Description

I was requested by support (or fulfillment) to find my UUID.  How can find that?

Cause: Statistica license files use the STATID in licenses starting with Statistica 13.2.   The STATID is the UUID of the computer where Statistica is installed. UUID is the "Universal Unique Identifier", sometimes referred to as the GUID ("Globally Unique Identifier").  See https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4122.txt for more information.
