10/26/2015

This tool creates new globally unique identifiers (GUIDs), also known as universally unique identifiers (UUIDs), which are unique, 128-bit values.

Syntax

guidgen

Remarks

Guidgen.exe is an executable that is part of Microsoft Visual Studio 2013 and Microsoft Visual Studio 2015, and is located in C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\Tools. You can dynamically generate a GUID on a device that supports COM. To do so, call CoCreateGuid.

When this command is run from a command prompt build window, the Create GUID dialog box appears. You can choose from the four available formats:

  • IMPLEMENT_OLECREATE(...)
  • DEFINE_GUID(...)
  • static const struct GUID = (...)
  • Registry Format

When you select the radio button corresponding to that format, the Create GUID dialog box displays an example of each format.
