How to Reset Your HWID
Your license is locked to the PC you first activated it on, identified by its hardware ID (HWID). If you change hardware or reinstall Windows, the loader won't recognise the PC anymore. A HWID reset unlocks the key so it binds to your new setup the next time you start the loader.
When you need one
- You replaced your motherboard, CPU or system drive.
- You reinstalled Windows.
- You're moving to a new PC.
Reset it yourself
There's no form and no waiting for support.
- Signed in: open your licenses and click Reset HWID next to the key.
- Not signed in: go to the HWID reset page, enter your license key and confirm.
Then start the loader on your new setup. The key binds to it automatically. On a fresh Windows install, go through the setup instructions again before you launch.
Note
A reset only works on a key that has already been activated. There's also a cooldown between resets. The page tells you when your next reset becomes available.
Rules
Warning
Each license is for one person on one PC at a time. Sharing or reselling keys, or using resets to run a key on several machines, gets the license revoked without a refund.
If a reset is refused and you think it shouldn't be, contact support with your license key.
