Loquendo TTS7 Cracking

Good evening!

I am currently facing a problem with Loquendo which I am not sure how to address, since it is very pesky to find.

I am using this setup (https://send.cm/d/5TuI) which includes Engine, SDK, Activator and 1 Voice. I have other TTS7 voices but any voice will do.

I used this activator before and it always worked. It worked too here on this computer.
It's a while since Loquendo has completely stopped working, and when I press "Speak" on the TTS app, the app just quits.
So far, I found that removing the "LicenseCode" key in the registry (so, removing the registration data) "solves" the problem, since the TTS App stays open and obbiously complains that no license has been found.

What I believe, since I have VMware installed, is that the multiple virtual cards created by it are messing with the ability of Loquendo to find the correct network card (licenses are bound to MAC address like it happens in the activator).

I have also some TTS6 voices installed (https://send.cm/d/5Tuk). Loquendo V6 has a crack (included) which used to work as well, but, guess what? Doesn't work either. So I suspect that since they worked for ages, there must be something in the system that is preventing Loquendo from operating properly, but have really no clue on what to do.

Can someone help me on where to start looking to solve this matter? It is really odd since it's not that the activator does not work, but there is something that is messing with both Loquendo AND the activator and result in premature application shutdown.

Thanks in advance!

ermh...we are on a RE forum...so I would be expecting some technical answer...I know by myself that there are other types of voices.

By the way...I'm digging further and the Activator does indeed works. The problem, as I suspected before, arises when it is trying to get the MAC addresses of all of the Network Adapters. I'm still trying to figure out what happens, but the program does not quit naturally, it generates a Buffer Overflow which causes the UnhandledExceptionFilter to intervene, the Application gets notified about it and quits because of the error.

So there is nothing wrong with the Activator, but another problem that needs handling.

1st try to make disable wireless and Bluetooth

in cmd use ipconfig /all to see MACs.

Also if activator is still not good in win 10 x64,
try to use it in compatibility mode with tick of old windows

if not search and edit Environment variables
TEMP %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Temp into c:\windows\temp
TMP %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Temp into c:\windows\temp
Run cmd
Proprieties
Tick Use legacy console (requiere relunch after ....)

in registers key Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\AppCompat put REG_DWORD value for VDMDisallowed as 0
in Turn Windows features on or off\Legacy Components tick NTVDM if you have it

I have been able to partially solve the problem.

For Loquendo TTS7 I had to remove from Windows features Hyper-V and all services related to it. This caused all the virtual devices to be uninstalled and Loquendo begun to work again.

For Loquendo TTS6, the problem is that the app is working if executed as Admin.

BTW cepstral voices are only apparently free, you can download and install it freely but once you try a TTS the only thing it says is that it's a demo and need activation. Never investigated more..

DebugString: "* LICENSING: Duration of this utterance: 0 msec"
DebugString: "(pid:05004) #001 -"
DebugString: "* LICENSING: Channel ready!"
Anyway it has to be repatched to work properly

UnclaimLicense comes when u selecting Roberto
