Hi, sorry if my question is basic but I'm a beginner and would appreciate the help. The program I'm trying to crack (https://mega.nz/#F!QQtAFaba!4ReQPlzKKJoezkIIFV_jWA) uses turbo activate as protection. Theres a lot of different different modules which makes it quite difficult for me. I've tried using tutorials to guide me but the complexity makes it hard to block all the checks. I was hoping for some guidance as to how to crack this, thank you.

Since you are not asking a specific question and not showing anything you have accomplished on your own as far as cracking this protection, I suggest that you go here:

and place a request.

The only way - is to replace all calls to TurboAktivate for yours. Reverse TurboAktivate this is very long. I managed this. In brief, you have to isolate the TurboActivate from the main application.

Sorry for not being specific before, i thought it would be useless. What I've been trying to do is alter the integers on the stack but I'm having difficulty following the opcodes. To replace calls to turbo activate, is there a specific opcode i could use?

If you do not want a call to happen, just replace it with NOPs (No Operation). On Intel x86 CPU family it is 0x90 hex.
It can be different on other CPUs, so look it up.

I really hope I understand your problem correctly and give you the right advice.
But in general, I would suggest getting better understanding of assembly language and processors.

Not sure I understand the part about "integers on the stack". What are you trying to do there?

You must intercept the returns from TurboAktivate. Either through the interception or to write your TurboAktivate. I have done the interception. In my case, I changed the values of the following procedures TurboAktivate:
IsActivate,
IsGenuin,
GetFutureValue. Maybe something more. The protected application works with the returned data, here you need to sweat for it

I also changed Turboaktivate.dat to correct. Because it is necessary give the code for checking of the license

Data of the successful activation are stored in:
C:\ProgramData\icsxml
C:\ProgramData\DIBsection\
C:\ProgramData\ms-drivers


Good luck.

When u say change values, do you mean changing the values when it compares values? Also what do you mean by change turboaktivate.dat to correct?

Sorry, i mean where the program uses things like ldc.i4.0 and compares strings i was trying to change these values so a wrong serial would work and right serial wouldn't? But i think i have the wrong idea.

No, you need to determine what values should be returned. And substitute theirs.
The most difficult is the function GetFutureValue

You can download the trial version and activate it. But i was mistaken (It was a year ago, I had already forgotten), i did not succeed like this. When activated, the program data stored in the TurboAktivate.dat

besides that, TA is an online based protection, so it'll ask for online check from time to time...

Hi, can someone crack me a program protected with turboactivate please?
