How to Get Your Host ID

Whether you have purchased one of our products/plugins or you just want to evaluate them, a license is required. To obtain your license you need to know your computer’s Host ID.

A Host ID is an unique identifier for a particular computer, and it is used by Mestrelab to generate and lock licenses to a specific machine.
