If a program has a 30-day trial, you are not supposed to use it any more after that period expires. Any attempts to do so would be against the law (at least to a certain extent). Nobody stops you from messing with the registry, but this discussion could be considered piracy.
I mean the easiest way to understand what a program is doing is to monitor it, so you need registry and file monitor tools. When you begin installation of the program, have these monitoring tools monitor just that program and see what it does with installation, save that monitored information, then monitor the program when you first run it, usually this will most likely always check the evaluation period, so it may pick up the files/keys that are part of the evaluation period. Save this information too. The installation, may or may not have checked the evaluation period, but if installation never went through because of an expired evaluation, it most likely had to check something on your computer for this, and if you were monitoring it, you would have picked it up. You could keep running the monitoring tools on every installation, until you determine all the things that are similar with each installation. The thing with monitoring tools however is knowing which file/registry entry is the right one. What I suggest is just a manual clean up of the registry of that program. If you know the Vendor of that Program e.g. (Mozilla, Microsoft, Nullsoft, etc). You could remove the keys from there that refer to just your program but before doing this, always back up your registry and make sure you uninstalled the program. So open up the Registry Editor by going Start | Run and typing 'regedit' without quotes. That will open up the registry editor, which is like a Windows Explorer interface with Folder Panel. The locations you're interested in should be HKCU\Software and HKLM\SOFTWARE and you need to find the vendor of your software, go into it, then see if you can see the name of your program within it. If you've backed up the registry, then click on the name of your program folder in there and delete it, make sure you check both locations for HK locations for it, and do the same. Now this does not guarantee it removed the evaluation period, this could be stored deeper inside the registry, which only the tools could help you understand this or you knew how to disassemble a program and understand what it does, but if you knew how to do this, you wouldn't need to ask this question at all. There's probably other things I've missed out on how they do evaluation periods, but it could be simple to something very complex. Sometimes just reverting the calendar back can work for you.

Yes, but it would be promoting piracy, so I don't think this post should continue.

30 day trial removal software
Extend A 30-day Trial I think you should contact the company that is giving you a product with 30 day trial and ask them is there is a way to extend the trial in the product, they probably will give you a new product key or something that can activate the software and you may use again for 30 days. If the company is no nice like always and they don't want to help you because they are very greedy hunger for money, jeopardy's companies, use a program called Ares Galaxy, or Emule in sourceforge.Net or visit phazeddl.Com and download retail version of all of the programs you want until the companies decide to give more than 30 days trial to customers who have the money but 30 days is not enough time to play with a program. -User
If this was had an opinion rating option (like yahoo answers is), I would give low ratings to all the people who is saying that this thread is considered piracy and that this discussion should end.
Use a program that tracks down the installation and then after that, delete the registry or files which contain the 30 day countdown, or totally delete all the installation files or install the program by changing the time/date and then change it back and then you'll have extra time. -reply by Jaw-Dun Thai Wraa But is there an easier way than editing the registry to do this? There must be something simple like re-setting the clock on your computer to an earlier time. Does this methood work? -reply by Evilgenuis124I may be wrong (and probably am) But, seems to me if you set your time/date forward prior to installing your program then install program then after installation is complete return time/date to original, wouldnt this give you more time??? -reply by Drsoos
extend trial period
Extend A 30-day Trial How do you get the file that is stopping you from re-installing once it's already on the computer? A monitoring program would not help as the file/registry key is already there. The problem with buying the programs (read antivirus) is that they all are bull****s and are not worth your money most of the time. Also the companies make fortunes from large organizations and governments. I have seen purchased version of norton after one year subscription expiration impregnating client's computer with virus during an update. That crook they are. A blank CD in India costs Rs. 10 and an Indian film DVD would cost Rs. 500. I do not support but thanks to piracy that the same original DVD today costs Rs. 25. Everybody is ready to buy good programs if companies stop cheating their customers. About the extension and all.. Can try a program word extractor to find out what is inside of a file and can manipulate. Don't download trash 'extension' programs - they'll screw up your computer. About the resetting - all other programs are screwed up when you change the time/date of your computer. You are definitely to end up with more trouble than you had started with.
