[Tips] how to bypass the maxtocode 15-day limit

Maxtocode is an encryption tool for. NET software. For details, refer to the official website:

Maxtocode is an advance Software Encrypting. net code, it uses the Windows lower level technology. DOTNET is symbol of the mainstream programming language, it has high efficiency, strong function, artistic interface, durable, rich in the CLR common run base resource, and New Language C # already submitting for the specified sion standard. it is a high intensity protecting tool, which was independently developed by aiasted. soft.

It can encrypt Applications created by C #, VB. NET, ASP. NET, C ++/CLI, Web Service, application service, library class, msil.

At present, the latest version of the official website is 3.0.6, and the version I am using is 3.0.3. This version is not very good enough to crack the version, so do not think about 3.0.6.
The so-called cracked version does not seem to be completely cracked. The generated encryption program can only be used for 15 days and will not be used for more than 15 days.

A simple test is performed as follows:
1. Generate a simple. NET application called a.exe
2. Use maxtocodeto encrypt a.exeand access B .exe.
3. Change the date to tomorrow.
4. Use maxtocodeto encrypt a.exeand access c.exe.
5. Compare B .exeand c.exe, and find that the two are of the same size, but the content is different in multiple places.
6. B .exeand c.execan only be used for 15 days, but c.exewill be used for one day more than B .exe.

So, if I adjust the current date to the future, can the generated application be used now?

Perform the following tests:
1. Adjust the system time to January 1, 2099, and the month and the day are not modified.
2. Use maxtocodeto encrypt a.exeand access d.exe.
3. Adjust the system time to the current correct time
4. Run d.exe and find everything is OK.
5. Adjust the system time to run d.exe on a random basis in the future. Everything is OK.

Conclusion:
The time limit of maxtocode is only from the last 15 days after the generation, and is unavailable since then, but not limited before.
I can even write its pseudo code:
If diff (now, generatedate)> = 15 days then exit

From the perspective of software testing, this judgment method is obviously incomplete.
From the user's point of view, I want to give a big red flower!
You are so talented! You have no way!

Inference:
Using its features, it seems that you can easily generate a trial version with a specified deadline ......

Note:
If the system runs other software, such as Kaspersky,Please close it before the modification date, and open it after the generation end is changed back to the correct time.Otherwise, you will be at your own risk ......
