Component One Popup Closer

This was a project I had created at an old job. Our company used ComponentOne dlls in our projects, however we only had the trial or developer versions of the dlls on our development machines. The server where we built our software contained the proper license file that we paid for, but during development each time I would compile the project on my desktop during development and testing, I would end up with about 6 popup windows that had to be pressed in order for compiling to continue. This became VERY tedious, so I decided to write this quick software to speed up my development workflow.

IMPORTANT

I want to be VERY clear, I do not condone software piracy. I only condone getting rid of the nag screens in this situation where the license is already paid for by the company, but since development is done on a different machine the nag screen occurs.

What does this software do?

  • On startup it will place itself in the system tray and wait for certain windows to show up and when they do, it clicks "ok" and the window goes away.
  • It keeps count of each nag screen that it has closed since startup.
  • Can be configured to run on startup via the registry
