Win7 God Mode.

There's a quick hack doing the rounds for Win7 that may be of interest to some.

Create a new folder on the desktop and name it GodMode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}

When you open the folder, it gives you access to all user settings for everything.

Just cut and paste it straight off Robins post. No mistakes then.

And for the other Godessess on the forum, you can rename it afterwards.

While a useful shortcut. The features it provides is nothing that can't already be done in control panel.

I like that link.


I agree that just pressing the windows key and start typing what you want, is much easier than browsing a long list of links.

You're missing the whole point Mike.
It's says "God Mode"
Sounds soooo cool.
