If you don't know where that is... Then how are you capable of editing it...

Anyways...

If you installed windows in a directory called windows on the C drive its:

C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\SHELL32.DLL
C:\WINDOWS\EXPLORER.EXE

but if you want to change your operating system name, that would be very hard, as you would need to edit alot of strings in alot of files.

You might want to look into the vista looking computer properties panel.
