can someone please help!

how to replace? Sorry for d*mb question, but I dont see this function

sudo cp /opt/sublime_text/sublime_text /opt/sublime_text/sublime_text.bak
sudo sed -i 's/\x0F\xB6\x51\x05\x83\xF2\x01/\xC6\x41\x05\x01\xB2\x00\x90/' /opt/sublime_text/sublime_text

Thanks bro!

Great share but the native web hex editor didn't work as it used to. I couldn't insert the new value, then i proceeded to
install a different hexeditor and then only it replaced the entire string or value and boom full version.
Cheers

voilà

i already patched 4200 with the method mentioned somewhere. But do u think Sublime Txt 4205 has some kind of methods to activate it.

For Linux and Windows, I posted a patch for version 4205 in the comment above. If you have macOS, I can make a similar patch, but I have no way to test it.

Hey there, ur method worked by the second method. But now it says, Upgrade License Required.

Did u also had similar output. Is it normal. Do i need to provide a license, or will it work just as it is.
I m confused. Can u suggest something. 😐😐😐
It amazing how u guys do these kind of things. But still, u r the hero.
Should i leave it like that.

Sublime Text licenses include 3 years of free updates. If you are using build 4205 and seeing a "License Upgrade Required" prompt, your original purchase is more than 3 years old. You can either purchase a license upgrade, or continue using your last eligible version for free (since Sublime licenses do not expire).

Hey there, ur method worked by the second method. But now it says, Upgrade License Required.

I'm assuming that by “second method” you mean the patch for the Windows version?

I checked it on Linux and Windows, and you shouldn't see the “License Upgrade Required” message. If a pop-up window asking you to update your license (or sth like that) doesn't appear while you're using the program, it's likely just a cosmetic issue.

However, if you want to remove this information, make sure you've changed the second sequence correctly.
For Windows, it will be this one:

0x000AABD7: 0x48 -> 0xEB
0x000AABD8: 0x83 -> 0x28

Find:    45 89 27 48 83 BC 24 A8
Diff:    -- -- -- EB 28 -- -- --
Replace: 45 89 27 EB 28 BC 24 A8

And since you launched the program using the provided license and it wasn't later removed as invalid by the online verification, the other two sequences have been changed correctly.

Thank u for ur codes, but now it says please enter ur serial now. Although i am using Eazy fix, some of the snapshots are showing similar results. Why does the codes behaves despite putting it. Anyways i cannot test it now. I'll quote u if ur methods works.
Also i don't see me using Sublime Text just for editing text. Its better for coders, i think. I think i'll to be content with notepad++.
Will holler u soon. Good night.

Oi amigo.
Desative o Rational e clique em pesquisar. Você encontrará 0F B6 51 05 83 F2 01 e, em seguida, substitua por C6 41 05 01 B2 00 90.

Funcionou... obrigado, amigo!

funcionou perfeitamente
