    [Windows 7] Secret Features!

    NOTE: This only works in windows 7.

    These are basically undocumented developer features included in Windows.

    TRYING THIS WITH WRONG OS MAY RESULT A COMPUTER CRASH

    Step 1: Create a folder.
    Step 2: Rename it like this (without quotes):
    "anything.code"

    Replace anything with anything you come up with
    Ex. Xel, 1337, lol

    Then you should replace Code with some of these:
    {ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C} - The original "Godmode"
    (extended control panel which I found REALLY helpful!)

    Img:


    Some other codes
    EDIT: Most of them appear to be almost normal shortcuts (my computer etc.)
    {00C6D95F-329C-409a-81D7-C46C66EA7F33}
    {0142e4d0-fb7a-11dc-ba4a-000ffe7ab428}
    {025A5937-A6BE-4686-A844-36FE4BEC8B6D}
    {05d7b0f4-2121-4eff-bf6b-ed3f69b894d9}
    {1206F5F1-0569-412C-8FEC-3204630DFB70}
    {15eae92e-f17a-4431-9f28-805e482dafd4}
    {17cd9488-1228-4b2f-88ce-4298e93e0966}
    {1D2680C9-0E2A-469d-B787-065558BC7D43}
    {1FA9085F-25A2-489B-85D4-86326EEDCD87}
    {208D2C60-3AEA-1069-A2D7-08002B30309D}
    {20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}
    {2227A280-3AEA-1069-A2DE-08002B30309D}
    {241D7C96-F8BF-4F85-B01F-E2B043341A4B}
    {4026492F-2F69-46B8-B9BF-5654FC07E423}
    {62D8ED13-C9D0-4CE8-A914-47DD628FB1B0}
    {78F3955E-3B90-4184-BD14-5397C15F1EFC}

    Step 3:
    So after renaming you should have a folder like this
    Xel.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01}
    Now just click somewhere and see how the folder's icon changes
    then open it!

    Sigh... it's not 'god mode' it's called the All Tasks Control Panel

    Replace GodMode with some other string, it'll still work.

    Just something they left in from the W7 beta.

The “All Tasks” folder has no custom view, so you just see the standard Explorer list view and little else.
    The existence of this folder and its CLSID are implementation details and should not be relied upon by anybody for any purpose.
    God Mode? Hardly.
