The steps to change Windows 10 system properties logo are less complicated than you might think. In this article I’ll explain exactly how you can put your own logo in the system properties screen in Windows 10. Everything you need to know is right here on this page, along with step by step instructions and screenshot illustrations. Because in some cases, the default system properties logo is just not entirely right. Or, if you are running your own computer services business, it’s just a little nicer to have your own logo there instead of the computer manufacturer’s logo. And while you’re at it, you can also include your company contact information so the person working on the computer will always know how to reach you. No matter what your reasons are to change the system properties logo, this is simply one of those computer tips and tricks that just remains very in-demand.

Steps To Change Windows 10 System Properties Logo

Short recapitulation: you can bring up the system properties logo in Windows 10 by pressing the logo key + x on your keyboard to open up the quick link menu.

In the quick link menu, select “system”.

That will immediately take you to the system properties screen with an overview of your computer’s hardware, along with (usually) a manufacturer’s logo. In addition to that, there’s also the Manufacturer’s name and a support website. This will prove to be an excellent opportunity to put your contact details, so the person working on the computer will always have a link available with contact information to reach you in case they need support. (Don't worry if you don't see manufacturer or support information in your screen, I'll show you how to put your own information there in a minute).

• On successful GPO refresh, you should see OEM/Company Logo displayed on System Information as shown below. In case of Windows XP and Windows Server 2003, you need to install group policy client side extensions to get benefits of GPP. Please refer below linked article by Alan Burchill (MVP) to know more about Group Policy Preferences Prerequisites.
• Press Win + R and type in regedit. After that, go to branch: HKEYLOCALMACHINE SOFTWARE Microsoft Windows CurrentVersion OEMInformation. Tip: Since the Windows 10 Creators Update, you can get to folder by pasting a branch name just in the address field. If the key OEMInformation does not exist, you need to create it.

You will of course need to have your logo ready in a file in order to display it in your system properties screen. This file must be a .bmp (Windows bitmap file) with 120 pixels wide by 120 pixels high. You can use a free image editing program like IrfanView or Picasa to edit your image file and make a 120 x 120 pixel .bmp version of it for use as logo in your system properties windows.
Next, to change Windows 10 system properties logo screens with your customized logo file, it’s most convenient to place your bitmap logo file in your Windows 10 systems folder (usually c:windows), since that is the location where system properties logo files are generally placed.
Once you have your logo file ready and in the right location on your hard disk, it’s time to open your registry editor with administrative rights. In order to do so, click your Windows 10 start button and start typing “regedit” (without the quotes). In the “Best match” section that appears at the top of the list, right-click regedit and select “Run as administrator”.

If a user account control screen comes up, click yes to continue.

Then, in your registry editor, navigate to the key
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionOEMInformation
and take a look at the right side of the registry editor window. It will probably look rather empty, like in the image below.

After you have filled all the text fields and chosen a logo, click on the button labeled Change to save the information. Alternatively, you can choose from menu File → Change to save the information. After saving the OEM information, you will have to close and reopen the System Properties to see the changes.

However, there’s no need to worry if there are some registry keys already present in your OEMInformation registry key, like in the example below.

On the contrary, if these keys are already present, you just need to change the values by double-clicking them and editing their entries. In case they are not there yet, you need to right-click in the right side of your registry editor and select “new” -> “string value”.

For the name of your new string value, type “Logo” (without the quotes) and press ENTER.

The next thing you need to do to change Windows 10 system properties logo file settings is enter the proper path to your logo bitmap file. Double-click the Logo key in order to open up the “Edit string” window and enter the correct path and filename.

That part will already take care of the logo in your system properties screen.

To change Windows 10 system properties logo information with manufacturer and support url details included, you now need to create (or edit) two more registry strings, using the same method as described above:

• 'Manufacturer'
• 'SupportURL'
  

The use of these two extra registry strings will allow you to change Windows 10 system properties settings and information in any Windows 10 system, including a live clickable support link to a website of your choice.

These registry values basically work in previous version of Windows as well, as described in my earlier article about modifying the system properties settings.

In conclusion I would say that if you ever felt the need to change Windows 10 system properties logo details and support information, there's no need to postpone this any longer, because with these simple steps it's a simple and straightforward procedure.

Windows 10 displays information about the make, model and name of your device within the Settings app and Control Panel system page. Usually, you won’t notice anything wrong with this information. However, if you’ve just reinstalled Windows or built your own computer, you might find all the values are showing as “To Be Filled By O.E.M.”

Of course, this has no impact on the functionality of your system. But if you’re anything like this author, you want to give your new self-build PC its own identity – so read on to find out how to change these values to something more useful.

This process does involve editing the Windows Registry, so we’ll leave a standard warning here: although we don’t see how tweaking manufacturer information can negatively impact your system, this isn’t officially supported by Microsoft and it may stop working in the future. Take care when editing the registry; unintentional, malformed or misconfigured edits can cause serious trouble.

Change Oem Info

To get going, open the Registry Editor (hit the Start button and type regedit). If you’re not an administrator, you will be prompted to reauthenticate as one.

Using the address bar at the top of the window, paste or type the following key:

Note that older versions of Windows 10 don’t have an address bar in the Registry Editor, so you’ll need to manually navigate through the folder-like structure to find the key.

What you’ll see depends on whether your system already has manufacturer information. If it does, you should see several keys besides “(Default)” in the right pane which define different properties of your system. You can double-click these keys to edit their value after following the instructions below.

If you’ve just installed Windows and Control Panel displays your manufacturer information as “To Be Filled By O.E.M,” you’ll probably just have the sole “(Default)” key. When following the instructions below, you’ll need to create new keys for each property – right-click anywhere in the right pane and choose New > String Value. Be careful to ensure its name exactly matches that of your intended property. You can then set its value by double-clicking it.

The available properties are as follows:

• Manufacturer – The manufacturer name to display for your device
• Model – The model name to display for your device
• SupportHours – Used to display manufacturer support information
• SupportPhone – Used to display manufacturer support information
• SupportURL – Used to display manufacturer support information
• Logo – A path to a bitmap format image to use as your manufacturer “logo”; you’ll need to experiment with sizes and formats

Each of these properties is entirely optional – if you’re building your own system, you’ll probably want to omit the support-related ones.

By way of example, let’s suppose you want your PC’s manufacturer to display as “On MSFT” and none of the keys currently exist on your system.

Right-click in the registry editor window, and choose New > String Value. Name the key “Manufacturer” and then double-click it to set its value. Type “On MSFT.”

After editing the keys, you’ll be able to open Control Panel > System and Security > System to see your new information – no reboot required.
