The invention discloses a vendor-specific peripheral device class identifiers. A peripheral device class identifier is generated for a class of peripheral devices, and is used to identify a setup record that indicates how to install or otherwise set up the class of peripheral devices on a computing device. The peripheral device class identifier is a combination of three components: a vendor identifier, a namespace identifier, and a namespace entry identifier. The vendor identifier is an identifier of the vendor of the class of peripheral devices. The namespace identifier is an identifier of different collections or groups of types of peripheral devices or types of functionality of peripheral devices. The namespace entry identifier is an identifier of a particular type of peripheral device (or particular functionality) of the different collections or groups of types of peripheral devices (or types of functionality of peripheral devices). 外围设备类标识符针对外围设备的类被生成，并且被用于识别指示如何在计算设备上安装或者否则设置外围设备的所述类的设置记录。所述外围设备类标识符是三个成
