Unlocking your DVD Unit

Unblocking Windows

Windows also has its own area code, that is used by some programs. This protection has to be broken, too. Luckily, DVDGenie can also break this Windows lock: just go to the Windows tab of the program. If you have Windows 98 or ME, configure the area you want or “zero” the area configuration. In case of Windows 2000 and XP, if the area protection is activated, you can break it by clicking in the XP/2K set Region to 0 box.

That’s it. Now you should be able to play DVD discs from any country in the world in your DVD unit.
