Software protection

Unlocking goes in three steps :

  • you must provide your machine’s signature
  • I build the related key
  • you install the key

Signature

To obtain your machine’s signature, open the “Configuration” screen, select the calculated signature and send it to me by email. Please give me, for every signature, a unique identifier for the machine (brand and model or user name).

Installing the key

The key I provide is made of two parts :

  • a .REG file
  • one or more .CBK file(s)

The .REG file must be executed (double click) at the initial program installation. It is not necessary to re-execute it for every key update.

.CBK files must be placed in Le Sage’s installation folder (usually c:\LeSage), not in subfolders. Key updates will overwrite previous ones.

Error messages

If, after installing the keys, you are still in demonstration mode, Le Sage will give you two different error messages :

  • Client code not found : you haven’t executed the .REG. Double click on its icon and say “Yes” when Windows asks if you are sure.
  • Key not found : Le Sage can’t find the .CBK files in its installation folder (c:\LeSage). Make sure they are not in a subfolder.
