in DTP

I accidently deleted the "Admin" account from the administration portion of DTP. If I reinstall DTP will the MachineID change? ALso is there a workaround where I can add the user back in. ? This is the error I am getting.

    Reinstalling Uninstalling and Reinstalling does not change the Machine ID.

    I've upgraded DTP server from 5.3.4 -> 2020.2 by 2 iterations:
    1) 5.3.4 - > 5.4.3 - MachineID isn't changed
    2) 5.4.3 -> 2020.2 - MachineID is changed

    Additionally I've checked local MachineID for 2020.1 (thru client distibutive) - MachineID didn't change.

    So, only upgrade to 2020.2 will change MachineID.

    Please see release notes for 2020.2 release which mentions changes to machineID.

    https://docs.parasoft.com/display/DTP20202/DTP+2020.2

    Upgrade Notes
    Upgrading to 2020.2 on Windows changes the machine ID for the host running DTP. As a result, licenses stored and served from the License Server module become invalid. If DTP contains invalid licenses after upgrading, contact your Parasoft representative to obtain new licenses.
