Activate “God Mode” in Windows 7.

Windows 7  is a lot less restrictive than Windows Vista. It doesn’t take a genuis to spot that. But even so, there’s a way to gain access of even more goodness in Windows 7, with the so called “God Mode” folder. What this folder does, is give you something more similar to a second Control Panel, with 270+ functions to play around with. Nothing for the average Windows user, but definetely something to look in to if you know what you’re doing.

So, how do you activate this “God Mode” you ask? It’s quite simple actually. Create a new folder anywhere on the hard drive, it doesn’t really mater. Name this drive “GodMode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}.”. Now, watch the magic happen.

Alright, I know that it’s not the “GodMode” part of the name that does the trick. In reality, you could call it “Chocolate.stringname” and it would still give you access to the same folder. It’s the string after that does everything. But God Mode sounds a lot better, no?

This trick supposedly works in Windows Vista 32-bit aswell, although I can not promise anything, as I have not tried this myself.

EDIT: I just had a friend test this in Windows Vista, and it works just fine. So yes, it’s confirmed, this will help you Vista users aswell!
