How can I change the system information
I inherited a computer for my daughter in law with XP Home OS on it. Can I change the operating system information easily?
If you mean 'Owner' and this information, Yes
However, what you need to do as far as the account (username) is conerned, it is create a new account in any name you want, and then delete the old - go to control panel, user accounts.
This avoids difficulties alter on if you siply change the username in use.
After the back if you want more details on how to change the 'holder' (that long because I did, I forgot!)

How can I change the system on my imac OSX 10.11.4 Administrator?
It's on a new iMac (2016). I SHOULD be the system administrator. Firefox won't let me update because it says I don't have permission and need to contact my system administrator. Ugh.
This happens with all apps or just Firefox? If it's just FF, and then in the Finder choose FF and right-click to get the information. In the sharing and permissions permissions are checked. Open the triangle. The permissions should be:
Me > reading and writing
Admin > read-only
all read-only.

How can I change the attributes read-only or system files?
How can I change the attributes read-only or system files?
To view or to remove the read-only or system attributes, use the Attrib command at a command prompt:
1. click the Start button, type cmd in the search box and press ENTER.
2. to view the syntax for the Attrib command, Type attrib------? at the command prompt.
WARNING: If you remove the read-only or a file system attribute, it may seem like a regular folder and some customizations may be lost. For example, Windows customizes the Fonts folder and provides a special folder view that allows you to hide variations, such as bold and italics. It also allows you to change the display settings of the file in a way that is specific to fonts. If you remove the read-only attributes and the Fonts folder system, these custom display settings not available. For folders that you have customized by using the tab, customize the folder properties dialog box, the folder icon and other other customizations may be lost when you remove the read-only attribute.
If a program cannot save files to a folder with read-only, such as My Documents, change the read-only to the system attribute by using the Attrib command at a command prompt.
To remove the read-only attribute and to set the system attribute, use the following command:
attrib - r + s drive:------
------. For example, to remove the read-only attribute and set the attribute to system for the C:\Test folder, use the following command: attrib - r + s c:\test
Be aware that some programs may not work correctly with folders for which the read-only attribute and the system attribute are granted. You can use the following command to remove these attributes:
attrib - r-s c:\test

I created the Package CC "exsample" series of license name and disabled the Office CC Implementation Committee and selected the option "specify directory for deployment" or 'Directory to specify' in the Advanced dialog configrations.
I started to deploy in the victory of the client PC with command line like below,
msiexec /i exsample.msi TARGETDIR = D:\test
or
msiexec /i INSTALLDIR = D:\test exsample.msi
Installation was completed though, apps had been installed in the defalt directory "C:\Program files".
In CC helps Packer said as the folliwings on the location of the Installation,
"The Application Manager offers you the following options for the deployment location:
Deploy in the default directory of the application: the player is by default the system unit; the default path is \Program Files in Windows/applications under Mac OS.
Specify the directory for the deployment: allows users to end to specify the installation path when the package is deployed. On Mac OS, users are invited on the user interface, while on Windows, it's a command-line only option.
' Specify the directory: enter the path to the location to a specific installation location.
Is - this explanation is wrong?
How can I change the installation directory in windows PC where to deploy the package to the series of licenses?
Any information would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
