    Actually I have very poor language skills.... I was amazed the manual had a lot of foreign languages and just wondered how you managed that. It gave it an "international" look. lol

    great tool, anyway you could automate the part where you enter language then enter C:IR4 after reboot, think it would be nice if you clicked yes and it rebooted with no user input.

    It was attempted with another script but it took like 15 min to complete due to the current technology involved ;)

    In fact you didn't even have to do anything but again it took an unreasonable length of time and really 2-5 min every 5-6 mo with the current build is...lol Not a problem ;)

    Wow I thought automating the running of c:IR4 with another batch file would be the easy part, but of course I know very little about anything lol,

    The process of using DISM is very extreme duration based. I guess if we could reset rearms in windows then we'd be better off but IR4 3.1 is pretty awesome

    one other thing I was wondering, I read a lot of your conversations with the AHK guys, and noticed that you posted your script over there, i assumed you didn't mind any1 looking at it, however I notice that your compiled .AHK file (.EXE) was compiled using the n/a password option, if I had known you did not want it decompiled I would not have done it but as I said I saw the script you posted on AHK forum and assumed you had no prob with any1 looking at it?

    I think IR4 2.9 was available but 3.0 and 3.1 are kept under wraps as to our decision regarding such matters. Really no changes as to function happened between later builds only the way we did the code and compiled into one .ahk instead of combo .bat/.ahk compiled .sfx .exe's

    Really MS probably won't change there trial format but even regarding the RE trial reset it seemed it was intentional meaning IR4 isn't really a threat to MS regarding activators that can be integrated ;)

    Any1 can decompile 3.0 or 3.1 even with a password or the n/a password option, so they are def not under wraps, and I see no valid reason for trying to make the script you used unavailable, I decompiled the files because I wanted to compare them to the ones you posted on AHK forum I have not even looked at the script I decompiled, after the decompiler told me it had decrypted the n/a password option before it was able to decompile, now that I know that you don't want the script read i guess I'll just trash the virtual machine I ran it on, and manually reset the rearms,on a new one I'm sure a lot of people are like me and want to no exactly how and what a program like this is doing when they run it on their machine, and no offense, I really can see no reason for you not making every letter of the script available, so others can look at it post exactly what every portion of script does so people know exactly what they are putting on their computer after it has been reviewed by as many people as possible, great tool good luck.

    Yea everyone except us mostly has closed source so your making an argument against all dev's here to give you what you want regarding looking at their code. However until 3.0 and 3.1 we did share all source code as MD has shared above so I guess you got what you wanted. As far as safety goes virtually no program is safer on everyone's comp than IR4 regarding what it does. In fact I remember asking MD if we could continue to post the code and he suggested to keep it under wraps so I took his programming expertise seriously and kept it secret and such.

    IR4 has been used by thousands of people not including torrents I made with IR4 and the RTM and pretty much zero complaints except a couple people that had messed up systems from previous solutions used so in this case looking at code is really a personal preference not a necessity or something

    You cannot use both Chew 7 and IR4 together. Only if you uninstall Chew7 and then install IR4, you will get the desired result.
