2. Next, Run the command prompt and run the auto option (switch A) to create a new SID and rename the computer. It takes a few minutes for the process to complete and the computer to reboot (Figure B). When you log in to the computer again, the SID is brand new and the computer automatically renamed.

Like you clone a vm in minutes to test something, but find

And even Microsoft don't support NewSID now and you will not be able to get the download.
