UUID-GUID Generator Portable

Universally Unique Identifiers (UUID) and Globally Unique Identifiers (GUID) are 128-bit labels (text strings) that can act as a unique reference number associated to software, hardware, documents, accounts and so on. Their purpose is to allow the quick identification of information related to equipment and software with a distinctive ID.

As its name suggests, UUID-GUID Generator Portable is a simple software utility ready to help you generate both UUID and GUID identifiers. You can then use these generated strings in your personal software projects.

The application is as simple as it gets: you launch it and a user-friendly GUI greets you, displaying a field where the unique identifier is generated.   Just a few extra options are available: you can add braces in the UUID or GUID or opt to use upper-case letters exclusively. Dashes can also be included in the generated identifier.

The output can be automatically copied to the clipboard if you tick the corresponding box, but you can also copy it with the click of a button.

Last but not least, note that the application requires no installation, which is quite convenient, given its nature. It leaves no traces behind in the registry of the host system.

It is fully portable and can be used on the go and launched even directly from a removable drive. You simply have to double-click on the downloaded file and specify the location where you want UUID-GUID Generator Portable to be stored.

UUID-GUID Generator Portable is one of those simple applications that is definitely worth having around. You can use it to generate unique identifiers to use in your projects, with or without braces and dashes. The generated string can be easily copied to the clipboard and used further.
