As others have mentioned: | |
This workaround only works for versions 2.* | |
In other words: It's outdated and doesn't work anymore | |
Scroll down for community posts! | |

Original gist: | |
Obviously for educative purposes only. | |
Furthermore, this DOESN'T activate BabelEdit permanently. | |
If you like the software, buy it, the devs deserve it. | |
Since I have no money to buy it, I discovered a workaround for unlimited trials. | |
It's quite a annoying workaround, but ... it works! | |
Firstly go to "c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\" and open the "hosts" file in Notepad/Notepad++/VSCode/Sublime/Atom/whatever as admin (if you don't open it as admin, it won't let you save it). | |
Add this line at the end of the file: | |
127.0.0.1 secure.codeandweb.com | |
Now save and close it. Reboot your computer for it to apply the DNS changes that we've just done. | |
If you've already used your trial, open up REGEDIT (Windows+R, type regedit, Enter) | |
Delete this entire key: | |
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\code-and-web.de\BabelEdit\licensing | |
Now open up BabelEdit, click "Try BabelEdit". It will try to activate over the internet and fail (because it's being redirected to your own machine now). | |
Two boxes will appear. On the second one, paste following: | |
PHBsaXN0PjxkaWN0PjxrZXk+cHJvZHVjdDwva2V5PjxzdHJpbmc+QmFiZWxFZGl0PC9zdHJpbmc+PGtleT5saWNlbnNlVHlwZTwva2V5PjxzdHJpbmc+PC9zdHJpbmc+PC9kaWN0PjwvcGxpc3Q+ | |
And press "Activate". BabelEdit will open. | |
---- | |
It's a annoying workaround because to use BabelEdit you'll need to enter this key above *every time*. But if you don't have money, the trouble's worth it. |
It works on Ubuntu! Just change the path: ~/.config/code-and-web.de# rm BabelEdit.conf
Thanks!!!!! :)

With translation?
Thanks! It works!
cool
Thank you!
I've made an improvement to the pasted text here.
Now you only have to paste it once.
any way to remove the 10,000 character limit?
Thank you!

I don't think you can.
What you can do, instead, is delete the registry and activate it again once you reach the limit.
Waiting to remove character limit :(
you'll probably have to re-do the license entry (or even request a new trial)
I have the pro version with this string ;)

Just to remind all of you: This doesn't activate BabelEdit, as this wouldn't even be legal to post here.
Basically, you're using a "longer" trial. If the option wasn't available in the trial, it also isnt't in the "longer" trial.
v3.0.0 on Windows, try to modify key in Registry Editor:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\code-and-web.de\BabelEdit\licensing\data\expiryDate

BabelEdit

Ouh, I don't quite remember. The last version I used was the one in which I did this workaround. You can get the BabelEdit version by looking at this Gist upload date. With the upload date you can maybe look it up on archive.org, their Changelog or similar.
EDIT: Looking at their changelog and at my upload date, the likely version that I used was BabelEdit 2.1.0
seems there is problems with saving in new versions
This crack only works for versions 2.*.*
After trying to make it work with v4, didn't succeeded. Looks like they have a better protection with liscence key signature

Somewhat disappointed, my project was originally using the v4 version of babelEdit, I don't want to go back to the old version, are there any other good workarounds
Do not waste time, use visual code JSON auto translate plugin
I got a new solution if you are linux user but babel is change is dir after some research with find command i found this :
- /home/abou/.var/app/com.codeandweb.babeledit
- /home/abou/.cache/gnome-software/odrs/com.codeandweb.babeledit.json
- cd /home/abou/.var/app/com.codeandweb.babeledit/config/code-and-web.de && rm BabelEdit.conf
- Now youn can just a crontab to your to do this !
Thanks !
LINUX "INFINITE" TRIAL (2023-11-14)
Open:
FLATPAK:
~/.var/app/com.codeandweb.babeledit/config/code-and-web.de/BabelEdit.conf
DEB:
~/.config/code-and-web.de/BabelEdit.conf
Change expire date:
data\expiryDate=2999-01-01
in Mac:
1 - Go to "etc/hosts" file, then add ( 127.0.0.1 secure.codeandweb.com )
2- Open folder => ~/Library/Preferences
3 - Open file => de.code-and-web.BabelEdit.plist
4 - Change ( licensing.trialExpired => NO ) ( licensing.data.expiryDate => 2050-01-01 ) , then Save file
5 - Reopen BabelEdit

For me, these values are all encoded, like licensing.data.rawdata^recentFileList_^P^_licensing.data.freeUpdatesUntil_^P^_NSMenuShouldUpdateSettingsTitle_^P^OignoredWarnings^showInfoOnSave_^P^Wlicensing.data.licenseeZfirstStart_^P"sourceCodeReferencesVisibleVisible_^P^UsimilarPhrasesVisible_^P^Vlicensing.data.product
And what about simply buying a license? After all it's a perpetual license - no subscription.
We are 2 developers and for us it's a struggle to make a living from our software.
If you really can't afford BabelEdit, contact me (support at codeandweb.com) we can surely find a better than just stealing the software from us.
@CodeAndWeb Thanks for chiming in! Hopefully more people see your comment.
Also, if you want me to take this gist down, just say so! (It doesn't work anymore, but that shouldn't really matter)
For others, as I said in the original post: If you like the software, buy it, the devs deserve it.
Here's a website for encoding and decoding the base64 string: https://www.base64encode.org/
works great!
