So I am trying to reverse a program and crack it but I am not able to find any of the Strings through searching for "referenced Strings" or "binary Strings", I am new to OllyDBG and I don't know a lot about it, which is why this is driving me crazy. I'd like to know how or where I can find the Strings then or if there is another method of finding a given Assembly Line where I could start.

Thank you already :)

Edit: If you need any more information, just ask and I'll deliver it.

Already asked in ReverseEngineering Stackexchange but it seems like nobody there knows or has the time to answer.

searching for All referenced strings only show you some function that push address of string but it cant find the address when calculate the address before.

here is a good idea:

press Alt + M and press Ctrl + B and search. it will find any string.

and then select the memory and use memory break-point for selected memory.
