keyforge95

This library is a cross-plattform generator and validator for Windows 95 keys written in Rust. As it turned out, however, it supposedly works for all Microsoft products that require a 10-digit product key in the following format: XXX-XXXXXXX

It is only sporadically developed as it is solely a learning project for me and does not have particularly significant practical use.

⚠️ Note: keyforge95 and I are in no way associated with Microsoft or their products. Only publicly available information from the internet has been used to create this project. It neither bypasses effective copy measures nor constitutes a "crack." The purpose of this repository, from my perspective, is solely to gain experience in programming and enhance my skills and knowledge.

Usage

This library only has two public functions: generate_product_key() and validate_product_key()

Generate

After adding keyforge95 to your project, just use generate_product_key() to generate a valid product key as a String.

use keyforge95::generate_product_key;
let product_key: String = generate_product_key();
println("Generated product key: {}", product_key);

Validate

To check the validity of a key, add keyforge95 to your project and use validate_product_key("key"). This function returns a bool. It is important that the right formatting (XXX-XXXXXXX) is used for the product key. Otherwise the validation will fail.

use keyforge95::validate_product_key;
let product_key: &str = 000-0000000
match validate_product_key(product_key) {
    true => println!("Valid key: {}", product_key),
    false => println!("Invalid key: {}", product_key)
}
