R2R System – Utility for Handling TEAM R2R Plugin Installations & Licensing

R2R System Overview

R2R System contains the necessary tools and runtimes for our releases. After a long development cycle, we are pleased to announce the release of the first version of the R2R system. It includes a wealth of “witches’ wisdom” that will make life better for us, end users, and other hackers.
In future releases, the R2R system will be the default. Please get used to these new tools before it’s too late. Please note that version 1.x is considered an open beta. If necessary, a major update may
introduce breaking changes for developers (especially to the SDK).

R2R System Features

• New: Added new WitchUnIns to create a batch uninstaller for R2R installers.
• New: WitchWand throws an error if WitchMagic is built for a newer R2R system.
• New: Updated R2R signature to version 2. Version 2 (which is more secure than version 1) is better suited for emulated Windows environments.
Future versions of Magic will be signed with version 2. Version 1 signature checking on the R2R system will be discontinued in the future.
• Fixed: Text output of EZKG_Juce*() functions is not null-terminated.
• Fixed: Slightly improved performance of R2RSys_GetVersion() function.
——————————————————————————
Comments on this update:
• Uninstalling the batch uninstaller is now much easier than before!
• We didn’t think we’d need to check the version because we always provide enough information in the Runtime.txt file.
• Version 1 of the signature uses the ECDSA P256 + SHA512 algorithm. There are no problems on real Windows machines.
The problem is that the P256 + SHA512 combination is not that popular and can cause problems in the emulated Windows environment.
That’s why we switched to version 2 (ECDSA P521 + SHA512). Please note that we will no longer change the signature scheme unless we find a vulnerability. If Windows emulation still doesn’t work correctly, please contact the emulator developer for a fix or contribute to the solution.

R2R System what is it for?

R2R System is a utility system from Team R2R that is used in their music plugin and software releases.
Simply put, it’s the infrastructure that allows their patches and keygens to work.
What is the R2R System for?
Launching new keygen modules
Previously, releases included a regular keygen.exe.
Now a new system is used:
WitchWand → launches WitchMagic
The WitchMagic file (.r2rwm) contains the license generation logic.
Internet blocking for R2R System plugins
replaces Windows network libraries:
WINHTTP.dll
WININET.dll
WINTRUST.dll
WS2_32.dll
This is done to prevent the program from checking the license online.
Common platform for releases
Now all new R2R releases use one system:
R2R System
├ WitchConfig
├ WitchDiag
├ WitchWand
└ WitchMagic
This simplifies updates.
Automatic name substitution
In the settings, you can save:
User Name
Company
Email
And the keygen automatically substitutes them in activation.
R2R developed this system because antivirus programs began deleting regular keygen.exe files en masse.
The new WitchMagic system is more stable and harder to detect.

FAQ

Q) Is a root certificate really necessary?
A) The R2R system typically operates without a certificate.
However, some products may still rely on a certificate to function.
We always test our versions on computers with a certificate installed.
Q) Has the root certificate been changed since the first version was released?
A) No, you don’t need to update.
Q) Does the R2R system have special privileges in Windows?
A) No. Here are all the changes made to the computer.
-> Place the executable files in “%programfiles%\TEAM R2R\R2R System”.
-> Place the plugin DLL files in “%commonprogramfiles%\TEAM R2R\R2R System\”.
-> Place the runtime DLL files in “%windir%\System32”.
-> Associate the “.r2rwm” extension with “WitchWand.exe”
If in doubt, try deleting all R2R system files while Windows is running.
You should be able to delete all files without errors.
