Seeing a “You have been banned” message in Genshin Impact is frustrating, but realizing your entire PC has been flagged—not just your account—can feel like your journey’s blocked for good. If you’ve been hit with a Hardware ID (HWID) ban and want a genuine way to bypass it and jump back into Teyvat, you’re in the right spot.

You've come to the right place.

This is the go-to guide you need. Forget wasting hours on pointless appeals or shelling out expensive cash on new hardware. We’ll walk you through a clear, step-by-step method to fix your HWID ban and get you exploring again in no time.

We’ll focus on how to tackle this using the game industry's most trusted and stealthy tool: Sync Spoofer. We’ll break down every step, highlight common pitfalls to avoid, and share top habits to keep you playing smoothly long-term.

How to Fix Your Genshin Impact HWID Ban

This isn’t just quick tips; it’s a thorough walkthrough to help you get past Genshin Impact HWID bans. Stick to these steps to ensure your bypass is both effective and lasting.

Step 1: Pick the Best Spoofer (Sync Spoofer)

Your first and most important move is picking a spoofer that’s reliable. Free or cracked spoofers from sketchy forums often carry malware or are already flagged by anti-cheat, meaning you could get banned even faster.

Sync Spoofer is a premium tool crafted by pros. There’s even a free 1-day trial so you can test it without risk. You’ll find two main options:

  • Temporary Spoofer (15, 30, 90 Days, or Lifetime): The Flexible Pick
    • Who needs this? Perfect for players who switch accounts or software often. It’s ideal if you can’t risk downtime or don’t want to reinstall Windows. Just run it before starting Genshin, and your hardware IDs get a temporary “mask.” After reboot, everything goes back to normal—safe and reversible.
    • How it works: It quickly disguises your hardware IDs so Genshin’s anti-cheat won’t recognize your PC, but only for the current session.
  • Permanent Spoofer (One-Time or Lifetime): The Set-and-Forget Fix
    • Who needs this? Ideal if you’ve been banned and want a fresh, permanent clean slate to play legit again. This is the ultimate solution for a long-term reconnect with Genshin Impact.
    • How it works: This deeply changes your system’s hardware identifiers permanently. Setting it up needs a one-time Windows reinstall to wipe old traces. After that, your PC looks like a brand-new device forever to the anti-cheat system.

Step 2: Join the Community & Download Your Files

After purchase, you’ll get instant access to our private Discord server via a bot. This isn't just a download hub; it’s where you get all your support. Inside, you’ll find:

  • Immediate Access: Your license key and up-to-date Sync Spoofer downloads anytime you need them.
  • Step-by-Step Guides: Detailed written instructions and videos walk you through every move.
  • Live Support: Our 24/7 expert team is ready to help you if you hit any snags.

Step 3: Clean and Spoof Your System

This is the most technical part, but Sync Spoofer automates the heavy lifting for you. It’s a two-stage process:

  1. Stage One: Deep Clean: Before changing anything, you must erase every trace of your prior ban. Think of this like wiping fingerprints from a crime scene. Genshin’s anti-cheat leaves tiny hidden traces like log files, registry entries, and more that can link you to your ban history. Our cleaner wipes all that away. Learn more about how to handle this in our HWID Cleaner, Reset & Bypass Bans guide.
  2. Stage Two: Spoofing: After cleaning, run Sync Spoofer. It completely replaces your hardware IDs—motherboard, drives, MAC address, and peripherals—with fresh, legitimate-looking ones. Your PC becomes a “ghost” that the anti-cheat has never spotted before. For deep insights, check How to Bypass HWID Ban.

Step 4: Make a Fresh Genshin Impact Account

Your hardware ID is clean, but trying your old Genshin account will trigger an instant ban flag. You need a brand-new identity.

Here’s how to set up your new account safely:

  • Use a new email address you’ve never linked to a banned account.
  • Pick a different username unrelated to your old one.
  • Important: Don’t link the same payment info (credit cards, PayPal), phone numbers, or social accounts (like Twitch or Xbox profiles) you used before. Genshin’s anti-cheat cross-checks this data hard.

Step 5: Final Check and Launch Genshin Impact

Almost there! Before you dive back into Teyvat, run through this quick checklist:

  • Restart your PC after finishing the cleaning and spoofing steps.
  • Make sure the Temporary Spoofer is running if you went that route.
  • Open the new Genshin Impact account via the official launcher.
  • Download and launch the game.

And just like that, you’re back exploring! Your old HWID ban is behind you.

More Than Just Bypass: Stay Safe for the Long Haul

Getting unbanned is only half the battle. Staying off the radar in Genshin Impact is what really matters. Sync Spoofer masks your hardware perfectly, but your gaming habits and digital footprints mean just as much. Follow these smart tips for the best protection:

1. Keep Your Profiles Separate

This is the golden rule. Treat your new, “clean” Genshin account like it’s in a completely different world from any experimental or risky accounts. The game’s anti-cheat doesn’t only check your PC; it looks for connections.

  • Don't Cross Link: Never use the same email, payment methods, phone numbers, or social accounts between your banned and new accounts. Any overlap might get you flagged again.
  • Use Different Browsers or Profiles: Consider dedicating one browser (like Firefox) to your new clean gaming accounts and another (like Chrome) for everything else to avoid cookies or autofill data linking you.
  • Think Like Genshin’s Detectives: If any connection could be made between your old and new accounts, so can the anti-cheat. Leave no digital scent behind.

2. Check Background Programs Before Playing

Sometimes bans happen not from cheats running actively, but from leftover programs quietly running in the background. Genshin’s anti-cheat scans all running processes.

  • Close Unnecessary Apps: Before launching the game, check your system tray and Task Manager and close anything non-essential:
    • Macro Tools: Anything like AutoHotKey or mouse/keyboard macros.
    • Debbuggers or Cheat Engines: These alone raise huge red flags.
    • Overlays: While common ones like Discord or GeForce Experience are usually fine, obscure overlays can sometimes trigger false alarms.
  • Set Up a Clean Startup: Advanced users can create a Windows startup profile that loads only essential software to avoid conflicts.

3. Be Prepared for Ban Waves

Anti-cheat systems rarely ban cheaters the moment they catch them. Usually, they collect data silently and then ban groups of offenders in a single “ban wave.”

  • Why? It confuses cheat devs, making it hard to know how their tool was caught.
  • What This Means: Your new cheat might seem safe for a week or two, then suddenly you’re banned. It’s not random—it’s a strategic mass ban.
  • The Bright Side: Using Sync Spoofer means only your spoofed identity got flagged, not your real machine. Just clean, spoof again, and you’re back.

4. Only Trust the Best Sources

The web is filled with scams and flagged tools. Where you get your software is crucial.

  • Never Use “Free” Cheats: YouTube or shady sites claiming “free Genshin hacks” almost always carry malware or are instantly detected and will get you banned fast.
  • Stick to Trusted Communities: If you use third-party tools, get them from private, reputable groups with a history of safe, undetected tools. It costs money, but it’s worth it for peace of mind.

5. Keep Your PC in Top Shape

A clean and well-maintained PC runs better and reduces accidental flags from software issues.

  • Clear Caches and Temp Files: Regularly use Windows Disk Cleanup and tools like RevoUninstaller to completely remove software traces.
  • Always Update Drivers: Get GPU drivers straight from NVIDIA or AMD’s official sites.
  • Run Malware Scans: Use solid antivirus or Windows Defender to catch anything sneaky running in the background.

By combining Sync Spoofer’s deep hardware masking with smart gaming habits, you build a strong, layered defense against future bans.
