UniqueEndpointId

G2MSetup10.17.19796_IT.msi creates an UniqueEndpointId in the Registry by each install.

What is it used for?

Should it be unique on every device?

 

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\LogMeInInc]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\LogMeInInc\COLVideo]
"UniqueEndpointId"="91539AC1-AB8A-4F5C-A380-54CDC0FF84EA"

    Hello GlennD ,

     

    Thanks for this answer.

    Is it just some GUID?

    How is it generated by the (MSI) installer?

    Can it be changed into a random GUID?

     

    Thanks in advance

    Hi rkjnssn 

     

    Yes, the ID should be unique to each device. My understanding is that it is used for reporting and possibly licensing purposes.
