It is possible to create a script that will disallow user to change the time through Taskbar "time and calender" or through command "through Date, and Time command" ... but what if user changes the date through an external program?... it too is possible to detect a sudden increase or decrease in date without the Hour Time being 23 and min 59... BUT... what will u do if the user changes time when the script is closed or when the system boots,,,?... a solution is possible for this too but that requires u to run the pc (and script) every day... or after SPECIFIC time... anyways... these were the points u should think of when making a script like this (i already tried something like this... but didnt finish) ...
So it'll be better if you give all the details about your script, your main GOAL, and the ways USER is allowed to change time...

I did wrote a Trial-Version before, but it is still not really save!
It had a living time of 5 days (= quite short) and checks the date.
If date is higher or lower the period it doesn't work.

I do not know a better way without doing reg-changing.
A possibility would be to increase a counter in registry up to a defined number of programmstarts (maybe with a check if the counter was increased this day already).
This wouldn't result in a specific period, but would limit the programmstarts to a specific count!

I'll try this soon...

Ages ago I've tried to bypass nagging apps (because of the challenge :twisted:). Therefore I've used a tool which has monitored every step during an installation to identify any changes on the system/files. That gave me the idea where to screw :roll:

What you try to accomplish is still a challenge. Have fun. :D
