I have a trial version of Photoshop on a fairly basic computer (no other apps) and I thought ‘Well I’d actually like another 30 days please’. So I reinstall the operating system… But Photoshop is cleverer than me and it knows that I’ve already had my time.

How does it do this (I reformatted the hard drive) and can I get another trial period?

HDDs have spare tracks that are used if bad ones are found. The locations of the bad/spare tracks is kept on the drive. One possibility is that PS is using one of the unallocated spare tracks. It may also be using an otherwise inaccessible track. If that’s the case, no amount of re-partitioning and re-formatting is going to make a difference. You’ll have to write a low-level disk access program that reads the tracks on the disk.
