⚠️ Important Warning About GenP (Click to expand/collapse)

πŸ€” What is GenP?

GenP, short for "Generic Patcher," is a tool designed to extend the trial periods of Adobe Creative Cloud software on Windows systems. It modifies certain system files to reset the trial timer, effectively allowing users to use Adobe applications like Photoshop and Premiere Pro without a valid subscription.

🚫 Risks of Using GenP

βš–οΈ Legal Risks

  • Using tools like GenP to bypass copyright protections constitutes software piracy, which is illegal in most countries, including Vietnam.

☣️ Security Risks

  • Cracking tools often come with malware, viruses, or ransomware. They may require administrative privileges and disabling antivirus software, creating significant security vulnerabilities.

πŸ“œ Disclaimer

This guide does not endorse or encourage the use of tools like GenP. It is provided solely for educational purposes to raise awareness about the associated risks.

πŸ“ Note about the Source Code folder

The Source Code folder may not be updated to the latest version. Please follow the instructions in the Installation Requirements section to download the latest version from GitHub.

πŸ› οΈ Step-by-Step Guide (Click to expand/collapse)

Phase 1: 🧹 Preparation and Thorough Uninstallation

The goal of this phase is to ensure your computer is completely "clean" of any old Adobe versions to avoid conflicts during installation.

1. Uninstall All Adobe Applications

Before proceeding, make sure to uninstall all existing Adobe applications (such as Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere, and especially Adobe Creative Cloud) from your computer.

  • Use your preferred uninstallation method (e.g., via Windows "Apps & features" or specialized uninstallation tools) to ensure all leftover files and registry keys are thoroughly removed.

2. Download Required Tools

Download the necessary files mentioned in the Installation Requirements section.

Phase 2: ☁️ Installing Creative Cloud (CC)

Now you will install Adobe's main management tool.

  1. Run the Creative Cloud installer.
  2. Click Continue and log in using your account (Gmail/Adobe).
  3. Important Note: During the installation process, if a popup window appears, make sure to uncheck the box for Adobe Genuine Service (AGS) before proceeding.
  4. Wait for Creative Cloud to finish installing.

Phase 3: βš™οΈ Configuration and Activation Preparation

Before activation, you need to configure Creative Cloud (CC) and disable your antivirus software.

1. Configure Creative Cloud

  1. Open the Creative Cloud application you just installed.
  2. Click on the menu (three-dot icon) -> File -> Reference.
  3. Turn off all three settings:
    • ❌ Launch Creative Cloud at login
    • ❌ Run Creative Cloud in the background after closing
    • ❌ Automatically keep Creative Cloud up to date
  4. Click Done.
  5. Go back to File -> Quit to ensure the application is completely closed.

2. ⚠️ Disable Antivirus (Important)

  1. Open Windows Security.
  2. Navigate to Virus & threat protection -> Manage settings.
  3. Temporarily turn Off the Real-time protection option.
    • This step ensures that the GB tool is not blocked during the process.

Phase 4: πŸ”‘ Activation (Using Adobe GB)

This is the software "cracking" step.

  1. Install and run Adobe GB:

    • Download the Adobe GB tool from the official source.
    • Extract the downloaded file to a folder on your computer.
    • Locate and run the run_build.bat file by double-clicking it.
    • The process will automatically create a Release folder containing the main executable file for Adobe GB.
    • Right-click on the Adobe GB executable file and select Run as administrator to launch the tool.
  2. Activate Creative Cloud:

    • In the GB tool, click the Search button.
    • Once the scan is complete, click the P (Patch) button to bypass the payment requirement.
  3. Install Applications:

    • Open Creative Cloud.
    • Navigate to the App section and select the application you want to install (e.g., Photoshop), then click Install.
    • Wait for the application to finish installing.
  4. Activate Applications (Second Time):

    • After the application (e.g., Photoshop) is installed, close Creative Cloud.
    • Reopen the Adobe GB tool (Run as administrator).
    • Click Search again to detect the newly installed application.
    • Click the P (Patch) button to activate the specific application.

Phase 5: πŸ›‘οΈ Blocking Internet Connection

The final step is to prevent the application from connecting to Adobe's servers.

  1. Use Adobe GB's Popup Tool:

    • Open the Adobe GB tool and switch to the Popup tool tab.
    • Locate the second option (referred to as File one in the video, possibly Firewall).
  2. Add Firewall Rules:

    • Click the Add rule button.
    • Select Select all and then click OK.
  3. Complete the Process:

    • You can now re-enable your antivirus software (Real-time protection) that was disabled in Phase 3.
