Because your hardware profile has changed, your old license registry file no longer matches your machine. You must generate a matching license.
The web-hosted Autodata Workshop Application bypasses local hardware security profiles completely. It executes all diagnostic data processing inside a browser environment, eliminating configuration errors, driver corruption, and local registry mismatches. To narrow down the exact resolution path, tell me:

Updating the driver directly through Device Manager can sometimes resolve "invalid hardware identification" errors.
: The software can be very sensitive to changes in your system's environment. Even seemingly minor alterations can cause the calculated hardware ID to change. The most frequently reported cause is a Windows update . A significant system update can alter system files or configurations that the software uses to generate its unique ID, breaking the link to the dongle.

If you are a mechanic, technician, or DIY enthusiast relying on a local installation of Autodata, encountering the error can completely halt your diagnostic workflow. This specific error indicates a security mismatch between the Autodata software license file, your computer’s hardware signature, and the physical USB security key (dongle) or its software emulator.
Legacy versions rely on Sentinel or HASP dongle drivers. If Windows automatically updates or corrupts these drivers, the software can no longer read the dongle data correctly.
You must contact Autodata support (or your reseller) to issue a new license file linked to the current HID of your dongle.
If you recently installed a major Windows Update or upgraded internal components, your license file must be regenerated to reflect the new hardware state.
