Adding "Support" Column in Windows System About Section

Question

In the Windows Settings under System > About, there is an option labeled "Support" that some systems display.

After researching, it appears that specialized repair shops can add this "Support" category. As a small computer repair shop that provides system reinstallation services, what steps are necessary to add a "Support" column to the systems installed for clients?

Hi 梓珺 张,

This information is stored in the registry under

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\OEMInformation

You can import the support information by creating String Values like this (copy the code below in a text editor, replace the values and save is as .reg for easy install):

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\OEMInformation]
"SupportURL"="http://www.TheCoolPCCompany.com"
"Manufacturer"="The Cool PC Company"
"SupportPhone"="+1 000 000 000"
"SupportHours"="9AM - 6PM"
"Model"="Copilot+ PC"

The 'Model' will display on top of the about screen just under the device name, rest of the info will show under support

Hope this helps,
