    regular win10 updates change SerialNumber

    Our software generates a unique machine fingerprint which is used in our product licensing.

    The machine fingerprint includes the SerialNumber obtained using WMI from Win32_OperatingSystem.

    Lately we have had a few customers reporting a failed license check due to a SerialNumber change after a regular win10 update (note: this is not an update from a previous win7/8/8.1 windows to windows 10).

    Example:

    * before update: 00000-00000-00000-ZZ938

    * after update: 0000-00000-00000-ZZ975

    Shouldn't SerialNumber be a value that does not change over time?

    Is there any other WMI property that I can access and uniquely identifies the OS?

    SerialNumber

    Find Serial Number of Windows PC


    Just to be clear it is the first powershell command on option 2 that is wrong.

    It says this:

    Get-WmiObject win32bios | Format-List SerialNumber

    It should say this (with the underscore)

    Get-WmiObject win32_bios | Format-List SerialNumber
