Win7 "GodMode"

[qubit]

It works fine on my W7 64-bit. Nice Easter egg find.

Nice tip, very handy. Made the folder in C: and created shortcut to desktop, very handy to have all those obscure controls in one place.

To those who had problems, the clue is in the thread title Win7 God mode!

Can you not just adore those who complain and you can tell they have not read the thread.

Back on topic...

Have had on Windows 7 64 bit for a while; no anomalies have presented themselves.
Cute and nice to have these tasks in one place.

Not majioc, or god mode. Just a GUI of all the registry tweaks brought to life in one place. Unfortunately using some advanced feature snwith Windows and especially X64 it can cause some problems. I had the unfortunate oppertunity to restore a registry to my system already by naming myself higher than God in Win 7 to edit my registry paths deep in the system areas.

Worked well on XP, Vista complained but it worked, and now we can do nothign but tocreate batch scripts to run during IPL.

One thing I learned about Windows 7, Home Premium and lower still dont have the GPedit Tool, I even tried finding a solution, aka even Vista, and it doesnt work as it pops a message that this build is not authorized for it?

GodMode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C} can have any name in front of the period.
I named mine DRDNAMODE.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}

I knew about this trick before. Its just a condensed Control Panel.

Wow this god mode mother shit, has screwed my explorer.exe How can i fix this, before a next reboot, i think ive fixed it sense im posting, but i created the folder, on the desktop(C:\ drive) on Windows vista 64-bit ultimate, its really screwed up my system.

I bet if i go in the drive i will potentually screw this up ATM.

Any fix on reversing this shit, because i was pist when i shiped windows 7 out today. LOL.

 

[exodusprime1337]

nifty little gimmick, however there are a crapload of apps you can launch from this folder, how cool.

 

[pantherx12]

Works fine for me, can explore where ever I put it as well, even put it in a bunch of folders at once to check.

 

[El_Mayo]

pretty useless, unless i'm not doing it right
looks liek everything from control panel in one place

Hey dude I didnt read thru the thread either and tried it with Vista 64 ultimate, I couldnt access C: anymore

just go to cmd prompt type RmDir “Godmode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}”
