No, Windows and Microsoft have not gone all divine all of a sudden – but the name does seem like they have. There is nothing spiritual about GodMode other than its name, but understanding what it can do would certainly make your Windows 7 experience worthwhile.
The discovery of the erstwhile hidden feature has been causing a buzz on the Web. What it does is provide the user with access to the operating system’s control panels from a single folder. Entry into “GodMode” is possible by creating a new folder and renaming it: GodMode. {ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}. Instead of the all-too familiar yellow folder icon, one will see that the icon will change and now resemble a control panel and will have within it quite a number of control options. It is at this point when being “God”, at least within the confines of Windows, presumably kicks in.
From here, one can do practically everything – from changing the look of the mouse pointer to making a new hard-drive partition.
