Vb6 Get Serial Number
This release was created for you, eager to use Microsoft Visual Basic 6.0 full and with without limitations. Our intentions are not to harm Microsoft software company but to give the possibility to those who can not pay for any piece of software out there. This should be your intention too, as a user, to fully evaluate Microsoft Visual Basic 6.0 without restrictions and then decide.
I am writing an application in Visual Basic that pulls basic information about the computer and outputs the data onto a form. Currently, I am trying to pull the serial number for the machine I would be using. For example, pulling a serial number of. WMI is very powerful and can be used to get all available info about the computer. Check here if you want to know about additional WMI classes available.
If you are keeping the software and want to use it longer than its trial time, we strongly encourage you purchasing the license key from Microsoft official website. Our releases are to prove that we can! Nothing can stop us, we keep fighting for freedom despite all the difficulties we face each day.
Last but not less important is your own contribution to our cause. You should consider to submit your own serial numbers or share other files with the community just as someone else helped you with Microsoft Visual Basic 6.0 serial number. Sharing is caring and that is the only way to keep our scene, our community alive.
I am writing an application in Visual Basic that pulls basic information about the computer and outputs the data onto a form. Currently, I am trying to pull the serial number for the machine I would be using. For example, pulling a serial number of a laptop from the BIOS. I have looked around the internet and haven't really found how to do this in Visual Basic without using WMI or C. Is there a way to do this in Visual Basic?
Below is what I have currently in the form, so you can get an idea of what I am trying to do:
Thank you all so much!

This will work for you just great! First add reference to System.Management and then make sure to import it at the top of your class as well. I did this on a form load event, but you can put it anywhere...
Vb6 Get Volume Serial Number
You can declare a string first if you would like and then set it to: info('serialnumber').ToString and the set that to you txtSerial.Text = your declared string
Here is what I get...
This is VBScript but should be pastable into VB6.
You do know this field is blank on many computers?
From a command prompt (but I don't think home editions get the console program wmic)
or
Try to use Treek's Licecnsing Library. It has class for generating hardware serial.
I found a way to get to this a bit backwards in VBA, using the FileSystemObject. You will need to set a reference to the Windows Scripting Runtime.
This does not account for multiple physical drives, which wasn't a problem in my environment.
