3rd Party Option:-
If you are open to 3rd party options, you can check out Crypto Licensing for .NET
Building your own:-
The MSDN - VB Developers Center also has a Shareware Application Starter Kit
You can download this and check this out. This should give you some starting points as well as to how to go about it.
There is also an old channel 9 video of how to use it
Caveat : This seems to be a bit old but it should give you pointers to get you started atleast.

Is Office.InterOp still working after migration to O365

I need your help on a generic question. I am using Visual Studio 2012 to develop my Windows Forms Application that is running only on my machine locally to support my work. I have Windows10 and Office2016 installed. My Application interacts with MS Access (via System.Data.OleDb) and Outlook+Excel via Office.InterOp. Fine.
Today I received the information that our Company is rolling out Office365 and I started researching how this could impact my development work. I am not a programmer (more business) but always try to teach myself. But in this case I have no clew what all that means. I read about registering my Application before I connect to Outlook, Outlook REST API and many other things.
So my questions are:
Will my Application work the same way after migrating to Office365 (InterOps) ?
Is there a good tutorial out there that helps me getting started?
I really appreciate any help and guidance on this. Have a great weekend. Thanks
First what is yoy current version of Office you use ? Then do you know if your compagnie will move to office pro plus ? (I suppose yes)
Even if you pass to Office ProPlus the interop will still work, you should after starting to move you app using Graph API, but this API is to interact with the Office 365 data, not the Office App, it's in this case you register your app o the Azure Active Directory to have the right to use Office data

Can't find Microsoft Internet Transfer Control in Visual Studio 2013

New project in Visual Basic using Visual Studio 2013.
Want to add the "Microsoft Internet Controls" component but I can't find it.
What am I missing?
This is the second link on Google:
http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/office_2010-customize/cant-find-reference-to-microsoft-internet-controls/e138ff0c-8046-47b1-9c0c-ac28cebe3c7a
Apparently it may have been renamed "Microsoft Browser Helpers" and you may need to add a reference to "ieframe.dll".
If you need FTP, it is fully supported in the .NET framework. You could start with the examples on MSDN: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms229718%28v=vs.110%29.aspx
The inet1 Internet Transfer Control is installed with MS Office. Install it and you should have no problem having it become available to use in Visual Studio etc.
It's old but still completely useful in apps. It did all the FTP and HTTP calls for a web crawler I wrote years ago and was fast and completely error-free when crawling 100s of 1000s of web pages at a time while I slept. I'd use inet1 today if I was writing an app that did huge amounts of internet calls as quickly as possible.

Creating plugin for Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2013

I am very new to Microsoft CRM , (working first time) and have requirement to call one custom webservice whenever new Account is created in Microsoft Dynamic CRM 2013.
Response returned from webservice needs to be stored as csv file in Files section of new account. Can anyone provide basic guideline how we can achieve this?
Here is a good link for getting started with writing a plug-in: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg328263.aspx (The link points to CRM 2011, but this is compatible with 2013 and is a good place to get started.)
You'll also want to download the SDK. Provided with the SDK are tools for deploying the plugin, examples of plugins and much, much more. http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=40321
The CSV file will also be stored as an annotation. Here's an example: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg328429.aspx
Really, I'd start with the SDK and then look to the specific links.

Trying to load opserver

I downloaded opserver that I saw at SQLPass. I can't seem to do anything with it. I tried opening it with VS 2008, VS 2010 and keep getting incompatible errors. What version of VS should I be using? I am a newbie so am in real unfamiliar territory. What do I do after I download it? Are there step by step instructions anywhere?
Opserver targets ASP.NET 4.5 for concurrency features, which I believe requires 2012 or better.
The official Opserver documentation assumes that you know how to build and publish and ASP.NET MVC 4 application. Typically the challenge in building MVC is getting the right dependencies/config setup on IIS the first time. Very easy to update after that. There are many blog posts and good answers on this site on that general subject.
If you want directions specific to Opserver, currently you are limited to third party blog posts such as the following:
Patrick Hyatt: Setting Up StackExchange's Opserver (very useful for the config files)
Danny Sorensen: Using Opserver Will It Build? (my own experience so far)
If this is not familiar territory, I recommend the following:
Use Visual Studio 2012 or 2013 on a machine with ASP.NET 4.5
Only enable the Opserver security file. Modify it for your IP address, or use "alladmin" to start.
Build it. If it doesn't work, use StackOverflow to solve your issue. You're having trouble with ASP.NET MVC 4, not Opserver at this point.
Now enable one additional config file at a time and build it again until you are done. Note, that you will not need to enable all of the config files unless your setup matches that of StackOverflow. Most of the config files are intended to be optional and left disabled.
You should be good with 2010, but you need to have ASP.NET MVC installed before opening the solution and building.

Check that the workflow is published.
This link may also be of help. There is a slight chance your problem might have to do with localization issues.
