Beta Serial Key

[Andon]

I got the new client and a key from my friend to use this night offline mode
but friday evening when i got a key from fileplanet how can i change the key ?
uninstall then install is enough ? or delete the registry keys
if delete registry keys which help me ;)

This is why key sharing is not recommended. The key is stored in a file in your my documents under the test drive unlimited folder. Delete everything in this folder, and restart the game. If it does not prompt for a key, uninstall tdu, make sure that the my documents tdu folder has been deleted, and reinstall.

thanks bro ;)

The key is actually stored in your registry. Do a registry search for Test Drive Unlimited and find it. I would suggest that if you are uninstalling TDU, that you remove the registry keys in case the installer is not doing so.

Last time i poked at the registry, my pc wouldn't reboot. :bored:


But good info overall.

So you cleaned out the Test Drive Unlimited registry entires as well as the Test Drive Unlimited My Documents folder and it still "sees" your key?

How very strange.... Can you confirm you did this?

[Andon]

Uninstalled the game
then run regedit
find `` Test Drive Unlimited `` / `` Atari `` / `` Unlimited `` / Test Drive `` /
deleted all the keys
run registry mechanic
run a search (atari,test drive unlimited. vs. ) on a C:local disk * where i had insatlled deleted all files
reboot
now installing again i hope now it will ask a cd key when starting the game
thanks for your help BTA ;)

[Andon]

I make everything what Andon say and its still dont work for me .... i cant change key ehhh... any idea ? :(

[[BFs]GBesaw]

Verify that your have done all the steps posted above and make sure that you install the new client .. Should work.

[mud64]

I do this 3 times and still dont ask for key :/

[[BFs]GBesaw]

Just to confirm -- you have cleaned all the registry keys and before installing, checked to make sure that the test drive unlimited folder in you My Documents directory has been deleted before installing?

[mud64]

yep :( i do this like Abdon and you say and still nothing , dont know what to do... i dont want to reinstall sys. ;/

[[BFs]GBesaw]

You may have to reinstall if the steps above have been followed :( , but before you do, uninstall the game, and search all your drives for files with atari or test drive unlimited.

[Andon]

uninstall restart
also START / RUN / regedit
then find test drive unlimited vs. or atari search and delete
restart
install
also search C: for Test Drive / atari / Unlimited searches delete all ;)
SEE ABOVE what i write step by step

[[BFs]GBesaw]

Do you have more than one drive? If so, try searching all your drives.

[Andon]

search only which drive you have installed

[mud64]

thx for help but anyway I reinstall sys ;)

[Andon]

you love tdu :)
