TextPad 5

[Nucleus]

Hi,

Where does TextPad 5 save it's registration Information?

Thank you

[MagicAndre1981]

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Helios\TextPad 4\License

this is for Version 4.

I know, I had version 4. But now I need that info for version 5.

[MagicAndre1981]

search for Helios, perhaps this helps

I've already searched "Helios", "TextPad" and "TextPad 5". No luck.

ok, download Process Monitor from Sysinternals and run the tool in capturing mode. Now start TextPad5 and bringt the Process Monitor Window to the front and stop capturing. Now filter for Textpad.exe and look what files and keys Textpad reads, so you should be able to find the place where the information are stored.

After opening textpad and filtering, there were 13.825 events just for textpad. It will take me 6 months to check them all out :|

TextPad 5 stores its license information in:

[HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Helios\TextPad 5\License]

Hope this helps,

Mr Olrich
