Bypassing WinEdt registration

WinEdt is a really cool LaTeX editor for Windows. Its evaluation period is one month. When it starts complaining, what you have to do is to delete some entries in the registry and the evaluation period will start all over again. To achieve this, follow the steps:


  • Go to Start->Run... and type regedit to launch the Windows registry editor.
  • In the registry keys tree, select HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\WinEdt and delete the two entries named Inst and Install Date.

After this, you won't have to bother for another month. However, if you find the software really useful, you should pay its author the really humble fee and use it without any constraints.
