New GUID to Clipboard (GUID📋)

Copies a new GUID (Globally Unique Identifier) to the clipboard.

Notes

  • GUIDs are normally used by programmers in software to name things uniquely without having to worry about anything else having the same name. I wasn't sure I should give this feature a prominent position, but I decided that the ability to quickly create an almost 100% guaranteed unique identifier could come in useful for pretty much anyone.
  • Alternatively, you could just flop your hands onto the keyboard a few times to make an ID that is probably unique...

Configurables

  • New Guid to Keyboard (Default: False)
      When using the New Guid To Clipboard action, there is a risk that you will accidentally paste the same GUID twice without realizing it. When this option is enabled, it changes the behavior of the feature to simply type the new GUID instead, without storing it in the clipboard.
