217
GUID is an acronym for Globally Unique Identifier . It is often also referred to Universally Unique Identifiers or UUIDs . There is no genuine difference between the two terms. Technically, these are 128-bit immutable, unique, cryptographically-strong, random numbers.
To Generate a GUID in Windows 10 with PowerShell, Type or copy-paste the following command: [guid]::NewGuid() . This will produce a new GUID in the output. Alternatively, you can run the command '{'+[guid]::NewGuid(). ToString()+'}' to get a new GUID in the traditional Registry format.
Static factory to retrieve a type 4 (pseudo randomly generated) UUID. The UUID is generated using a cryptographically strong pseudo random number generator.
Version 3: MD5 hash & namespace This GUID is generated by taking a namespace (e.g. a fully qualified domain name) and a given name name, convertying to bytes, concatenating, and hashing. Once specifying the special bits like version and variant the resulting bytes are then converted into its hexadecimal form.
