Hi everyone,
I created a windows virtual machine and then I made a copy of it.
I put the new machine on another computer.
Is there a way to identify, within windows, that there are 2 different virtual machines?
I want to protect my software with a unique key based on the machine it runs on, but I don't know how to handle it with virtual machines.
thank's

That would depend on what factors/inputs/element you could use to generate the unique key.
Some vendors do it by the MAC address of the network adapter (whether Windows is running on a physical system or in a virtual machine).
What are you actually trying to prevent?
At the moment nothing, I can use the mac address but it works if the VM is on the same PC in two different PC I can have the same.
You still haven’t said what you’re actually trying to prevent.
