hi.
i have a piece of software that i would like to install on my PC that once installed requires a login username and password. once you have signed in thats it, no one else can sign in to the same piece of software from the same PC.
i did try "InstallWatch" which i thought would allow me to uninstall the registry entries that were limiting my use of the software, but this didnt work.
i would like to run the same piece software on my PC but for other people in my house with their own usernmae and password.
is there a way to do this on a virtual basis?
i dont really want/need to install another OS, just a piece of sotware that is effectively running on a sperate PC.
any help appreciated.
p.s the software in question is NOT software you have to pay for but is limited to one account per PC. i am not trying to bypass copyright/Licence.
