Thread: Jan '09 Microcat

Some advice for anyone who may be interested:

The two limitations of this Microcat install is the need for a dongle (small hardware security device attached to the PC) and that they are time limited - you need to have a PC date inside the that set in the software.

Luckily there is no need to wait for the "Crack" mentioned above.

Dongle Limitation - on the disk you will find a folder called "-ó-¦-¦-+-ì-é-¦-+" it contains a file called MG16.dll, simple copy this into both windows/system32 directory and the directory Microcat is installed in (default is C:\MCLRE) overwriting the copies of that file in each of those folders..

That sorts the dongle problem..

Now for the time issue...

Take a look in c:\MCLE\McIndex\LRE directory you will find a file called Dset.daa. Open it with notepad you will see it's simply a number 200901. Change this to a year later.. ie 201001 and save. ( make sure you don't change the file name or extension)

You will find another copy of this file in the directory you saved the data. ( default c:\LRE_Data, treat this file in the same way.

You now have another year before you may want to edit the Dset.daa files again..

Enjoy......

Have mine up and running.
Having dalt with Microcat quite a bit in the past, when you install it it will ask you to restart your computer.

DONT!!
Make all the neccesary changes BEFORE you restart your computer and DONT OPEN MICROCAT UNTIL IT HAS BEEN CHANGED otherwise it has been known to not take the changes.
Set mine to 2015 and its fine
Big UP to ya Rick!!

Cheers
