Many Software use third party softwares like Sentinel or WinLicense for protection and licensing. These protectors will have functionality for trial periods also. Using this, many softwares gives 15 or 30days trial period after installation like Kaspersky. However there are softwares that can reset the trial period of such softwares. As you all know, the protection softwares will store the trial details in the Windows Registry. Finding and Decrypting the registry values is almost close to impossible when manually done. But a software called “Trial Reset” can do this job for you. The software is free and it can effectively clear trial period of almost any protection.
This is how Trail Reset works
- The host software will create registry keys, which contains the encrypted keys and details like trial date, system ID etc.
- The registry cannot be found out manually, not it can be edited.
- Trial Reset software will first locate the protection registry key
- You can clear the key contents, and this will refresh the trial period
