Generate global unique identifiers (GUIDs) to integrate into your software projects by using this simple and portable application #Create GUID #Unique identifier #Generate GUID #Generator #GUID #Generate
Dedicated to programmers, GUID Generator is a straightforward piece of software you can use to create random global unique identifiers (GUIDs) on the spot. You just have to launch the program to view a GUI and copy it to the clipboard.
This tool is dedicated to software developers who need to implement GUIDs into their projects. For example, Windows uses these one-of-a-kind alphanumerical keys to identify interfaces and classes of COM objects.
In video games, it can be used for identifying various items in an open world. Meanwhile, database developers can assign GUIDs as primary keys.
There is no installation involved, as the program is packed in just one executable file. You can save this .exe anywhere on your PC and even keep it stored in your toolkit of portable software to be ready to obtain GUIDs anytime you need them.
Although GUID Generator hasn't been updated for a while, it worked smoothly on Windows 10 in our tests, without producing any errors. Double-clicking the .exe launches a tiny window which can be enlarged to get a good view of the GUID.
This sequence of numbers and lowercase letters gets randomized every time you fire up the application or double-click anywhere in its window.
While there are no buttons visible for copying the GUI to the clipboard, you can select it with your mouse and right-click to open the context menu and copy it (or press Ctrl+V).
This represents the tool's entire functionality. There is no button you can click to generate a new GUI, and it may not be obvious to some users that they can do this by just double-clicking, instead of opening closing and reopening GUID Generator.
Perhaps if would've helped software developers if the utility were able to create a list with multiple GUI lines or to give you the possibility to specify how many GUIDs you need, in order to generate all at once and copy or save them to file.
Nevertheless, considering its small size and general straightforwardness, GUID Generator serves its purpose quite well, without extra features or distracting elements.
