How to Run:

1. Save the code in a Python script (e.g., patcher.py).

2. Open the terminal/command prompt and run the script like so:

   python patcher.py "path_to_sublime_text.exe"

   Replace "path_to_sublime_text.exe" with the actual path to the sublime_text.exe file.

3. The patched version will be saved in the same directory as the original file (or you can specify a custom output path).

Note:

Please be aware that even after applying the patch, the status may still display as (UNREGISTERED). This is normal, and you can safely disregard this message because the app is already activited.

What it does:

Opens an input executable in binary mode
Copies its bytes into a mutable bytearray
Changes specific bytes at hard-coded file offsets
Saves the result as a new patched executable

Key parts:

NOP = 0x90
0x90 is the x86 NOP instruction, which means “do nothing”.
offsets_and_values = {...}
This maps exact file offsets to new byte values.
Example:
0x00030170: 0x00 means write byte 00 at offset 0x30170
0x000A94D0 through 0x000A950F are all replaced with 0x90, effectively NOP-ing out a block of machine instructions
A few other offsets are changed to 0x02 or 0x00
