GODMODES IN WINDOW 7

Its very intresting to and fun to tweak and change the appearence of the operating system to match one taste.
It was very popular in win xp, there were lots of tweaks to and lots of us used to customise xp as we wanted although not totally... but hey we did a lot don't we!

And now since we have moved to window 7. well a lot of we did.
A hidden "Godmode" in window 7 recently discovered by bloggers have excited a lot of window enthusiasts.
By creating  new folder in window7 and renaming it with  certain text string at the end, user are able to have a single place to do everything from changing the look of the mouse pointer to making a new hard-drive partition.


To enter "Godmode" create a new folder and name it anything you want then period then one of the text string.e.g.

"DigitalDream.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}"
(use everything inside the quotes but not the quotes)
It works very well in window 7, although some are warning that although it works fine in 32-bit versions of Vista, it can cause 64-bit versions of that operating system to crash.

Such undocumented settings were also in previous version of windows .. well all must be aware..
And it was also present in vista and 7. 
Its was names by the bloggers as "Godmode" 
The so-called GodMode settings folder uncovered by bloggers is just one of many undocumented developer features included in Windows.
several similar undocumented features provide direct access to all kinds of settings, from choosing a location to managing power settings to identifying biometric sensors.

Here are a list of strings :

"DigitalDream.{00C6D95F-329C-409a-81D7-C46C66EA7F33}" 
(use them like this)


{00C6D95F-329C-409a-81D7-C46C66EA7F33}
{0142e4d0-fb7a-11dc-ba4a-000ffe7ab428}
{025A5937-A6BE-4686-A844-36FE4BEC8B6D}
{05d7b0f4-2121-4eff-bf6b-ed3f69b894d9}
{1206F5F1-0569-412C-8FEC-3204630DFB70}
{15eae92e-f17a-4431-9f28-805e482dafd4}
{17cd9488-1228-4b2f-88ce-4298e93e0966}
{1D2680C9-0E2A-469d-B787-065558BC7D43}
{1FA9085F-25A2-489B-85D4-86326EEDCD87}
{208D2C60-3AEA-1069-A2D7-08002B30309D}
{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}
{2227A280-3AEA-1069-A2DE-08002B30309D}
{241D7C96-F8BF-4F85-B01F-E2B043341A4B}
{4026492F-2F69-46B8-B9BF-5654FC07E423}
{62D8ED13-C9D0-4CE8-A914-47DD628FB1B0}
{78F3955E-3B90-4184-BD14-5397C15F1EFC}

And, as a reminder, to create the Godmode folder itself, use this string:
{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}
