<li>IDM stores the data related to trial and activation 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, the script here simply
generates those registry keys by triggering a few downloads in IDM,
identifies those registry keys, and locks them so IDM can’t edit and
view them. That way IDM cannot show the warning that it’s activated with
a fake serial key.</li>
