RegCompany to ur desired one.
