How to Retrieve Your UUID for SnowConvert Offline Activation in Linux

SnowConvert requires a UUID to validate the license for offline activation in Linux. Follow these steps to find and provide the UUID:

Step 1: Open a Terminal in Linux

  • Press Ctrl + Alt + T or search for "Terminal" in your application menu.

Step 2: Retrieve the UUID of the Root Device

blkid -s UUID -o value $(findmnt -n -o SOURCE /)

This command will output a UUID like:

5a14ccf7-6bac-47b7-a3d6-6c10822fb10d

Step 3: Send the UUID

Copy the UUID from Step 3 and send it to the SnowConvert support team for activation.

Troubleshooting

  • If you see a "Permission Denied" error, try running the command with sudo:

    sudo blkid -s UUID -o value $(findmnt -n -o SOURCE /)
