Alcohol 120 v1.9.2.1705 Registration Failure !

[xtremexxx]

Hey there,

This is so stressing, I have tried many times to register this app, cmdlines reg, and in runonceex and failure, if I run it manualy it works, I bet it doesn't apply to global at the time it's ran

using:

[HKEY_USERS\.Default\Software\Alcohol Soft\Alcohol 120%\Info]"UserName"="username"

"Company"="Home"

"SerialNo"="key"

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Alcohol Soft\Alcohol 120%\Info]

"UserName"="username"

"Company"="Home"

"SerialNo"="key"

And yes they are valid keys.

Thankz

I use the same but with [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Alcohol Soft\Alcohol 120%\Info] too.

Sorry to say I have tried but failed again, no luck, this is really p***ing me off...

Copy :

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_USERS\.Default\Software\Alcohol Soft\Alcohol 120%\Info]"UserName"="XXXX"

"Company"="YYYYY"

"SerialNo"="ZZZZZ"

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Alcohol Soft\Alcohol 120%\Info]

"UserName"="XXXX"

"Company"="YYYYY"

"SerialNo"="ZZZZZ"

and save to $Oem$\$1

execut with

regedit /s

duh... that's already what he's doing and it's not working... (and location of .reg file doesn't matter at all). Perhaps it might matter if it's applied before or after installing the app?

Have you tried:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Alcohol Soft\Alcohol 120%\Info]

"UserName"="xxxx"

"Company"="xxxx"

"SerialNo"="xxxxx"

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Alcohol Soft\Alcohol 120%\Info]

"UserName"="xxxx"

"Company"="xxxx"

"SerialNo"="xxxx"

OK, here are the lines stripped straight from my WORKING unattended CD (s/n removed, of course:

;Alcohol120 Registration
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Alcohol Soft\Alcohol 120%\Info]
"SerialNo"="-"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Alcohol Soft\Alcohol 120%\Info]
"SerialNo"="-"

The other lines are not necessary AFAIK, the app doesn't complain for me.

I hope ppl quit posting wrong key strings for this app, I had to try a buncha times before getting this because of wrong advice (although glad to accept any help offered...)

Good Luck!

I have good news, it worked now...

The problem was fixed in my cmdlines... Initialy I ran it there, but after that it didn't work, because I was using %systemdrive% variable, then tried a cmd and all was fine So if you run that tweak at cmdlines properly all is fine

Have you tried using installrite to monitor a fresh install of aclohol, including registration, and then build an install kit?

I used this and it works perfectly.

I then just call the installkit exe in RunOnceEx.cmd

I just edited the msi file using WinInstallLE and added the reg info in the msi.

I just edited the msi file using WinInstallLE and added the reg info in the msi.

How'd you do that?

I'm interested in learning trying this out.

Especially if I could do it with other .msi files.

Edit:

NM figured it out.

Your suggested program, "WinInstallLE", has a slight learning curve.

After some trial and error I got it down.
