What is a HWID?
HWID stands for Hardware (HW) Identifier (ID). This is a unique code generated from various components of your PC.
The chance of a HWID being the same as any other is so small, its considered unique over the whole world.
What is a lock?
Most hacks "lock" into your HWID. It means when the first time you activate your key, your HWID is "saved".
Each time the key is used, it will check if the HWID matches the saved one. If it matches, the hack will work, if it does not, then the hack will give an error.

Why are you doing this?
This is done to prevent people sharing their license key or reselling it after usage.
