I am always searching the net for good softwares and when I find them, they all are Trial Versions.
So a Trial? Means 30 Days or less. I started thinking….I found out that a trial software records its date of installation in a file in its folder and counts days.
So if after the trial is over, and when you delete its folder in which the date was recorded, the software would probably think that you have installed just now and then it creates a new date-recording-file.
And your trial starts over again…And if you want the Again..and Again!
Enough of writing, let’s come to the point.
Follow these 8 simple steps below:
Get a trial and wait for it to be over, come back to this post after it is over.
Uninstall the trial and restart your computer (if it is required).
Then…The software’s settings folder is located in? C:Documents and Settings(Username)Application Data (in Windows XP), in Windows Vista, it will be in C:Users(Username)Application Data (doesn’t work in Vista if UAC is on)
Look for your trial software’s name or company name in that folder. If you are having difficulty in getting that then check each of the folders content.Or search it.
After you get that folder, just delete it.
Now its time for some Registry work.Open Run (Windows Logo Key+R) and type ‘regedit’ in the registry editor, browse to My ComputerHKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftware and then search for your software’s folder and delete it. Do the same in?My ComputerHKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWARE ,leave it if you don’t find the software there.
Install the trial again and then it works from the starting.
Repeat the same directions when your trial is over again!
Enjoy Fullversions!
Note: This is the legal way of doing it. Otherwise a crack or keygen can be used to convert it to full version forever, but illegally.
Another option-
Using Time Stopper.
Click Desktop Icon (1) to open the Time stopper
Time stopper help
Watch Time Stopper online example video
Then click Browse button (2) to select software
How to use time stopper
Now you will get this window
Then select main exe of try-out version & open it.
Normally software install in program files folder.
For open it click my computer, click C drive, click program files folder and finally click software folder (total video converter)
select main exe (tvc)
(Normally main exe create desktop or start menu icon)
Click "choose the new date" comb box and set date as your wish.
Assume total video converter install 2009 may 1st. today is 2009 may 3rd. Trial period of total video converter is 15 days.
Then you should set day between 2009 may 4th to 2009 may14th as the date.
Finally You should create desktop icon. Type a name for your trial version software(3) and click button (4) to create desktop shortcut
Number (3) is your system calendar. You can%u2019t change it. View only
If Software has desktop or startup folder shortcuts delete them and never use start menu link to open software.
(Because after trial period accidentally click old desktop icon or start menu icon trial period of some software will be permanently over.)
