Hi Bigkang,

In the most common way you should use the following functions:
- Registration Features - Common - Allow Execution only if registered
- Registration Features - Registration Dialog.

Users will run the program, see this dialog, send you back Hardware ID. Based on this, you will generate a key and send it back to user.

See this video for more info: http://www.softwareprotection.info/2011 ... protector/

This happens only if you've protected the file with one project file, but trying to generate a key with another project.

if the user sends his hardware id, how to generate a key for him? Do i have to generate the key using, Tools>Key Generator? or Tools>Export Key Generator? Do i have to edit again the unprotected exe or the protected one?

You have to open your .enigma project file in Enigma Protector and generate a key using Tools - Keys Generator. That's only a one way, you may also export keygen, use License Manager etc.

thanks for the very fast reply, i'll try your suggestions. but my problem is, how can I add the hardware id of a user when generating a key, it always says "hardware id is invalid, when i put the hardware id in the key generator?

As I told, I think that you are using not same project file for protecting the file and for generating a key.

Make a new project, configure it, save it, protect the file, send file to client, ask to return you Hardware ID, open saved project file in Enigma Protector and generate a key. Using these recommendations you'll succeed.

Hi dear Enigma,
I am trying to generate a new key for myself. Whenever I use Enigma Protector and use the Hardware ID which is auto-populated in the trial expired version exe file, it comes up with "hardware id invalid" for my own machine. How can I get that to work ? Also its gives and error "file is already protected" so what should I do. Thank you.
