Trial time limitSolved

Hi!

Can I please ask, if the Trial version checks against the internet from time to time, or after the installation, the checks are only local?

I have tried a simple check from the tutorial:

uint32_t trialFlags = TA_VERIFIED_TRIAL | TA_SYSTEM;HRESULT hr = TA_UseTrial(taHandle, trialFlags, NULL);hr = TA_TrialDaysRemaining(taHandle, trialFlags, &trialDays);

I have set the Trial length to 30 days. After I installed my app, I have changed the local date in Windows to year before (2016).

The remaining Trial days jumped to 395 days...

Is there any way how to solve this problem? Are there more checks internally, and the time remaining is just showing incorrect value, but in fact, the TA_UseTrial would return error after those 30 days anyway?

Or maybe do the "Custom license fields" behave better in this regard?

Thank you very much for any help!

Best regards,Maria

Hey Maria,

This is covered here: https://wyday.com/forum/t/3906/able-to-extend-trial-days-by-changing-system-time/#post-18818

Short answer: "cooked up" experiments that don't match real-world behavior will also be handled in TA 4.1. Real world behavior is already handled fine in TA 4.0 and will be handled even better in 4.1 (because we continually improve our client-side fraud detection).

Thank you for the reply!

TA 4.1 is now out.
