@aamaanaa can you share it via email ?

you do not have a public mail or any contact info, or even just a profile picture, 6 old repos, and no starred repos

are you a jetbrains inc. empoyee?

READ FIRST! i released a trail reset for jetbrains on linux, and shared on serveral gist, but i got a DMCA warning from JETBRAINS THEM SELF!!!!

But well it indicates it works and is indicated a threat by jetbrains themself lol

i have a trial reset tool for linux that can reset the trial while keeping all extension settings and so on. i could share, but not here. Since i already got one DMCA.

Also notice that anything hosted and shared on git hub is instantly taken down. So do not bother.

i can send a proof video that this tool i made works. otherwise they would ofc not DMCA me ;)

why i share it? because i do not find it ilegal to modify some of the users files and some other stuff to reset shitty trial software, and most certainly not becuase x company should decide what kind of instructions my cpu execute for a device i have worked and payed for.

EDIT

al know documented methods or nuking files and folders IS NOT NEEDED AND DELETES YOUR SETTINGS LICENSES FOR EXTENSIONS AND SO ON

@aamaanaa please send your tool to my email.
actually I still have the Intelij plugin from @SamHoque installed on my old vm, but I lost the original zip file.
I tried to copy the whole folder from the Intelij plugin to new installation, but failed to install on the new machine

Maybe this would help.
I have the old tool and analyzed it with copilot.

This is wat you certainly never shoud do if you want to keep your trial licence:

OS	Target	Action	Notes
Windows	HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\JavaSoft	Deletes the registry key	Uses reg delete ... /f
Windows	%APPDATA%\JetBrains\PermanentUserId	Deletes the file	Uses del /F /Q
macOS	~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.java.util.prefs.plist	Removes the plist entry from the cleanup list, then deletes matching files	Part of a loop over preference files
macOS	~/Library/Preferences/com.jetbrains.*.plist	Deletes matching plist files	Wildcard-based removal
macOS	~/Library/Preferences/jetbrains.*.plist	Deletes matching plist files	Wildcard-based removal
macOS	~/Library/Preferences/$product_name/eval	Deletes the eval folder	Product-specific
macOS	~/Library/Application Support/JetBrains/$product_name/eval	Deletes the eval folder	"Latest version" path
macOS	~/Library/Preferences/$product_name/options/other.xml	Removes lines containing evlsprt	Uses sed -i ''
macOS	~/Library/Application Support/JetBrains/$product_name/options/other.xml	Removes lines containing evlsprt	"Latest version" path
Linux	~/.config/JetBrains/$product_name/eval	Deletes the eval folder	Product-specific
Linux	~/.config/JetBrains/$product_name/options/other.xml	Removes evlsprt text	Uses sed -i 's/evlsprt//'
Linux	~/.java/.userPrefs	Deletes Java user preferences	Uses recursive delete

Maybe this would help. I have the old tool and analyzed it with copilot.

This is wat you certainly never shoud do if you want to keep your trial licence:
OS Target Action Notes
Windows HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\JavaSoft Deletes the registry key Uses reg delete ... /f
Windows %APPDATA%\JetBrains\PermanentUserId Deletes the file Uses del /F /Q
macOS ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.java.util.prefs.plist Removes the plist entry from the cleanup list, then deletes matching files Part of a loop over preference files

macOS ~/Library/Application Support/JetBrains/$product_name/options/other.xml Removes lines containing evlsprt "Latest version" path
Linux ~/.config/JetBrains/$product_name/eval Deletes the eval folder Product-specific
Linux ~/.config/JetBrains/$product_name/options/other.xml Removes evlsprt text Uses sed -i 's/evlsprt//'
Linux ~/.java/.userPrefs Deletes Java user preferences Uses recursive delete

for linux, this deletes licenses and settings. not needed.
