That GUID would be generated at MSI build time, not at MSI install time, so it 
won't be unique for each user.

You could try something like

<?define MyGuid = "{????????-????-????-????-????????????}"?>

Subject: [WiX-users] GUID generation in WiX

Hi there,
I need to generate a GUID during the setup and put it in the registry key.
Is there a simple way to generate random GUID in Windows Installer during 
installation? Is there WiX tag to do this?

Thanks,
Stas
