View 1 RepliesI have searched lots of way to make a 30 day trial limit of my program. They say "Use -Settings- in visual basic application for your variables" to save the information about user (like : registered or not registered or when the program expire). (You can see the 'Settings' when you double-click on "my project" in "solution explorer") Does the data which we use with "settings" saved in our program or somewhere in the computer?

I need to know how can I make trial(demo) version of my program. Normally people use date & time to do it. But if user will change his system date I guess it will not work. I need to know the best way of making trial version which will work only 7 or 15 or 30 days. Is it possible to make something like that it(program) will kill all files after passing 30 days

I just ran into a problem that I did not really give too much thought to when I started building my app .I'm releasing the first version of a fairly sizable application to my users. There are going to be two types of changes: Corrections and Enhancements. If a correction is required (ie, user finds an error in the app and I need to fix it right away) I will make the change in the code, and republish the app for the users to dwnload.My problem is that I have to start working on the second release objectives, and that requires changing some of the underlying structure of the app... that being the case, I cannot accomplish this in the production version of the app and thereby need to create a test version to parallel the production version.
If I do this, how do I merge the two applications later? If this was two excel files, I would just save the newest one to override the old one (when ready for release2), but there is no "save project as" in vs.net (2008).
Reasonably experienced programmer but newbie question on VB Express 2010: I have coded my 1st attempt at my project. I now want to save the work I have done and branch the code but be able to go back to what I did before if I screw up. What is the best practice? Do I get any help from Visual Studio. I could save a copy of the code in another directory or different file name

Is there any way to make my programs use a lower version of net.framework other than the newest version 4 that comes with VS2010?I use my programs within a closed network and there isn't an easy way for me to install any software since I'm not the administrator.
View 3 RepliesI'm trying to add functionality to my application that will disable buttons and checkboxes depending on what version the OS is when the app is launched. I made a test app to test this but unfortunately I can not get it to work. Here is my code:
'OS Check

osValue =
My.Computer.Registry.GetValue("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindows NTCurrent Version", "CurrentVersion", "5.2")

*Note - 5.2 is Windows 2003, 6.0 is Vista, 5.1 is Windows XP
I have created a license system for my application with MySql about half a year ago. What it would do is take the serial number and send it to my server if the key was correct it would return a 0 if its wrong the return value would be a 1.The problem was that when the serial number was entered correctly my program would create a "fake file" for example vb.dll in the system.And on run time my program would check for that vb.dll if the file exist it would skip my trial program and run the app as a full version. Half year later i think creating a "fake file" and checking for it on start up is extremely wrong and that's not very good security.How can i check the difference between a full version and unregistered version?

I just want it to compare assembly version to the file version something like this (btw i also want it if it is the same i want it to enable a button):
Private Sub StartSplash_Load(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
If Assembly Version = File Version Then
[Code].....
so how do i detect Assembly & File version numbers?
I would like my program to overwrite its previous version such that users don't have to uninstall the previous version before installing the new one.
I'm guessing it has something to do with setting Publish Version (Major, Minor, Build, Revision), Assembly Version or File Version.
how can i add a trial with random serials or single serial and once it get registered expire it after 6-12 months....and also if user change its clock time to some day back it remains expire.....
View 1 RepliesJust today I've completed a trial version of my application - I then uploaded it to my webserver, and to my surprise a user already (almost one hour after I uploaded it) bypassed the protection and used the software 8 times (instead of the limit of 1 use)!
My "protection" was pretty weak. After the program has been used, it just writes a value to a single registry key. The user just deletes this registry key and can use the program once more, and so if someone does this enough times, he can use the software for as much time as needed.
Anyway, since I'm not really experienced in programming, do you guys have some nice working and possible easy to implement trial protection? I'm not looking for anything too serious, but it shouldn't be as easy to bypass as my current protection.
Ive created a trial application , but how do i stop that application from running again on the same ip address? Just so the user cant re-install it and use it again.
