The Locking code is a unique number based on the hardware components in your
computer. It can change if you make a major modification to your PC.
It's generated by the PC itself. That's why sometime you need to re-activate
JAWS if you add or remove some major hardware components like IDE drives or
CD-ROMS.
JAWS licensing requires the locking code as a way to ensure that it's not
installed on too many computers. A new locking code tells JAWS that your
activation is no longer valid.
It is not the authorization 20-digit code you get from FS to install JAWS.
If that one is lost, you need to contact FS directly to get it again.

Subject: What is a lock code?
I see the lock code whenever I activate a new version of JAWS, but at
no other time. What is the purpose of this yet another series of numbers???
