GetSID is a tool designed to scan the Windows registry for SID (System Identifier) data. If the SID is found, GetSID returns this identifier, which serves as a unique computer ID. This can be particularly useful when you need to restrict or customize features on a specific computer and require a reliable ID for identification.

GetSID also functions as a simple demonstration of accessing the Windows registry. Its functionality aligns with Microsoft’s PsGetSid utility, providing similar features in a MATLAB-compatible form.

Requirements:

- Microsoft Windows operating system

- MATLAB version 6 or higher
