Remarks
The identifier returned by this method is specific to a user on the current device and allows for correlation of usage across different applications running on the same device for a particular user. Apps that are not multi-user-aware should only pass null into this method, which gets the current user's ID.
Use of this method is restricted by the userSystemId capability, which is a restricted capability requiring Microsoft approval. Please note that most callers should instead use the Windows.System.Profile.SystemIdentification.GetSystemIdForPublisher method instead as it is more appropriate for the large majority of use cases and does not require a restricted capability. If you do not need to obtain an ID that is shared across apps built by different publishers, you should not use this method.
