    Ok, i'm using this software called Poker-Spy to play along side with PartyPoker. It allows me to see the players betting patterns. Now, the trial version has expired and when I uninstall and install it again it knows that it has expired.

    My question is: How do I find the file that is telling the software that I've used it before?

    Thanks in Advance!

    The whole point is that the trial has expired. Buy the software! You won't find the registry entry because it's likely encrypted so you cannot directly search the registry for it.

    The only way to keep using such a trial over and over it if you have imaged your drive beforehand and restore the drive image when the program expires. This too is cheating the software company whose product you trialed.

    Most software is cheap compared to other worldly goods. A pair of shoes wears out eventually, software can be used almost eternally, or until a newer operating system no longer supports the program code.

    Couldn't have said it better myself. That's all the help you'll get here...
