Get System Info
« on: May 28, 2020, 06:38:50 AM »
As a measure of precaution here, are there some of these fields which are bound to change IF the user of a device updates (or changes) the Operating System?
Or, in other words, what fields will always remain the same on a given device, no matter what the user does?

I'm pretty sure the information this action gathers is only called upon ONCE its active, and if you want to update the information you'd need to call upon it once again.
I don't really know what you're asking for or worried about.
If the information changes. Ok... Just overwrite the old information if that was stored somewhere, no problem.

May I need to rephrase my question? I thought it was sufficiently detailed.

I know how the action works. What I need to know is how the data it provides behaves; i.e. what informations will change if the user updates his device. Nothing else.

Hi,

Sorry, I am too confused by your question, if the user change his graphic cards, I think it's obvious that there is a very high chance that the graphic card infos will change. Right?

Are you looking for a way to make a serial number to recognize user+machine to prevent multiple installs or tracking statistics? The device unique Identifier should be enough ( though I can't guarantee this is true and will remain the same no matter what)

Bye,

 Jean
