A HWID reset unlinks your account from your current hardware so you can use it on a different PC. Here's how to request one.
When you need a reset
- Moved to a new PC or laptop
- Reinstalled Windows
- Replaced your motherboard, CPU, or main storage drive
- Getting a "HWID mismatch" error on loader login
How to request
Include the following in your message so we can process it in one go:
- Your account username
- The reason for the reset (new PC, Windows reinstall, motherboard swap, etc.)
Turnaround time
Most requests are processed within a few hours during our active hours. If your request has been sitting for over 24 hours with no response, ping the @developer role.
What happens after the reset
Once we approve:
- Your account is unlinked from the old hardware.
- Next launch locks your account to that machine.
- The old machine can no longer login to your account on the loader.
If you meant to keep both machines active, that's not possible on a single account, you will need to purchase another key from the Shop and create a new account for your second PC.
Note
Resets are approved case-by-case. We look at how recently you've reset and whether the it looks normal rather than account sharing. If a request is denied we'll tell you why and what to do next.
