After all this i get the registration windows with blank field with are called Edit1 and Edit2

I'm getting really angry about all this -.-' . Heeelp

Registration information is located here:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Xilisoft\<<converter spam>>\RegInfo]

Add them after the last line using regwrite.

how ? it's not working. I entered the key manualy, then went where you said and exported RegInfo. I named it ''serial'' and put it in the same folder where is the installation of Xilisoft VCU and my script and it's not working

I tryed like this

Regwrite ( "serial.reg" )

You are using that function wrong. Read in AutoIt help how to use it. RegWrite is used to directly write to registry, not to use exported registry file.

RegWrite ( "keyname" [,"valuename", "type", value] )

Example:

RegWrite("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Test", "TestKey", "REG_SZ", "Hello this is a test")
