5 steps from launch to a fresh HWID
Windows will show the UAC prompt — click «Yes». Without administrator rights changing the HWID isn't possible.
The top row of the window shows your unique UID in XXX-XXX-XXX format and the current changes balance. Click the UID to copy it — you'll need it for payments and support. You start with 3 free changes.
A dialog opens with checkboxes — pick which identifiers to change (computer name, MAC addresses, disk serials, etc.) or keep all of them on. If you change MAC addresses, leave the «Restart adapters» checkbox enabled.
A progress bar at the bottom shows the current step. When you see «HWID changed» — done. Your balance drops by 1 (or stays ∞ if you have an active subscription).
The «Restore» button opens a paginated list (10 per page) with a date filter. ORIGIN is your initial HWID before the first change — always pinned to the top. Click any row to roll the HWID back to that state.
Unlimited HWID changes — from $10/month
