A Hardware Against Software Piracy (HASP) dongle is a type of computer hardware device designed to combat software piracy. These devices must be plugged into a computer in order for software to function, and are often used in place of serial numbers or other forms of authentication. Dongles can also be used to create and enforce other business models for software, such as rental or feature-driven models. For end users, dongles can offer both convenience and frustration.
A HASP dongle fills much the same purpose as a product key or activation system found in consumer software, but is usually confined to highly specialized software programs used in a variety of industries. These types of programs, which include professional printing software, forensics software, high end audio programs, and computer aided design (CAD) applications, often carry high per license price tags, making them lucrative targets for the black and grey markets. To combat piracy and prevent organizations from using software on more computers than they have purchased licenses for, some software publishers make use of HASP dongles.

Been trying to crack that one for a year or so, wireshark has some interresting logs but to no avail yet. To give me a new key for the hard drive i just replaced. A hasp key is usually a USB licensing dongle. This is a Hardware License key. Instead of using a license Key or code, some software companies provide this 'hardware' licensing key. No, you cannot copy it to a CD/DVD.
Customers who use this software must connect a specially programmed HASP dongle to a computer before the software will function. Without the dongle, some programs will run in a demo or trial mode, while others will not run at all. Software publishers usually purchase dongles and dongle software from other corporations, and the dongles must be specially tailored for the programs they will be protecting.
Hello everyone, yesterday my friend asked me to help him to eliminate a HASP dongle from his PC. His PC was installed Strand7 and it needs a USB dongle which has type HASP to work exactly. I accepted his request to help him. I noticed that his PC was installed Windows 7 64 bit Professional.I searched on Internet and read many web pages regarding dongle emulator. I found a emulator named EDGEHASP2007 but unfortunately it didn't work on Windows 7 64 bit. Then, I continued searching on Internet and I found HASPHL2010 but it is not free so I didn't try it. I thought I will give up but I still hope I can find a free emulator. Fortunately, I found this page https://www.techidiots.net/notes/emulate-hasp-hl-pro-1/emulate-hasp-hl-pro describing some steps for installing MultiKey emulator but it noted that you must re-install your software on Windows XP 32 bit after which you must use some tools to dump HASP key and create registry file. Because I didn't have Windows XP I cannot follow this method. I searched on Internet again and I found this tool [Universal HASP SRM / HL / 4 / Hardlock Dongle Dumper v.1.3]. It can dump HASP key and create registry file for you altogether. It's a awesome tool made by rengteam. Great thanks to rengteam. Finally, I managed to install MultiKey USB Dongle Emulator.
Now, I want to write some steps here:

Now that you already got your dongle password. It's time to generate registry file.
If your dongle is Sentinel SuperPro/UltraPro, please use SSP2MK_1.2 to generate registry file.
If your dongle is HASP or HASP HL then you need to use RTDumperGUI to generate registry file. Please carefully read readme.txt file before doing. For HASP (or HASP HL) dongle you must input two parts of your dongle password into two contiguous textboxes. For example, my dongle password is 725F:583A so I must input 725F into the first textbox and 583A into the second textbox.
