Hello.
this problem seems to be Windows 10 related. I guess Windows 10 updates are changing my Machine ID frequently - without changing hardware.
So my purchased DGDeCNV license is getting invalid and I always have to create a new one for the same PC.
Any suggestions for this annoying issue?
Kind Regards
Matthias

Re: Machine ID changes frequently
Hm, I can't run the application. Blockey by SmartScreen, when selecting to do it anyway the application window is closing.
Re: Machine ID changes frequently
You have to download the EXE and then open a CMD window and type "mbserialnumber" to run it. Is that what you did?

OK, I know what's going on, thanks for the testing. I'll release a slipstream tomorrow to fix that.
Re: Machine ID changes frequently
Hopefully fixed in slipstream 161. Note that if you do not have a valid mobo ID then you will need to generate a new license for this slipstream but thereafter the machine ID and license should be stable. Those people with a valid mobo ID will not need to make a new license.

Re: [RESOLVED] Machine ID changes frequently
Good news!
DGTools license generator allows a maximum of 16 license numbers. Because of this issue I've wasted a few. So could you please reset my possible license number changes?
