Access All Windows 7 Tasks with God Mode

Recently news of what some still consider an easter-egg within Windows 7 was shared via the social networks. The news spread fast due to the unique name, “God Mode”. While a much better name could have been chosen God Mode is actually a useful feature.

God Mode isn’t really an Easter-egg but will create what you might consider as a Super Control Panel.

Creating God Mode is simple. Just right-click on your Desktop or any folder and select New –> Folder from the menu.

Just name this folder by using copy and paste.

GodMode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}

The results will be
godmode1

The truth is you don’t have to call it God Mode. Any text in front of the CLSID numbers will work. NOTE: Some report this may not be supported by x64 bit Windows. See comments.


You could also copy and paste the following.
BillP’s Super Control Panel.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}

When you click on the new icon Windows Explorer will open. The right side will include a huge number of Windows 7 configuration and management utilities. Technically this is the Windows 7 “All Tasks” list, a useful tool.
