How to determine a protocol's name given its GUID?

Hello all. 

Does anyone know of a simple and accessible way to determine the path of a protocol/component given its GUID?

Two ways I am aware of are:

  1. To grep​ for the GUID in the PP XMLDB but it provides a big number of protocols related to this GUID
  2. To take a look at admin portal what is being run but that's not the best approach just in case it deletes a database table or overwrites some important files, for example.

 Please share your thoughts,

Any ideas is highly appreciated.

Thank you,
