An LUID is a 64-bit value guaranteed to be unique only on the system on which it was generated. The uniqueness of a locally unique identifier (LUID) is guaranteed only until the system is restarted.
An LUID is not for direct manipulation. Applications are to use functions and structures to manipulate LUID values.
