Hi,

I'm using the HardwareLockId for protecting my script and all works fine,
but I'm just trying to run the script on Max 2010 x64 and my HardwareLockId is set to 0.
This function doesn't work on max2010 ?
Thanks

One thing to consider doing is to lock your script by max version. That'll limit unwanted distribution a little ....at least until you work out another protection scheme.

As far as I know, Autodesk recommends you don't use the HardwareLockId function as it's unreliable. It's probable they just disabled it for 2010. I'm afraid you are going to have to come up with a different way of protecting your scripts.
