Guid.NewGuid() vs. new Guid()

Question

What\'s the difference between Guid.NewGuid() and new Guid()?

Which one is preferred?

Answer 1

new Guid() makes an "empty" all-0 guid (00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000 is not very useful).

Guid.NewGuid() makes an actual guid with a unique value, what you probably want.
