Volume ID + UNC Pathname (5)

Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

 

This Installation Code combines the Volume ID with the UNC pathname (details).

 

Pros/Cons

+ Always available and always works

+ Works in single user and network environment

+ Allows only one installation on one machine

- After reinstallation of Windows, the volume ID changes

- Volume ID’s are always the same when a image tool is used to set up a drive

 

Recommendation

Should be used for enterprise users which have problems using the installation code with the MAC address and which want to make sure that the application is only installed once

 

For a server licence only use an installation code combined with the UNC pathname.
