<div id="how-does-it-work" class="section level2">
<h2>How does it work?</h2>
<ul>
<li>IDM stores the data related to trial and activation in across
various registry keys. Some of these keys are locked to protect them
from tampering and data is stored in a pattern to track the fake serial
issue and the remaining trial days. To activate it, script here simply
generate those registry keys by triggering a few downloads in IDM and
identifies those registry keys and locks them so IDM can’t edit and
view. That way IDM can not show the warning that it’s activated with a
fake serial key.</li>
