TheScarms^(tm) AppSentinel lets you quickly and easily create evaluation versions of your software and stop unauthorized copying and unregistered use of your programs!

Create Safe and Secure Trial, Demo, Evaluation or Rental Versions of Your Software

• Evaluation versions will have trialware functionality like the number of days or number of runs1 left and checking to see if the system clock was turned back!

• Evaluation versions of your applications can be turned into the full, non-expiring version by entering a Registration ID. This functionality can be added to your Windows software whether it is an .EXE, .DLL, COM component, Excel application...

• AppSentinel simplifies application rental! Your application can expire at regular intervals. Users will have to re-register with you to renew their subscription and use your application for another period.

Copy Protect Your Software and Prevent Sharing of Your Software

• Reliably prevent the unlicensed use of your application! Users will not be able to copy and run your program on another computer.

• If your application is copied to another PC it will expire when its trial period ends. The user must contact you and officially register the application on that computer.

• Attempts to use registration information from a licensed copy of your application in another copy of your program will fail! The special Registration ID required to unlock your application is generated from an Evaluation ID and Machine ID. Because these values are unique to a specific computer, Registration IDs cannot be copied!
