God Mode in Windows 7

By on January 3, 2010 in How To

In Windows 7 there is a nice little trick  that you can enable when you give a folder a specific name followed by some random numbers. Here is how to enable god mode in Windows 7.

How to Enable God Mode in Windows 7

Really easy to do and takes just a second. Make a new folder and name it “GodMode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}”, without the quotes.

The regular folder icon will now change and bam you know have GodMode:

God Mode in Windows 7 -2

Update: You can name the folder anything you want:

Example:

“Control Panel.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}”, without the quotes produces the same thing.

Thank you Jaress Loo for the  info.

    This is cool! You don’t even have to name it “GodMode”. You can name it whatever you want! I just named mine “Control Panel.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}” and it worked as well!
