Change byte at address 0x5A421 from 0x06 to 0x17 ldloc.0(0x06) -> ldc.i4.1(0x17)

How i found this byte:

  1. Opened SSMSBoost.dll in dnSpy
  2. Found usage of Enum ActivationMode
  3. Found method public bool IsAuthorized(Feature feature)
  4. Opened IL code of method
  5. Changed byte at address 0x5A421 from 0x06 to 0x17 using ImHex
    Now method always returns true

ldloc.0 - Load local var with index 0 to stack
ldc.i4.1 - Load 1 to stack

P.S. Tested only on SSMS 2018
