Registeration Issue
When I register IDM and every time I try to download a file my trial ends and a window pops up saying that I am using a counterfeit serial key (IDM still lets me download files but it very annoying to cross out the pop up window every time I want to download a file). I have also tried resetting the trial if IDM is blocked as instructed in the help section of the application but to no avail (window still pops up saying that I am using a counterfeit serial key even though IDM is not registered). Please look into this issue.
Edit: I did not expect so many people to reply to this issue. (You guys are so determined to get rid of the popup)
I have found another way to reset IDM.
From registry editor, remove HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-3681227441-695364207-2395006485-1001_Classes\WOW6432Node\CLSID{07999AC3-058B-40BF-984F-69EB1E554CA7} and your trial will be reset. after 30 days, repeat the same process.
Don't copy paste. Try to find it manually. Because "S-1-5-21-3681227441-695364207-2395006485-1001_Classes" the number in this part may change.

It does not work. When the PC restarts, the key you mentioned reappears. And the annoying dialog boxes to register the program still keep popping up.

It is meant to reappear. Deleting makes IDM believe that the trial has just started and will last next 30 days. And about that annoying dialog box, sadly I have found no way that will completely stop it. All the methods I have tried, it always keeps appearing.

If the creator isn't going to update his tool, I think you can create one that does this operation automatically.

@PBhadoo I have some questions. At what time can I run this bat file, before or after the trial period expires? and with this bat file it avoids the annoying IDM registration popups that always appear before or after each download?
@PBhadoo Thanks a lot mate,its working again. @Dhyfer1 mine expired and i clicked the .bat file and boom work like a charm.
@ManORock There are many bat files on the internet that are used to make IDM download again without problem after the trial period expired and many of them do work, but the only problem that these bat files haven't been able to solve yet is that before the download starts, or after the download finishes, you still get these two popups.
You say the bat file works, I believe you, I haven't tried it yet. But when you start or finish a download after having used the bat file, do you still get those pop-ups? Besides, in the bat file there is a line that says "C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Resource Kits\Tools\subinacl.exe" the subinacl.exe file you had to download it? because that file and the path I mentioned doesn't exist in Windows.
after the download finishes, you still get these https://github.com/J2TEAM/idm-trial-reset/issues/10#issuecomment-722286269.
@Dhyfer1 Seems changing the folder (which is Internet Download Manager inside Program Files (x86))'s Created and Modified Date Folder Attribute did the trick, tried that like 1-3 days testing and the pop up is gone.
after the download finishes, you still get these #10 (comment).

Could you please write a detailed description of what to did to fix the popups. Screenshots would be preferable. (basically a step by step guide)

Here my guide, atleast work for me but I cannot guaranteed that my method works for yall (my english is bad at describe something)
-
Download Attribute Changer then install it.
-
Kill IDM Process first.
-
Reset the Trial using this program.
-
Move "Internet Download Manager" from "Program Files (x86)" to whatever folder that not require Admin Rights to modify it.
-
Right click the folder and select 'Attribute Changer'.
-
Change "Created" and "Modified" date to nearest current date and month, and select "Folders only". (Make sure Modified is ahead Created).
-
Click "Apply".
-
Check if the reporting show modifed success (for example: 1 folder(s) modified, not 1 folder(s) failed).
-
Move back "Internet Download Manager' to "Program Files (x86)".
-
Use it normally?
@Estrol Does the solution you mention apply before or after the trial period ends?
- When you say Attribute Changer, you mean this?
- Earlier you told me "Seems changing the folder (which is Internet Download Manager inside Program Files (x86))'s Created and Modified Date Folder Attribute did the trick, tried that like 1-3 days testing and the pop up is gone." May I know how you changed the folder, and in what new path is your folder with the IDM installation files?

LOL That's right, at least I'm crazy trying to find a way to get rid of those annoying popups. What do you say, have you found a way?

This didnt work for me sadly
@PBhadoo Thanks a lot mate,its working again. @Dhyfer1 mine expired and i clicked the .bat file and boom work like a charm. @ManORock - Is yours still working properly? After running the .bat file from PBhadoo (I found and installed the subinac1 file, which was in earlier windows prog's) - as well as re-dating the folder, per Estrol's description - IDM is no longer embedding in Edge, or Chrome. FF still works. Even after uninstalling and reinstalling, it seems to have "broken" the ability of IDM to work in those two browsers. Idiot me didn't back-up my registry before doing it, either.
@JackJ59 Hi, I have some questions:
- After executing the PBhadoo .bat file, do these popups still appear or not for you?
- You re-dated the folder by following Estrol's steps, so Attribute Changer works fine for you? I say that because user @ipwwn said it doesn't work.
- Finally, why did you use the .bat file together with Attribute Changer?
i just used the bat file to reset, it resets my IDM to a state where 30 day trial is finished it was showing REGISTRATION option in HELP. Also it was popping up the registration form (n.b. NO POPUP REGARDING TRIAL FINISHED OR FAKE ID, ONLY THE REGISTRATION FORM). So for testing i closed IDM from taskmanager and oppened it again, it was showing the same pop up, but IDM is working fine, all my previous downloads are showing.
Most probably this bat file removes any previous regIDs. But no idea about trials, cuz even the registration form wasnt showing "no of days left"
Then i used the IDM TRIAL RESET software to reset the trial (no fake registration) and i closed idm and opened again, No popups till now and it is showing registered :)
