Windows 7 List of God Modes

Windows 7 comes with a lot of secret shortcuts for developers. Note, these shortcuts are not intended for normal users or for other operating systems other than Windows 7. There have been reports of instant and endless BSOD on Vista 64.

Try these at your your own risk. I take no responsibility to what happens when you try these on your computer ;)


Step 1: Right click.

Step 2: Click create folder.

Step 3: Name or Rename the new folder to "GodMode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}".

Step 4: the folder's appearance changes to look like the control panel.

Step 5: Open the folder and to reveal the list of godly shortcuts.


As of Windows Vista, each Control Panel item is given a canonical name for use in programmatically launching that item. This topic lists each Control Panel item, its canonical name, and its GUID.

Windows 7 Control Panel Canonical Names

The following canonical names are defined for Control Panel items in Windows 7. All names are also valid on Windows Vista unless specified otherwise. Not all Control Panel items are available on all varieties of Windows and some Control Panel items might appear only when appropriate hardware is detected. These canonical names do not change for different languages. They are always in English, even if the system's language is non-English.

you can make more GodeMode Folders using the "Control Panel Item.{GUID}" or any "name.{GUID}"
