This article describes how to replace your existing demo credentials with your individual details so that you can connect to your live database after submitting your personal credentials.
When logging in for the first time with the demo access data, pixi saves it in the registry of your computer and connects to the demo database each time an application is started. If you want to connect to your database, it is necessary to adjust the data stored in the local registry.
Create a so-called registration file (see also: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Registry). This has the following content:

Sample content of a registry file for Windows XP/ Vista/7 32-bit
This will remove the demo access data from your registry and asks you for your own access data the next time you start a pixi application.
Tip: To find your system type (32 or 64 bit), open the system properties of your computer by right-clicking My Computer/Computer > Properties.
Registry path depending on the operating system
Depending on which Windows operating system you use in connection with pixi and which permissions are assigned to your Windows user, the above-mentioned registration path ([HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE ...]) deviates from the actual path.
Therefore, please note the following paths and replace the above path with the path to your operating system from the list:
32-Bit-System
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Madgeniuses\Pixi]
[HKEY_CURRENT_USERS\SOFTWARE\Madgeniuses\Pixi]
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\VirtualStore\MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Madgeniuses\Pixi]
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\VirtualStore\MACHINE\Software\Madgeniuses\Pixi]
64-Bit-System
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Madgeniuses\Pixi]
[HKEY_CURRENT_USERS\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Madgeniuses\Pixi]
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\VirtualStore\MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Madgeniuses\Pixi]
