How to Enable Windows 7 GodMode

I found this tip at www.sitepoint.com

Here’s a neat Windows 7 trick that’s been doing the rounds on the Internet. It enables “GodMode,� a term devised by the Microsoft development team, which provides a single place to access all Windows settings without needing to browse options and folders in the Control Panel.

To use it:
1.        Create a new folder.
2.        Rename the folder to

GodMode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}

(note that you can change the “GodMode� text, but the following period and code number are essential).
3.        The folder icon will change — double click it to show the GodMode window:
