In fact there are too many things that are customizable in windows ,it is why I would like to know some of them like my computer properties window that appear when you select property of my computer on a drop down menu when you have right clicked. If you know other customizable areas don't hesitate to inform or tell me where I can find more info on this topic.

There is software out there to help "customize" the data on the "General" tab of system properties.
As I recall, the package I saw allowed you to change the computer name, who made it, and place your own logo.

If you are looking for general information on the topic, search the web, and your favorite download site for "tweak"

Check out www.annoyances.org

If you really want to dig deaply into the topic, most of the settings are stored in the system "registry". The tweaking programs simply provide a "user-friendly" interface to safely edit registry settings.
There are a number of web sites and books on the registry. A good starting point would be the Annoyances book for your version of Windows.
