I was wondering...what...

I believe you're right MacGyver...


srand(time(NULL));
_tcscpy(ProductID, _T("{%8X-%4X-%4X-%4X-%12X}\n", 12345678, rand(), rand(), rand(), rand()));

I'm trying to check the validity of a file by getting its size, but when I check for the size of this file the size is always 0xFFFFFFFF meaning that the file is invalid. I have the file in the same...

#include <stdio.h>
#include <conio.h>

int infiniteloop(int index);

int main() {
infiniteloop(0);
}

int infiniteloop(int index) {
