Reinstalling ...

[Tom_Hall]

Hi - currently, if a pc's OS is trashed & the OS is re-installed (same hardware, same pc name), re-adding it to PC monitor does not overwrite the "dead" entry of the previous installation - is this something that could this be implemented at some stage please ?

If you reinstall the OS we won't be able to do that. You will have to remove the "dead" entry manually.

Hmmm - overwriting the old / dead entry seems (to me), to be a logical thing to do - could you elaborate on why this isn't possible ?

On installation a unique identifier is generated for the computer. After reinstall the old identifier is lost - we do not identify the computer by name and group name.
