You really need to work on your English. Can you not use a translator?

You should really take your own advice.

OP: I recommend you use a licensing solution for this as your current method will be very vulnerable.

This method is, as x_Desire said, not very secure. Also, you said you "cant make it", does that mean you tried? If so, post your code so we can help.

If you're using this method as an actual way of attempting to secure your tool with a login system that's just plain out stupid.
Learn some basic PHP and get a server and make an actual login system, or use a licensing system that already exists.

If all OP needs is a login function, a text file containing username and passwords is as 'secure' as a server returning a 200 OK or a 403 Forbidden. Besides, in the end it all probably gets abstracted to a boolean anyways "if IsAllowed(username, password) ...", as I doubt OP will move code server sided or take other security measures.

Well yeah but I meant for user's security as well as the tool.
Storing login information on a plain text file accessible by anyone is stupid and is quite literally asking for your user's login info to be stolen.
