generateComputerId.exe generator problem

[comper]

Hello!

Looking for a solution to protect my software.

Now I'm using generateComputerId.exe from NI to generate unique IDs. But my customers found a problem. Sometimes when switching wi-fi ON and OFF generateComputerId.exe generates different IDs for the same PC. So I need to generate personal license for my customer again.

I thought of generating IDs on the base of HDD info, not MAC.

Can anyone tell me if any exe or utility from Ni exists to generate unique IDs on the base of HDD info of smth.?

Thanks

Hi comper,

It depends on the specific computer (if it is a laptop or a desktop) for how it determines its ID. It could either be based off of you MAC address of the network card or your Hard Drive's serial number. If you have made any changes with that, that will change the computer ID.

Give us a call back at 1-866-275-6964 so we can help you through that.

Best,
