Sa labas ng device driver programming, ang pag-alam sa Globally Unique Identifier (GUID) para sa klase ng hardware device ay kapaki-pakinabang kapag sinusubaybayan ang impormasyon ng driver sa Windows Registry.
Halimbawa, kasama sa solusyon sa ilang error code ng Device Manager ang pag-alis ng mga partikular na halaga ng registry mula sa mga registry key na pinangalanan sa GUID ng isang device.
Hindi ito kumpletong listahan, at hindi lahat ng bersyon ng Windows ay gumagamit ng bawat GUID sa talahanayang ito. Mayroong ilang hindi gaanong karaniwang mga klase ng device na tinukoy ng system. Gayundin, ang mga device ay maaaring bumuo ng mga natatanging klase batay sa mga variable, na ginagawang imposibleng ilista ang lahat ng ito.
