Main Features of Refox Xi
Refox Xi has several features that make it a powerful and versatile tool for Visual FoxPro developers. Some of the main features are:
Decompiler: Refox Xi can decompile any Visual FoxPro executable file (.exe, .app, .dll) and recover the original source code (.prg, .scx, .vcx, etc.). The decompiled code is fully editable and can be recompiled with Visual FoxPro. Refox Xi can also decompile encrypted or compressed files, as well as files that have been modified by other tools.
Brander: Refox Xi can brand any Visual FoxPro executable file with a custom logo, icon, splash screen, version information, and other properties. The branded file can be distributed as a standalone application or as a runtime library. Refox Xi can also compress the branded file to reduce its size and improve its performance.
Protection: Refox Xi can protect any Visual FoxPro executable file from being decompiled or modified by unauthorized users. Refox Xi offers three levels of protection: Level I (basic), Level II (advanced), and Level III (ultimate). Each level has different options and features that can prevent or deter reverse engineering, debugging, tracing, patching, cracking, or tampering with the file.
How to Install and Activate Refox Xi
To install and activate Refox Xi, you need to follow these steps:
Download the Refox XI files from the official website. You need to download two zip archives: ReFox_INST.zip and ReFox_HELP.zip. Do not unpack them directly from the browser. Save them to your local disk and unblock them by right-clicking on them and selecting "Properties" -> "Unblock".
Create a new folder for Refox Xi (e.g. "C:\ReFox XI") and unpack both zip archives into it.
Run ReFox.setup.exe to install Refox Xi. If you encounter any problems during the installation, you can check the FIX folder for some possible solutions.
Fill out your details in the form that appears after the installation. You need to enter your serial number, which you can obtain from the website or from the email that you received after purchasing Refox Xi. Do not change the activation key field. You can modify the user name and company fields if necessary.
After clicking "OK", Refox Xi will prepare data for generating the full activation key. You will see two files in your Refox folder: ReFox. (a text file) and ReFox.zip (a compressed file).
Send the data for generating the activation key to info@refox.net. You can either copy the text of ReFox. to the email body and attach ReFox.zip, or use the "Send data" button in Refox Xi to send them automatically.
Wait for receiving the activation key back via email. This can take several hours depending on the daytime. Once you receive it, copy it to your Refox folder and run ReFox.setup.exe again. Your Refox Xi will be activated and ready to use.
