IcemanND Posted January 15, 2008 Author Share Posted January 15, 2008 It does NOT detect Visual Studio 2008 Team System.Get me a copy and I'll see if I can get it. Really, see if you can find the DigitalProductID value for it in the regsitry and tell me the full registry path to it and I'll see why it is not being found. You can use the Enterprise v2.28 and select the Settings Menu, then slect the last option to 'Search the entire registry for product keys' and it will hopefully return the value and the registry location for it.

jcarle Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 For Visual Studio 2008, there's a [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VisualStudio\9.0\Registration] registry key with three values : PIDKEY, ProductID and UserName.PIDKEY contains the actual product key without dashes.

IcemanND Posted January 16, 2008 Author Share Posted January 16, 2008 Did you install Visual Studio with a Transform file? Some previous version would put the PIDKEY in when a transform was use and the digitalproductid when manually installed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IcemanND Posted January 31, 2008 Author Share Posted January 31, 2008 @NorseLaQuet -Did you try this? or check for the pidkey value jcarle found in the registry on his machine?Really, see if you can find the DigitalProductID value for it in the registry and tell me the full registry path to it and I'll see why it is not being found. You can use the Enterprise v2.28 and select the Settings Menu, then slect the last option to 'Search the entire registry for product keys' and it will hopefully return the value and the registry location for it.

NorseLaQuet Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 Scratch that,inside [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VisualStudio\9.0\Registration]there was PIDKEY which had my CD key in it. I assumed it was encoded somehow, but it was not! Thanks alot, jcarle for tracking that down!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IcemanND Posted August 11, 2008 Author Share Posted August 11, 2008 You need a copy of comdlg32.ocx on your machine usually end sup on your system from some other software install. It's not a redistributable file so I can't include it with the executable but you can find it on the web for download, just put it in the same folder as the exe or in the system32 directory.

Juspion Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 First, thanks for the work.I ended up in this forum after hours spent on searching how to find the product key for an Office 97 installation, for which no key related to any type of registration exists in my registry. Only Access 97 has been installed, and is working.No software was able to find any info on this but Belarc Advisor, which gave me a Product ID only (all programs find my XP and Office 2K3 keys without problems).I wasn't able to use keydecoder to get the key from this PID, it stays on "collecting information from..."Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance !FG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaclaz Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 If I remember correctly, Office 97 DID NOT store the key in the Registry. (which would be a good reason why it cannot be found there ).During the install/setup the actual .exe was edited and user/registration was embedded into it.I am pretty sure that at least Excel worked like that, but of course my memory could be failing.(or maybe it was Office 4.3 that worked like that)jaclaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cokaric Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 Is there any chance you can post your source code or at least explain how does the encryption/decryption algorithm goes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
