On your server (or within an admin tool), encrypt the machine ID along with expiration date and features. Use System.NetEncoding and a strong cipher (e.g., Delphi's TCipher_AES from System.Encryption ).

Here’s a simplified example using Base64 encoding (not secure alone – always use encryption in real apps): file activation delphi 2016

function ValidateActivationFile(const FileName: string): Boolean; var Lines: TStringList; Decoded, MachineIDPart, HashPart, CalculatedHash: string; Parts: TArray<string>; begin Result := False; if not FileExists(FileName) then Exit; Lines := TStringList.Create; try Lines.LoadFromFile(FileName); if Lines.Count = 0 then Exit; Decoded := TNetEncoding.Base64.Decode(Lines[0]); Parts := Decoded.Split(['|']); if Length(Parts) < 3 then Exit; uses Winapi

if CalculatedHash <> HashPart then Exit; Here’s a simplified example using Base64 encoding (not

// Rebuild the original data without the hash SetLength(Parts, Length(Parts) - 1); CalculatedHash := THashSHA2.GetHashString(string.Join('|', Parts), SHA256);
