How to get the GUID of different HDD partitions?

I was trying with BCDEDIT and DISKPART but that tools give me an ID that is not the GUID Note: I am testing in Windows 7

Check out the output of the mountvol command:

VolumeName: Specifies the volume name that is the target of the mount point. The volume name is of the form \?\Volume{GUID}\, where {GUID} is a globally unique identifier (GUID) (for example,
\?\Volume{2eca078d-5cbc-43d3-aff8-7e8511f60d0e}).

mountvol didn't help my in a similar case as I had two different disks containing two Windows installations (one broken), so you could not say, which is which. For that, after googling for a long time running diskpart was my rescue:

list disk sel disk 1 #That is the "Datenträger 0", the 1TB HDD list part sel part 1 detail disk detail part 

giving me

Partition 1 Typ : <HERE IS YOUR ANSWER ID> Versteckt : Ja #Hidden Erforderlich: Ja #Necessary Attribut : 0X8000000000000001 Offset in Byte: 1048576 Volume ### Bst Bezeichnung DS Typ Größe Status Info ---------- --- ----------- ----- ---------- ------- --------- -------- * Volume 5 Wiederherst NTFS Partition 529 MB Fehlerfre Versteck 

For better visualization two screenshots of the two used tools. It has to be found out, wich of 1XXX7 and 6XXXb correspond to "Datenträger 0">EFI and "Datenträger 1">EFI respectively as well es which of 1XXXf and 5XXXf correspond to "Datenträger 0">recovery and "Datenträger 1">recovery (recovery = "Wiederherstellung").
