This tutorial will show you how to customize the OEM support information for your Windows 11 PC.

The OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) support information in Windows includes the manufacturer, support phone, support hours, and support website for your PC.

If you purchased a PC from a vendor, it'll usually already have all of the OEM support information under "Support" on the Settings > System > About page.

If you build your own PCs, then you can add your own custom support information.


You must be signed in as an administrator to add or customize OEM support information.


EXAMPLE: OEM Support Information in Settings
