摘要： A method for reactivation of software products includes activating a first software product associated with a reactivation policy group. A hardware identifier derived from the computer hardware configuration is bound with the first software product activation. A second software product is activated having an associated reactivation binding list. Reactivation is requested for the first software product and an updated hardware identifier is associated with a reactivation policy group of the first software product. The second software product may be spared the request for reactivation if the second product can be associated with the reactivation of the first software product given the binding list is compatible with the reactivation policy group.

摘要： Systems and methods for implementing a hardware ID with time- and weight-based flexibility use a hardware ID (HWID) including identifying information about hardware components. When software is run, a current HWID is generated. When the current HWID is compared to a stored HWID to determine if the two HWIDs match, a time vector and a weight vector are used in the comparison. A running matching score is kept of matches. For each hardware component, the weight vector indicates the weight given to a correct match of the hashed value for the hardware component. For example, if the weight value for the hardware component is three and there is a match, then the running total is increased by three. For each hardware component, the time vector may indicate an expiration period after which a change in the component may be allowed. For example, if the expiration period for the component is one year, and one year has passed since activation, the running total may be increased even though the component's information in the verification HWID does not match the current component information.
摘要翻译：用于实现具有基于时间和权重的灵活性的硬件ID的系统和方法使用包括识别关于硬件组件的信息的硬件ID（HWID）。当软件运行时，会生成当前的HWID。当将当前HWID与存储的HWID进行比较以确定两个HWID是否匹配时，在比较中使用时间矢量和权重向量。运行匹配的比赛保持不变。对于每个硬件组件，权重向量表示给出硬件组件的散列值正确匹配的权重。例如，如果硬件组件的权重值为3，并且匹配，则运行总计增加3。对于每个硬件组件，时间矢量可以指示可以允许组件改变的过期时段。例如，如果组件的到期期限是一年，而且自启动以来已经过去一年，即使组件在验证HWID中的信息与当前组件信息不匹配，也可能增加运行总计数。

摘要： A metadata-based application model for software systems provides for the integration and storing of application metadata with the application itself effectively replacing the system registry. In calling or updating the application components or modules, queries to the metadata within the application folders returns references to the files with metadata that matches the query. The component or modules are called or updated within the file using the returned reference. The present invention also provides a data structure comprising a data field for the application code and another field for the metadata.

摘要： A licensing system provides for enabling and disabling features based on the product key included with a software product. A distribution channel associated with the software product is identified. The distribution channel is identified according to a channel ID obtained from the product key. A set of default features associated with the application is also identified. The set of default features are modified to produce a new set of features for the application when the channel ID is associated with a modifier. The new set of features is applied to the software product such that a use experience and features of the software product is controlled by the product key.

摘要： This document describes techniques that enable an application to operate as if the application were running on its native computing system when it is actually running on another computing system. The techniques may do so by building a portable registry having metadata particular to the application, which can be stored in a portable device along with that application. When that portable device is connected to another computing system, the portable registry may be used to supplement or supplant the other computing system's registry to enable the application to operate with its particular functionality.

摘要： Described herein are one or more implementations for facilitating installation of software products. In at least one implementation, one or more installation databases (e.g., MSI databases) are stored on the computer-readable media (e.g., a CD-ROM or hard disk). The installation databases include data configured to be loaded onto a computing system when a software product is installed onto that computing system. Also stored on that media is one or more executable installation components (e.g., MSI installer) that, when executed, directs installation of the software product from the one or more installation databases. With this implementation, components of the one or more installation databases are stored on the computer-readable media in a defined hierarchical directory structure, which includes, at least, a root and one sub-level, the sub-level comprising, at least, two sub-directories

摘要： An anti-piracy system reduces the opportunity for piracy and illicit use of software products by requiring each software product to be registered for a single computer. If a user attempts to install the software product on another computer, the software product will recognize a different hardware composition and disable itself. During installation, the software product generates a hardware ID that identifies the set of hardware components and sends it and a product ID to a registration authority. The registration authority computes a registration ID from the product ID and the hardware ID and sends the registration ID back to the software product. Each time the software product is subsequently launched, the software product computes its own test ID from the product ID and hardware ID using the same algorithm employed by the registration authority. The software product then compares the test ID to the registration ID. If the two match, the software product is enabled; otherwise, if no match occurs, the software product is locked. The system flexibly accommodates a situation in which the user upgrades one or a few components in the computer without creating a new machine. The software product determines whether a new set of hardware components in the computer is substantially different from the original set of hardware components. If not substantially different, the upgraded computer is more like the original computer and the software product is permitted to operate; otherwise, the computer more resembles a new computer and the software product is prevented from operating.
摘要翻译：反盗版系统通过要求将每个软件产品注册到单个计算机来减少盗版和非法使用软件产品的机会。如果用户尝试将软件产品安装在另一台计算机上，则软件产品将识别不同的硬件组合并禁用自身。在安装过程中，软件产品会生成一个硬件ID，用于标识该组硬件组件，并将其发送给产品ID至注册机构。注册机构从产品ID和硬件ID计算注册ID，并将注册ID发送回软件产品。软件产品每次随后启动，软件产品将使用与注册机构使用相同的算法从产品ID和硬件ID计算自己的测试ID。然后软件产品将测试ID与注册ID进行比较。如果两者匹配，则软件产品启用; 否则，如果不匹配，则软件产品被锁定。系统灵活地适应用户升级计算机中的一个或几个组件而不创建新机器的情况。该软件产品确定计算机中的一组新的硬件组件是否与原始的硬件组件集显着不同。如果没有太大的不同，升级后的电脑更像是原来的电脑，软件产品被允许操作; 否则，计算机更类似于新的计算机，并且软件产品被阻止运行。
