Windows 7: Enable Secret Godmode

 

Have you ever wondered if there are any secret Windows 7 features? Most games have a godmode, something that will enable all cheats and features. Windows 7 too. This is going to be a brief tutorial that will allow you to enable the secret godmode in Windows 7.

This trick actually duplicates the Windows Control Panel, but it puts the 270 most useful commands from its various modules front-and-center.

Here's how to set it up:

• Create a new folder on the Windows desktop (Right-click > New > Folder).

• Rename the folder: GodMode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}

If you've done it right, the folder icon will change to that of the Control Panel.

Double-click on it to see dozens of tweak categories, each with commands for changing many aspects of Windows 7's behavior. It initially appears in the Details view - I recommend changing it to Tiles view.


Happy New Year and a great 2010.

Sounds like a really good idea, only problem is I havent played with DX in a long time and probably would end up making a load of you can guess what, but, if you know somebody who would like to make a widget I have no problem with that...

It just produces the same results as going into each control panel would.  You can write anything in place of "GodMode" and the same thing happens. http://www.edbott.com/weblog/?p=2724

Yep, This "Master Control Panel" also works in Vista, first reported on NEOWIN in 2008

This is an amazing find for someone like me who's afraid of fooling around with filenames and such, but I made the folder and followed instructions for renaming. I love how everything is grouped according into categories. This is an extremely useful find. Thanx

One annoying thing, tho... right clicking provides no option to change the icon... sticks out like a sore thumb cos it's not in keeping with my other 'themed' icons.  Oh well, I'll just pop it under a Winstep module until needed... and hope like heck I can remember where I hid it..
