Perm vs temp HWID
What a hardware-ID spoofer changes, how perm and temp differ, and what it will not do to a banned account.
Published by Lethal Solutions Support
1What the spoofer changes
An HWID spoofer changes the identifiers that games and anti-cheat clients store for a machine — disk serials, motherboard UUID, MAC addresses, SMBIOS data, GPU identifiers and similar fields. It gives the machine a different hardware identity. It does not remove a ban from an account.
Perm
Perm applies persistent changes that survive a reboot. It is the convenient option if you want the new identity to stay after every restart. Follow the restart sequence that ships with the product. Check Status for the perm product before you run it.
Temp
Temp applies changes for the current session only. After a restart, the original identifiers return. It is reversible by design. Use it when you want a one-session identity or you are not ready to persist a change. Check Status for the temp product separately — the two rows are not the same.
It will not unban an account
The banned account stays banned. The product only changes the machine identity presented with a new account. If you launch the banned account on a spoofed machine, you have not lifted that ban.
2How a run usually goes
The product pages describe the same shape: order, then run the signed spoofer as Administrator, then reboot once before opening the game or its anti-cheat client. Motherboard serial, GPU UUID, disk signature and MAC are rotated at kernel level on that documented path. Use the instructions attached to your key, not a generic video.
- 1Check Status for the exact perm or temp row you bought
- 2Open the key on the Downloads page
- 3Run the issued build as Administrator
- 4Complete the restart sequence in those instructions
- 5Only then launch the game or anti-cheat
3This is not a DMA card
A spoofer runs on the gaming PC. A DMA stack is a second machine plus a PCIe card. Do not follow DMA flash notes on a cleaner order, and do not expect a cleaner to replace firmware.
When to open Discord
Open a ticket with the order ID if the official sequence fails, if you changed Windows or the motherboard after activation, or if you need a licence reset. Reset rules depend on the product and provider. Do not send a 'it does not work' message with no Status state and no error text.
