I’m not a developer so I’m not sure where to start. I’d like to customize the Windows desktop client in one way one, the NAME of the program, folder, etc. when installed and running. I’d like to use this as a tool for my clients to drop files into but if it doesn’t have my name on it, it’ll get deleted or confusing.

Many of my clients can barely turn on their computers so to have the program say “MYNAME” instead of “NEXTCLOUD” would be a huge help.

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

Nextcloud did this with the owncloud-client:

> **[nextcloud/client\_theming](https://github.com/nextcloud/client_theming)**
>
> client\_theming - :computer: Nextcloud themed desktop client

You will also find instructions how to compile the client. The names seem to be primarily set here:

Thanks for the reply, tflidd.

I’ve been checking that out and it’s probably a bit over my head.
