totoymola Posted November 28, 2004 Posted November 28, 2004 UltraISO Media Edition Version 7.2.5.926I can't find the thread about this, so I decided to start another one.I remember I saw a silent installation method for this before. Some people says the serial is encrypted and machine dependent, so it will not work on other machine. Someone mentioned the /saveinf switch too. But I don't agree with that (maybe for this version only), because this method worked for me. This is what I did to install and register this silently.start /wait UltraISO.exe /silentregedit /s ultraiso.regThis is the contents of the regfile.REGEDIT4[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\EasyBoot Systems\UltraISO\5.0]"UserName"="Your Name Here""Registration"="Your_Encrypted_Serial_Here"[HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-299502267-179605362-725345543-1003\Software\EasyBoot Systems\UltraISO\5.0]"UserName"="Your Name Here""Registration"="Your_Encrypted_Serial_Here"It is true that the serial is encrypted, but NOT machine dependent. And the important part of the regfile is the [HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-299502267-179605362-725345543-1003\Software\EasyBoot Systems\UltraISO\5.0]. Without this, your version will not be registered.You can use /verysilent switch if you want. I just prefer /silent because I want to see the progress bar.
1chaoticadult Posted November 28, 2004 Posted November 28, 2004 @totoymolaIf you had search harder you would have found these two threads: http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showto...032&hl=ultraiso and http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showto...750&hl=ultraiso. Don't see how you couldn't find these threads. This has been discussed so many times its worn out.
totoymola Posted November 28, 2004 Author Posted November 28, 2004 @drthawhizkidWell, I posted this as a new thread, because for one reason, this is different. It doesn't use any jscript, and it proves that it is NOT machine specific. If you check the threads that you gave me, you will see the difference. And the other one talks about an obsolete version.By the way, is there something wrong for posting a topic THAT HELPS? I'm sorry, but I don't understand why you keep bragging about posts of other people. If this is a stupid question that has been answered serveral times, I will understand. But if you do your own search, you will hardly find a method that is similar to this.
Bilou_Gateux Posted November 28, 2004 Posted November 28, 2004 Take care that the SID ie S-1-5-21-299502267-179605362-725345543-1003is different for each machine.Your registry import will not work for another user / computer.In order to know what a computer's machine SID is, PsGetSid from Sysinternals makes reading a computer's SID easy, and works across the network so that you can query SIDs remotely. PsGetSid also lets you see the SIDs of user accounts and translate a SID into the name that represents it.
spachtler Posted November 28, 2004 Posted November 28, 2004 after the silent installation, i do the registration via anautoit-script:$var = RegRead("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\UltraISO_is1", "DisplayIcon")sleep(1000)run($var)Blockinput(1)winwait("UltraISO", "ToolBar", 7)if winexists("UltraISO", "ToolBar") thenprocessclose("ultraiso.exe")Blockinput(0)exitendifwinwait("Willkommen", "registrieren")controlclick("Willkommen", "registrieren", "TButton4")winwait("Registrieren", "OK")controlsend("Registrieren", "OK", "TEdit4", "Dave")controlsend("Registrieren", "OK", "TEdit5", "xxxx")controlsend("Registrieren", "OK", "TEdit3", "xxxx")controlsend("Registrieren", "OK", "TEdit2", "xxxx")controlsend("Registrieren", "OK", "TEdit1", "xxxx")controlclick("Registrieren", "OK", "TButton2")winwait("Prompt", "OK")controlclick("Prompt", "OK", "Button1")Blockinput(0)exitworks pretty good...
CoffeeFiend Posted November 28, 2004 Posted November 28, 2004 Like it was mentionned before in this thread-using a SID like that won't work. if you wanted to read/write to different SIDs, you have to write some code/script to resolve them first.-it's been thoroughly discussed before. if you just import (your previsouly exported/edited):Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\EasyBoot Systems\UltraISO\5.0]"Language"="1033""UserName"="XXXXX""Registration"="XXXXXXXXXXXX" it'll work fine. (Ue your own info, and of course 1033 is for english (it is language dependant).Unless this has changed in a very recent build? Either ways, most likely your way won't work as it doesn't import the language info, and using the SID sure won't work.
totoymola Posted November 28, 2004 Author Posted November 28, 2004 Really? If so, then why did it work on my other machine? I tested this before I post it.
vcBlackBox Posted November 28, 2004 Posted November 28, 2004 Really? If so, then why did it work on my other machine? I tested this before I post it. The reason why it might work on your other machine is if that machine has the same SID. If I recall, it's possible for your second machine to contain the same SID if you clone it (disk-imaged) or use the same usernames/computer name/serial.

Mine is a mce2005 notebook, and the other one is a new vaio desktop with xp home (pre-installed by sony). They are not on the same network, and they have different computer names and log-on names.
Astalavista Posted November 29, 2004 Posted November 29, 2004 Greetings and Salutations to All!I would like to declare that this method does work. I hv tested it on my pc and laptop. Another GREAT job Totoymola!!! congratspwede na ba yan pag bobola ko?
totoymola Posted November 29, 2004 Author Posted November 29, 2004 Haha! Thanks for the confirmation! (at sa bola) Guys, please try this method first before judging.. I tried this on 2 computers now, and Astalavista has tested this on his laptop and pc too.By the way, about the language, [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\EasyBoot Systems\UltraISO\5.0]"Language"="1033"I don't think that is necessary, because it is installed in english by default. And if you don't include that, it will automatically generated just like the other registry entries.
CoffeeFiend Posted November 29, 2004 Posted November 29, 2004 @totoymola: If your install arleady writes the 1033 to the registry, then yeah it wouldn't be needed. Not sure if it was written at install or at first run. (can't be bothered checking, it doesn't hurt to have it there either ways) Unless you let us know otherwise, the SID you used is the one for the current user, so you're really importing the same info twice (if the SID actually resolves to anything as SIDs are (mostly) unique). So effectivly being nothing more than the other info pointed out before.I would like to declare that this method does work. I hv tested it on my pc and laptop.Of course it still works. It's the same information as people have come up with before - plus some useless info abotu a SID that doesn't resolve to anything. Perhaps yuo don't know what they are or how they work? Tested working (not just by me either), works fine without the machine specific SID info, on more than a PC too.Another GREAT job Totoymola!!! congratsAnd we already know you like your buddies work a lot... You sound like he's invented the wheel or something.
totoymola Posted November 29, 2004 Author Posted November 29, 2004 I don't know why but it doesn't work for me without the [HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-299502267-179605362-725345543-1003\Software\EasyBoot Systems\UltraISO\5.0]. I'm not sure about the other versions, but at least this what works for me for this version. Obviously, Astalavista just trying to instult me.
