: A recent Windows update changed how virtual drivers or the registry interact with the Sentinel Emulator.

Paste your newly acquired hardware UID into the designated field.

Warning: Editing the registry is risky. Back it up first.

This message indicates a mismatch between the Autodata software’s expected hardware signature (what it thinks should be linked to your license) and the actual dongle or license information currently connected. In short, the software detects that the license key or dongle identity it expects does not match the one present, so it blocks access.

Wait 2–4 minutes for Windows to recognize the "new hardware". 4. Adjust Regional Settings

Select the correct option matching your architecture (e.g., 64-bit or 32-bit), then click to export a new registration script file (usually named license.reg or autodata.reg ).

While Autodata has released many versions (e.g., 3.45, 10.45, etc.), "345" in the error context often refers to a specific build or a cracked/patched version circulating in online forums. In legitimate copies, a similar error may appear as error code or simply a text string. Regardless of the exact version, the core mechanism is the same: the software expects a dongle with specific hardware information, but it detects a mismatch.

The "Hardware information does not match with your dongle" error in Autodata 3.45 indicates a mismatch between the license/emulator and the system's current Hardware ID (UID). Resolution typically involves regenerating a new registry license file based on the current UID, ensuring Sentinel drivers are installed, and running the emulator as an administrator.
