How to find Registration key in my installed HDSentinel?

Post by Zev67 »

I need to update my laptop to Win10. Before i do that, i need to make sure that all registration keys are backed up in case there is a problem after update. i am looking at Configuration-Registration screen and Registration key is blank, however, Program status says "Successfully registered and activated".

some help would be appreciated. thanks

To check the registration code, the easiest way is to open Configuration -> Send test report page and use the Create test report button.
This creates a report (may take some seconds) and then on the top, you may notice "(Registered, Activated, Registered user: xxxx " and if you scroll right, you can check the Key: field for the 15 digit registration code.

This may be good way to perform a clean reinstall, if it's preferred.

A different method is to use Configuration -> Update -> Backup configuration to save all settings, statistics, registration and activation details to a single file.

Then, after re-installation (or moving the software to a new system), this file can be read back by Configuration -> Update -> Restore configuration
and then the software will be registered, activated immediately (no activation required).

This can be useful if you prefer to keep existing statistics/logs for hard disk drives you want to use after re-installation.
