Description

RunAsDate is a small utility that allows you to run a program in the date and time that you specify.
This utility doesn’t change the current system date and time of your computer, but it only injects the
date/time that you specify into the desired application.

You can run multiple applications simultaneously, each application works with different date and time,
while the real date/time of your system continues to run normally.

How does it work ?

RunAsDate intercepts the kernel API calls that returns the current date and time (GetSystemTime, GetLocalTime, GetSystemTimeAsFileTime, NtQuerySystemTime, GetSystemTimePreciseAsFileTime),
and replaces the current date/time with the date/time that you specify.

System Requirements

RunAsDate works under Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2008, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows 10.
Older versions of Windows are not supported. There is also x64 version available in a separated download, for using with x64 applications.

Important Notice !!

I get many email messages that say something like «I tried to extend the trial period of xyz software with RunAsDate and it didn’t work».
Running a software with different date/time can be used for many legitimate purposes and for these purposes RunAsDate was created.
I have never said implicitly or explicitly that RunAsDate can be used for extending the trial period of a software.
For some shareware programs, RunAsDate might really work, but many shareware creators are smart enough to detect that the date/time was modified and
when they detect the time change, they end the trial period immediately.


Please don’t bother yourself to send me a question about extending the trial period of a software,
because these kind of messages are simply deleted without answering.

Versions History

• Version 1.41:
  • You can now attach to a process from command-line. You can specify the process filename or process ID, for example:
    
    RunAsDate.exe 2542005 17:12:15 Attach:Outlook.exe
    
    RunAsDate.exe 2542005 17:12:15 Attach:2756
• Version 1.40:
  • Added ‘Attach To Process’ option. Before using this feature, read this.
• Version 1.37:
  • Fixed bug: RunAsDate failed to work properly when using the 32-bit and the 64-bit versions in the same time.
  • Also, the DLL file of RunAsDate is now deleted automatically when you close the main window of RunAsDate (If it’s not locked).

Using RunAsDate

RunAsDate doesn’t require any installation process or additional DLL files.
In order to start using it, simply copy the executable file (RunAsDate.exe) to any folder you like, and run it.

In the main window of RunAsDate, select the desired date and time and the application that you want to run.
Optionally, you can also specify the command-line parameters to run the program.
Press the «Run» button to start the application with the specified date/time.

Immediate Mode

In versions prior to 1.03, RunAsDate always waited until the kernel was fully loaded, and only then
injected the desired date/time.
This mean that some programs that get the date/time im very early stage, received the real current date/time,
instead of the fake date/time of RunAsDate.
Starting from version 1.03, when the ‘Immediate Mode’ is turned on, RunAsDate inject the date/time
immediately when the process starts, without waiting to the kernel loading.
However, this mode can also cause troubles to some applications, especially if they were written in .NET

If executing an application from RunAsDate cause it to crash, you should turn off the ‘Immediate Mode’.

Attach To Process

Starting from version 1.40, RunAsDate allows you to attach a running process, instead of creating a new one.
After the dll of RunAsDate is attached to the process, the process will see the current date/time according to the settings you selected in the main window of RunAsDate.

In order to use this feature, select the desired date/time settings, click the ‘Attach To Process’ , select the desired process, and then click the ‘Attach To Selected Process’ button.

Before start using this feature, be aware:

• Currently, there is no option to detach from process.
• If you attach to a process more than once, the newer time settings will override the previous time settings.
  It’s important to say that this tool is not designed for attaching a process multiple times. It’s just a side effect that may be useful for some people.
• When using the ‘Attach To Process’ feature, there is higher risk that the application will crash.
• It’s highly recommended to avoid from attaching a system process or critical process.
• In order to attach a 64-bit process, you have to use the 64-bit version of RunAsDate.
• In order to attach an elevated process, you have to run the RunAsDate tool as Administrator.

Using RunAsDate from Command-Line

You can also use RunAsDate from command-line, with the following syntax:

RunAsDate.exe {/immediate} {/movetime} {/startin [folder]} {/returntime [seconds] } [ddmmyyyy] {hh:mm:ss} [Program to run] {Program parameters}

Examples:

RunAsDate.exe 22102002 12:35:22 «C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOFFICE11OUTLOOK.EXE»

RunAsDate.exe 1422005 «c:tempmyprogram.exe» param1 param2

RunAsDate.exe /movetime 1182004 16:21:42 «C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOFFICE11OUTLOOK.EXE»

RunAsDate.exe /movetime /returntime 15 10122001 11:41:26 «c:tempmyprogram.exe»

RunAsDate.exe Hours:-10 «C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOFFICE11OUTLOOK.EXE»

RunAsDate.exe 2232008 10:10:25 Attach:Outlook.exe

RunAsDate.exe 2082003 20:20:45 Attach:2744

RunAsDate Limitations

• RunAsDate will not affect applications that take the current date/time from another source.
  For example: application that loads the current date from remote server.
• RunAsDate may cause some applications to crash.

Translating RunAsDate To Another Language

RunAsDate allows you to easily translate all dialog-boxes and other strings
to other languages.

In order to do that, follow the instructions below:

1. Run RunAsDate with /savelangfile parameter:
   
   RunAsDate.exe /savelangfile
   
   A file named RunAsDate_lng.ini will be created in the folder of RunAsDate utility.
2. Open the created language file in Notepad or in any other text editor.
3. Translate the dialog-boxes and string entries to the desired language.
4. After you finish the translation, Run RunAsDate, and all translated
   strings will be loaded from the language file.
   
   If you want to run RunAsDate without the translation, simply rename the language file, or move
   it to another folder.

Тестировал пока на 2-х приложениях Trojan Remover, NIS 2012(не изменяет время) и Screenshot Reader (программа отказывается запускаться ввиду изменённого времени), поэтому, пока для меня, бесполезная.
З.Ы. А вот, что пишет автор программы: Системные требования
===================

RunAsDate работает под Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Server 2003,
Windows Server 2008, Windows Vista, Windows 7 и Windows 8. старший
версий Windows, не поддерживаются.Также доступны версии x64
в отдельной загрузки, для использования с x64 приложениями.

Важное замечание!
Я получаю много сообщений электронной почты, которые говорят что-то вроде «я попытался продлить
испытательный срок программного обеспечения XYZ с RunAsDate и он не работает «. Запуск
программное обеспечение с различными дате / времени могут быть использованы для многих законных
целей и для этих целей RunAsDate был создан. Я никогда не говорил,
явно или неявно, что RunAsDate может быть использован для расширения
испытательный срок программного обеспечения. Для некоторых условно-бесплатных программ, может RunAsDate
действительно работают, но многие создатели условно достаточно умны, чтобы определить, что
даты / времени был изменен, и когда они обнаруживают изменение времени, они в конечном
испытательный срок немедленно.
Пожалуйста, не утруждать себя, чтобы послать мне вопрос о продлении
испытательный срок программного обеспечения, потому что такого рода сообщения просто
удалены без ответа.

RunAsDate — это маленькая утилита, позволяющая вам устанавливать дату и время для программы. RunAsDate не меняет текущей даты и времени на вашем ПК, она всего лишь устанавливает желаемую дату и время для программы. Вы можете запускать множество приложений одновременно, и каждое приложение будет работать с разными датами и временем, в то время как дата и время вашей системы остаются без изменений.

Как это работает?

RunAsDate перехватывает сигналы ядра API, которые возвращают текущую дату и время ((GetSystemTime, GetLocalTime, GetSystemTimeAsFileTime) и заменяет текущую дату/время на указанные вами.

Использование RunAsDate

RunAsDate не требует инсталляции или дополнительных файлов DLL. Для того, чтобы использовать программу, просто скопируйте исполнительный файл (RunAsDate.exe) в любую папку и запустите его.

В главном окне RunAsDate выберите желаемую дату и время и приложение, которое вы хотите запустить. По желанию можете также указать параметры командной строки для запуска программы. Нажмите кнопку «Run» для запуска приложения согласно указанной дате/времени.

Использование RunAsDate с помощью командной строки

Также вы можете использовать RunAsDate из командной строки со следующим синтаксисом:
RunAsDate.exe [ddmmyyyy] {hh:mm:ss} [Запускаемая программа] {Параметры программы}

Примеры:

• RunAsDate.exe 22102002 12:35:22 «C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOFFICE11OUTLOOK.EXE»
• RunAsDate.exe 1422005 «c:tempmyprogram.exe» param1 param2
