Where can I find my NIC’s GUID (for use with ForceBindIP)?
I’m trying to create a context-menu item to run ForceBindIP. I saw a similar question that discusses doing this, but I don’t know how to find the GUID for my network interface.
Where can I find it?
You find the GUIDs of your NICs manually through the registry, or you can find them a little more easily from the command-prompt:
- Run the Service snap-in (
services.msc
) - Start the
Wired AutoConfig
andWLAN AutoConfig
services if they are not already running - Open a command-prompt
-
Run the following command:
netsh lan show interfaces netsh wlan show interfaces
The first command will list wired network adapters, along with their GUIDs, and the second will display wireless NICs.
