Become a (Win7) God – A shortcut to Windows 7’s secret features


04 Jan  

 

If you have upgraded your system to Windows 7, here is something you could do – Become a Windows 7 God!

Well, we have seen that M$ is very intelligent when it comes to coining new terms (and even new strategies – we have seen their ‘clean-room’ strategy before). This new term is yet another misnomer to lure the gullible.

All it does is that, by enabling this you are creating a shortcut to some of the ‘secret features’ of the new operating system from Windows

Here is what you should do to enable this feature:

1. Right click on the desktop and select new

2. Now you create a new folder (as you do normally)

3. (Here goes the trick) Rename the folder as  GodMode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}

4. Then, double click on the folder we just created.

 

Here is the set of network options you get once you select ‘Networking’ from the ‘God Window’

Fact: When I tried this in my 32 bit Vista, it worked :)

 

Note: One of my friends tried this in his Windows Vista 64 bit  system, it crashed! So try this in your Vista , at your risk
