Regi-Processor: The CPU Name Changer

Regi-Processor is a PowerShell script designed to make it easy for users to update the CPU name in the Windows Registry. This script is particularly useful for users who want to customize the CPU name displayed in their system information.

Prerequisites

  • Windows operating system
  • Administrative privileges

Usage

  1. Download the Script:

    • Clone the repository or download the regi-processor.ps1 script directly.

  2. Open PowerShell:

    • Right-click on the Windows Start menu and select "Windows PowerShell (Admin)" to open PowerShell with administrative privileges.

  3. Navigate to the Script Location:

    • Use the cd command to navigate to the directory where the regi-processor.ps1 script is located.

  4. Run the Script:

    • Execute the script by typing .\regi-processor.ps1 and pressing Enter.

    Set Execution Policy (if needed):

    • If you encounter a permission issue, use the following command to set the execution policy: 
       Get-ExecutionPolicy
    • If the policy is set to "Restricted" or "RemoteSigned," you can change it to "Unrestricted" or "Bypass" (for testing purposes only) by running the following command:
      Set-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned
  Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted

  5. Follow the Prompts:

    • The script will prompt you to enter the new processor name. Type the desired name and press Enter.

  6. Wait for the Script to Complete:

    • The script will iterate through each CPU entry in the Windows Registry and update the CPU name as specified.

  7. Verify Changes:

    • After the script completes, verify that the CPU name has been updated by checking the system information or other relevant utilities.

Caution

  • Ensure you have administrative privileges before running the script.
  • Make sure to enter a valid and appropriate CPU name to avoid any unexpected behavior.
