Answer 1

That information is stored in your system registry.

Answer 2

The registry. When software is installed, it leaves registry entries, that are not always deleted when you delete software.

Unless you know what you are doing, do not edit your registry. You could cause serious disruption to your PC. Get a book about your version of windows, and learn to edit registry keys.

Alternatively, pay for the software you are using, after the trial period runs out. That's the best way.

Answer 3

The Softwares are stored in "C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Application Data" like this destination in your computer.
Or it will be in your "C:\WINDOWS" Or if it is downloaded from the Internet, It will be in your "C:\WINDOWS\Downloaded Program Files\Downloaded Program Files" Or You can see your "C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files" if it is not deleted or empty.
Download the patch files from internet and install it or patch ur file by using proper patch file.
