This repository provides a tool that unlocks premium features in StartIsBack and StartAllBack, which are programs that modify the Windows 10 and 11 appearance and behavior. Instead of paying for a license, this tool patches the software so it runs in an activated state. How it works is fairly straightforward: the tool modifies the core program files (DLLs) that StartIsBack uses to check whether you have a valid license. Once modified, the software believes it's been properly licensed and grants you access to all features. The README notes that Windows may show a "signature check failed" warning, which is harmless and just means the modified files aren't digitally signed by the original publisher. If that message bothers you, you can either sign the files yourself using a certificate, or use an included workaround file that makes the program report "license activated" instead. People use this because StartIsBack and StartAllBack are useful customization tools, but they cost money, and many users would rather not pay. This crack removes that barrier entirely. It's aimed at Windows users who want to customize their desktop environment without purchasing a license. One thing worth noting: the README includes a note asking users to support the original developer if possible, which is somewhat unusual for a crack tool. The source code for the patch components is also made available, so technically-minded people can see exactly what's being modified and how it works.
