- Locking code 1, starting with 4- is a Disk ID locking code.
- Locking code 2, starting with 80- is a Computer ID (USB key) locking code.
If you see a 1E-xxxxx locking code, that means either echoid was not run as an admin or that it is being run from inside a zipped folder. If you see a 0-0 locking code, it means that the locking code could not be determined. This can occur for locking code 2 when the USB key is not plugged in or when the USB key driver has not been installed properly. Please refer to the Computer ID (CID) key not recognized page for troubleshooting instructions.
