Reset windows system on VM same as a normal PC
 

Hi,
I run three accounts in my VM, and two of them are down. I need to reset my windows system to make it look like a fresh PC. I'm wondering if it's the same as doing it on a normal PC? Will Amazon still be able to recognize it?
Thanks in advance

Why not use VMware? It'll be like a fresh PC. And why did they go down?

I am suing VM.
there are 3 account in my VM, 2 down, I think the simple way is just reset my windows on each VM account and make it like a fresh PC. I know it works on a normal PC , just not sure if works on VM.

amazon can identify computers and all users on them , just create new vm's with fresh windows

I'm very leery on VMware and amazon.

I'd rather just spend a few hundred $$ for a new laptop and dedicate each to amazon.

0 issues so far and haven't been suspended.

^^^ this.

New Virtual machines created with VMware cannot be connected.

I create new machines using a Windows 10 Disk Image, activate with one of the many 'workarounds'. Job Done - works perfectly.

I also make sure that each Machine has it's own IP address, how you do that is up to you. I can't trust myself via a shared router/hotspot to get it right every time.

Again, I'm not taking the risk of VM even if it's 1%.
1 hardware = 1 amazon. period.

What's the issue with your router? FOr me since I use a lot of accounts, residential ip has worked flawlessly for me

hardware is cheap,yes,get one per account.

There's no risk as I mentioned above. Am I having 3 or 4 PC's on my desk - not a chance. What makes you think there's a risk? If Amazon could link VM's I'd have been sunk years ago.

With regards to the router, what I meant is that I have a dedicated V.P.N IP source for each VM, I'm not messing with the 'switch off, switch on' routine that some use to change IP for each machine be it a VM or stand alone PC.

Indeed, I use a different provider for each IP as a belt and braces approach, there's no way I'm using the same supplier for all of them, not even if the chances of being linked are 1%.

Because I have seen people get nailed using their VMware before. It's great it works for you, but I always eliminate even the smallest link that could potentially cause problems.

Amazon is a bitch as it is, I don't need extra stress.

AH ok! Yea, that's good on the VPN stuff, it's so much faster and efficient.
15 years ago I was doing the stealth guide modem reset approach and using 30 accounts eventually the IP pool kinda repeats too many times that it can take me 15 min to get a good IP to use.

But now with the residential ip all I need to do is change user account for eBay or just fire up the laptop.

They may suggest it was VMware, it wasn't. :thumb:
