WinRAR version: 6.0.2

The above registration information is all correct. My WinRAR 6.0.2 version registered and tested successfully.

You need to save the above registration information in text format as rarreg.key, and drag it to the winrar window. πŸ˜€

Thx.
It didn't work and I didn't know why.
Then it works and I don't know why.

Oh, I found the key file generated by powershell with command is writen in UTF-16 LE and the one I created myself is in UTF-8. I think it is the cause.

Yes, this may be a reason.
There is another reason for generating invalid keys. πŸ™„

If text1 and text2 contain non-English characters, although a key can be generated, the key is invalid.

winrar-keygen.exe <text1> <text2>

Thanks for the feedback, the README will be updated later. 😁

@bitcookies The text encoding of the file should be ANSI, a.k.a Windows-1252 encoding, not UTF-8.
If I create a file containing printable characters above the common ASCII range, 0x80 to 0xFF in ANSI encoding, the file is still valid.

@Sonic-The-Hedgehog-LNK1123 Indeed. Username and License type are ANSI-encoded string, without null-terminator.

The readme will be modified later. Thanks and have a great weekend! πŸ˜†
