- Open
regedit (Registry Editor).
- Navigate to:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Sony\Sound Forge\9.0

- This does not generate a new code – but if you backed up your registry from the old PC, you can export this key and import it on the new PC. This bypasses the need for online authentication entirely.
