Technitium MAC Address Changer v6 Released!

Happy new year everyone!

What would be a great start to new year than release of Technitium MAC Address Changer v6?! So, just go to http://www.technitium.com/tmac/index.html and get started with the latest version!

Click here for more screenshots
Version 6 is completely re-written, incorporating lot of new techniques and features. Major feature being support for Internet Protocol v6, there are lot of other improvements such as user interface, to make the software easy to use with less clicks.

With lot of feedback from people all around the world, features like Automatic Update and Update Vendor List were added.

People who used command line parameters for previous version must verify their batch programs due to slight changes in the command line options by addition of IPv6 support.

Special thanks to Pratik Patil for help with beta testing of the software.

And, as always, do keep your feedback coming. Any issue with the software that you find, just fire off an email with OS description and a screenshot of error message to support [at] technitium [dot] com.

  1. Hello,

    Happy new year!

    Just one question : how to enable the "Use 02 as first octet of MAC adress" in command line ?

    For an automatic script launched at startup to randomised your MAC adress, it can be very useful...

  2. Thanks for the comment. Its currently not available in command line, I somehow missed that feature in command line options. I will incorporate it for sure in coming days.

  4. Shreyas - Thanks for the update to a GREAT utility.

    For all those wanting a portable version for a USB device, install to one machine.
    Copy the \program files\tmac directory to your memory stick, then add the following 4 files from \windows\system32 to the TMAC directory now on your memory stick.
    COMDLG32.OCX
    MSCHRT20.OCX
    MSCOMCTL.OCX
    TABCTL32.OCX

    The application is now portable, and does not need to be installed on other computers.

    cheers....

    I will release the software later on with new version of Technitium Installer which will support portable installation. So, until then everyone will have to use the method you described.

    1. Can you email me a screenshot of the main software window to get some more details? Secondly, the tool just makes registry edits to change MAC address. The registry value is then used by windows drivers.

    1. I am unable to get this error in test runs. It would be helpful if you can send me screenshots of the main window and the error message box and tell when this error is occurring.
