Edit a Dword to create AllowHardcore if it isn't already there and put the value as 1 and it should unlock hardcore.

I believe that's it. I'd have to reinstall it and check again though just to be 100% sure.

As far as I know Hardcore doesn't have to be unlocked anymore. But I'm not too sure on that because I haven't played in a while. Only my brother, who's been playing the game for proabably 5 years straight with no interruptions doing baalruns and other powerleveling nonstop.
