node-machine-uid
node-machine-uid is a Node.js library for generating machine-unique identifiers. This library is a fork of the popular node-machine-id library, with modifications to fix an issue on Windows where reading the registry is disabled due to access rights. node-machine-uid uses the registry-js library to get the machine ID on Windows, which does not require the use of reg.exe.
Cross-platform unique machine (desktop) id discovery
Use cases
- Software restrictions
- Installation tracking
Features
- Hardware independent
- Unique within the OS installation
- No elevated rights required
- No external dependencies and does not require any native bindings
- Cross-platform (OSx, Win, Linux)
Installation

bashCopy code
$ npm install node-machine-uid
Usage
To use node-machine-uid:
1import machineId from "node-machine-uid" 2 3const id = machineId() 4 5console.log(id)

On Windows, node-machine-uid uses registry-js to get the machine ID, which does not require the use of reg.exe. Instead, it generates a unique ID based on the computer name and the processor architecture.
