cjdnzl Posted October 12, 2007 Report Share Posted October 12, 2007 Just bought PicturesToExe Deluxe And trying to register it. I have the instruction that was emailed to me but am still lost. Save attached file with your license key to any folder. Hoe do you do that?ThanksLarryOK, this is an unusual but easy way to do it.Open the email from Wnsoft, and locate the attached file called reg.txtDouble-click on the filename, and open it in Notepad - do not use a word processor.The text shown in Notepad will start with 'REGEDIT4', followed by random characters - which are the key.Click on File/Save As (NOT save), and choose the folder you want to put it in. A memory stick might make it easier to save to.Now, put the cursor in the filename line by clicking the mouse in the line, then hit the'End' key. This should take the cursor the the end of the filename.Now, type in '.reg' - without the quotes of course, so the filename will be reg.reg. Any file with the extension '.reg' can be run as a program, and will insert the contents of the file into the registry, which is what we want to do.Exit the email, and use Windows Explorer to find the file, then simply double-click the file. Presto, you will get a message saying the file has been inserted into the registry.Now, if you run PTE and click on Help/About PTE you should see 'Licensed to', your name, followed by 'Deluxe Edition'.You can save the file into the PTE folder, where you can use it directly if you have to do a reinstall at any stage.Colin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
