|
|
Yeah, so I just noticed that instead of Internet Explorer, my IE is titled Carpet Muncher. I don't even use it, but it was found by one of my old fashioned friends which needless to say was kind of awkward.
So, I was like, *shrug* oh well, this is easily fixed. So I went to my registry and there was nothing about my title bar. That's how it's supposed to get changed right? I just added it into the registry as just Internet Explorer and nothing changed. Is there something else that controls the title?

No, like, where it would say "Internet Explorer" it says "Carpet Muncher"
If I am on google, it says "Google - Carpet Muncher"

| Quote: | To Add a Custom Internet Explorer Window Title
Using Registry Editor, add a String value named Window Title to the following key in the registry:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main
The data value is the title you want to appear on the Internet Explorer window.
| I've already done this.
Like I said, at first, there was no entry for Window Title. I thought that adding in this entry would overwrite anything that was changing it, which it didn't.

Windows XP Professional, Vista Business and above.
You can change or restore the title back within the
Group Policy Editor.

Oh thanks kls, this fixed it, kinda.
I had to check it, be dissatisfied with huge name, then uncheck it for it to revert back to normal.
