Hardware Coverage
What Dead by Daylight Tracks — and What TraceX Rewrites
Dead by Daylight's anti-cheat silently reads dozens of hardware identifiers from your PC while it's running — long before you reach a match. Learn how Dead by Daylight's anti-cheat works and why it's difficult to bypass without a spoofer. Below is a sample of the identifiers being tracked.
| Hardware Identifier | Dead by Daylight Tracks | TraceX Rewrites |
|---|---|---|
| CPU Serial (CPUID) | Yes | Yes |
| Motherboard Serial | Yes | Yes |
| GPU Device LUID | Yes | Yes |
| HDD / SSD Serial | Yes | Yes |
| NIC MAC Address | Yes | Yes |
| Windows Machine GUID | Yes | Yes |
Reality Check
Dead by Daylight Appeals Almost Never Work
And when they're denied — which is almost always for HWID bans — your hardware stays permanently blacklisted. No second chances.

Why You Need This
Do You Really Need an HWID Spoofer for Dead by Daylight?
Reinstalling Dead by Daylight doesn't move the Bloodweb forward — it loads the same banned hardware fingerprint that EasyAntiCheat already knows. Buy the game on a fresh Steam account, link a brand-new Behaviour account, and the moment you queue Trapper or Dwight against your friends the ban resurfaces before the lobby fills. EAC isn't keying off your prestige, your perks, or your hours — it's keying off the motherboard, disks, and network adapters you boot the Trial from. Until those identifiers change, every new account you make becomes another permanently-banned name on the same machine.
When EasyAntiCheat flags a Trial, BHVR's enforcement doesn't just sit on the Steam ID. The Terms of Use grant the studio the right to "temporarily or permanently ban your device from some or all BHVR Services" (§III.G), and EAC backs that up by reading a hardware fingerprint built from motherboard serial, SMBIOS UUID, disk identifiers, and the MAC addresses of every network adapter present at boot. Reinstall DbD, wipe Windows, format the drive — none of those rewrite the values stamped into firmware, and EAC sees the same machine the next time you launch the Trial.
That's why the second Steam account costs you another ~€30 of Auric Cells and gets banned before you finish your first chase. The Behaviour account that promises cross-progression is the same trap from a different angle: §III.B says the ban "shall be valid on all Platforms on which the Account or Single Account is connected and/or the equipment linked to such Account or Single Account." Linking a clean Behaviour account to your Epic launcher install, then logging it back into Steam DbD, hands BHVR the bridge they need to re-flag everything. Console DbD on PS5, Xbox, or Switch runs on platform-locked hardware where EAC's kernel driver isn't doing the fingerprinting — enforcement there falls back to the Behaviour account / platform OS layer, not the PC hardware fingerprint.
DbD's cheating reputation makes the trigger easy. You don't need a full speedhack lighting up Killer Instinct halfway across Coldwind. Subtle clients — silent footsteps, extended grab range on Wraith, perma-aura reads on a single Bloodweb — get flagged the same way. Even a ReShade swap on the wrong build, a NightLight perk-icon pack, or an old GameUserSettings.ini tweak can throw an EAC integrity error and roll into a permanent suspension if the wrong file lands in the EAC scan. And once it does, no amount of new accounts, new emails, new Behaviour-account links, or fresh Steam family invites will fix it — the path back into the Trial requires rewriting the hardware identifiers EAC reads at launch.

Why TraceX
Built for Dead by Daylight Players
You shouldn't need to replace your PC to play Dead by Daylightagain. That's why TraceX exists.
Run TraceX once before launching Dead by Daylight. No daemon, no startup entry, no background service. When you're done, delete the binary.
Your new hardware identifiers don't reset on reboot or reinstall. EasyAntiCheat reads them as permanent — exactly like a fresh build.
Every hardware identifier EasyAntiCheat reads — CPU, board, drives, GPU, NIC, Machine GUID — rewritten in a single pass.
TraceX runs before Dead by Daylight launches — not during. No FPS drops, no stutter, no driver hooks left running while you play.
TraceX updates ahead of Dead by Daylight detection cycles. New versions ship before changes land in the game.
When you load Dead by Daylight, EasyAntiCheat fingerprints what looks like a fresh system. Your real hardware is never exposed.
Setup Guide
How to Bypass a Dead by Daylight HWID Ban
Getting around a Dead by Daylight HWID ban used to take hours — reinstalling Windows, flashing BIOS, wiping drivers, re-downloading everything, and praying it worked. One wrong step meant starting over and burning another account. With TraceX, a single click does more than all of that combined.

FAQ
Dead by Daylight HWID Ban — Frequently Asked Questions
Does Dead by Daylight actually HWID ban?
Yes. EasyAntiCheat reports a hardware fingerprint to BHVR, and Behaviour's Terms of Use §III.G grant them the right to "permanently ban your device from some or all BHVR Services." Players confirm the experience: get banned on one Steam account, make a new one, and the same suspension resurfaces before the first Trial loads.
Will reinstalling Dead by Daylight or Windows fix the ban?
No. The ban is keyed to your hardware fingerprint, not to the DbD install or the Windows build. A fresh OS, a fresh Steam install, and even a fresh Behaviour account all read the same motherboard, disk, and network-adapter IDs EAC already flagged.
Does a DbD HWID ban affect other EAC games on the same PC?
No. EAC bans are per-publisher. A Behaviour ban locks you out of DbD and other Behaviour titles on that hardware, but Fortnite, Apex Legends, Rust, and other EAC-protected games run their own ban lists. Riot Vanguard and BattlEye are entirely separate systems.
Does the ban transfer if I switch from Steam to the Epic Games launcher?
Yes. BHVR's Terms of Use say a ban "shall be valid on all Platforms on which the Account or Single Account is connected and/or the equipment linked to such Account or Single Account." Once your Behaviour account is flagged, linking it to Epic doesn't unlock anything — and the hardware fingerprint follows the launcher anyway.
Can I get banned in DbD because of someone in my Steam Family Sharing?
Yes — there's been a wave of automated false positives starting late January 2026. Affected accounts span 600 to 6,000+ hours of legitimate playtime; BHVR's automated system propagated DbD bans to other Steam Family members based on years-old bans on a linked account. Some have been silently reversed (in-game pop-up apologies, replacement goodies); many are still stuck.
How long does a DbD HWID ban last?
Permanent by default. BHVR's policy is "zero tolerance" — once EAC flags an account for cheating, it's a permanent suspension with no expiry. Some players have reported "valid until 2036" messages on launch screens, which is BHVR's internal tag for indefinite.
Are appeals worth submitting?
Almost never for cheating. Appeals only realistically succeed when the ban is a clear automated mistake (Steam Family false positives, specific ReShade builds being flagged then cleared). For confirmed EAC detections, BHVR will not reverse — their public stance is that cheating bans are irreversible and discussed only via support ticket.
Console DbD doesn't have HWID bans, right?
Right. PlayStation, Xbox, and Switch versions of DbD run on platform-controlled hardware where EAC's kernel driver isn't doing the fingerprinting. A PC HWID ban doesn't follow you to console — your DLC carries over via Behaviour cross-progression as long as the Behaviour account itself isn't suspended.
Can I just swap a part to escape the ban?
Sometimes the motherboard alone is enough — but only if EAC isn't also reading disk serials, the SMBIOS UUID, or NIC MAC addresses on your build. Rebuying every part you might've left flagged is the brute-force approach. Replacing only an SSD or GPU usually leaves enough of the fingerprint matching the banlist that the next launch hits the same suspension.
Does EAC catch subtle cheaters (silent footsteps, slight haste) the same as obvious speedhacks?
In theory yes, in practice the subtle ones often slip past in real time. EAC catches them on signature scans and update sweeps after the fact — meaning a silent-footsteps loadout from months ago can still resurface as an HWID ban during a future ban wave once that cheat's signature lands in EAC's database.
