Hello Sandeep,

You can use the registry to store the time of installation

1. Your installer should make a registry entry when it is installed. This
entry should be encrypted so that external modifications are not permitted
easily.
2. Your application should query this registry key on start-up, And use the
DateTimeclass to see the time difference between the installation time and
the current time. If it is beyond the trial time, the application should
refuse to start-up or better still, prompt for a license key.

To implement a license key, please visit
