I did the following:
Define the compilation constant ILS_FORMS in the Build tab of the Project Properties.

Add the following source code files to your project:

EncryptedLicense.cs
EncryptedLicenseProvider.cs
EvaluationMonitor.cs
RegistryEvaluationMonitor.cs or IsolatedStorageEvaluationMonitor.cs
EvaluationDialog.cs
EvaluationDialog.resx
LicenseUtilities.cs
LicenseResources.resx - set the following properties
Custom Tool: ResXFileCodeGenerator
Custom Tool Namespace: Infralution.Licensing.Forms
For simple Encrypted Licensing include:

EncryptedLicenseInstallForm.cs
EncryptedLicenseInstallForm.resx

Then I did the following:

Add Licensing Code to your Application
If you are evaluating ILS then you need to add a reference to one of following assemblies to your project:

Infralution.Licensing.Forms - for Windows Forms based applications and controls
Infralution.Licensing.WPF - for Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) based applications and controls
Infralution.Licensing.ASP - for ASP.NET applications and components
Infralution.Licensing.CF - for Compact Framework applications and components
These assemblies contain the same core licensing classes but have different implementations of the user interface forms and dialogs. When you purchase ILS we will supply the full source code for these assemblies (for both C# and VB) which will allow you to incorporate the relevant classes directly into your own DLL or EXE eliminating the need for this reference.

Paste the LICENSE_PARAMETERS String (that we generated earlier) into your code as shown in the examples below. Change the value of _licenseFile constant to specify a unique location for your product's license file. Change the "MyEvaluationPassword" string to a unique value for your product. Note that this password is only used to generate the hidden location for the evaluation data stored on the user's computer - you should NOT use the product password here.

The actual code that does the license check is very simple. First, create an instance of the EncryptedLicenseProvider class or AuthenticatedLicenseProvider class (for AuthenticatedLicenses), then call the GetLicense method to get the installed license (if any) from the given file using the validation parameters. If there is no installed license then this method returns null (or Nothing in VB).

Encrypted Licensing Example
This example demonstrates the typical usage of the EncryptedLicenseProvider class to license an application. The application creates an instance of the EncryptedLicenseProvider and uses the GetLicense()()() method to check for an installed license. If there is no valid installed license the EvaluationDialog is displayed. This dialog allows the user to either continue their evaluation (if the trial period has not expired), exit the application or install a license using the EncryptedLicenseInstallForm. The VB.NET code uses the VB.NET application framework. The MyApplication class was created by clicking on the View Application Events button in the Project Properties page.

CopyC#
using System;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using Infralution.Licensing.Forms;
namespace LicensedApp_CS

I opened the project and started the application. It started without requiring registration.

What do I need to do?

I assume you are using C#? Can you maybe post the code from your Main() method to the forum to assist us in seeing exactly what you have implemented. I would suggest stepping through your main method to see what is occurring.

If you haven't changed the license file location or the product passwords from those supplied in the sample applications then it is possible that your application is simply finding the existing sample application license (if you had run the sample previously and installed a license).

Typically when creating your own products you need to create a new Product in License Tracker, provide a different Product Password and Authentication Password and generate the LICENSE_PARAMETERS to paste into your code. In your code you should also change the location of the license file to somewhere unique for your product.

I found out what I was doing wrong.

Changed code as follows:

namespace HoldemMyWay

{
static class Program
{
/// <summary>
/// The main entry point for the application.
/// </summary>
///

/// <summary>
/// License Validation Parameters copied from License Tracker
/// </summary>
private const string LICENSE_PARAMETERS =
@"<EncryptedLicenseParameters>
<ProductName>My Product</ProductName>

Now it works.

Thanks,
