い。[Prior Art and Problems to be Solved by the Invention] When a user owns various information processing devices, there are many application programs and operating systems used in these information processing devices. You will also own the program at the same time. Under such circumstances, a user mistakenly gives one information processing device a program that should be executed by another information processing device and causes it to execute it.

の実行を正常に継続させる。The method of the present invention includes loading a program from an external storage device into the first storage device of an information processing device, which includes a program execution device, a first storage device, and a second storage device in which device-specific identification information is stored in advance. In the validity confirmation method for confirming the validity of a program, during execution of the program loaded into the first storage means, the execution means stores permission information included in the program and the second storage means. It is detected whether or not the stored identification information unique to the information processing apparatus matches, and only when a match is detected, the execution of the program is allowed to continue normally.
次に本発明について図面を参照して詳細に説明する。 Next, the present invention will be explained in detail with reference to the drawings.

に。First, when the execution means 11 is instructed to transfer a desired application program through the input means 14t'', the execution means 11 is designated and transfers a desired application program.
A program is read from the storage device 2 and loaded into the first storage means 12. In response to the completion of this loading, the execution means 11 first executes the [authentication routine portion 3] of this program. That is, as shown in FIG.

れることによるファイルの内容の破壊等全防止できる。The identification information stored at address A of the second storage means 13 is read out (step A1), and whether or not this identification information matches the permission information included in this routine part is checked (step A2). At this time, if both 1 and 1 match, it is determined that this program is a valid program (that is, it can be executed by the device 1), and the program moves to execution of the main routine part 4 (step A3).
If the two do not match in step A2, it is determined that this program is an invalid program, and appropriate processing such as displaying this on the output child [15] is performed.
Execution of the routine portion of the program body is prohibited (step A4). In this way, it is possible to completely prevent file contents from being destroyed due to execution of an illegal program.
