Activate GODMode in Windows 7

GODMode is actually a hidden (or, at least it used to be hidden) developer shortcut in Windows 7 that provides more direct access to features and functions of the operating system. To be clear, GodMode doesn't add functionality. But it helps administrators work more efficiently by collecting all these tweaks and controls in one place.



Create a folder on desktop and renamed it to "GodMode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}" without qoutes.



The trick appears to work on both the 32 and 64-bit versions of Windows 7. Vista 32-bit and Windows Server 2008 32-bit should also work. However, it is known to crash 64-bit versions of Vista. If you want to delete it, you may need to boot in safe mode or to the command line to delete the folder.
