I'm temped to use a phrase that I don't use at all.(Fighting noises[Get back OMG, you too WTF] Box slamming shut).
I'm going to have fun with this though, I'm on Win 7 now and I was quite surprised.
This is a slight problem though, if a well written program could create said folder,
it could be a worry.
(Don't worry, I don't know a crumb of C++ or C).

It's incredibly easy to create this folder programmatically (it's literally a one-liner [outside of the main method and any using directives]).

The good news is, you can't really do much with it unless you are on the admin account or have the admin password. This is just a shell folder that you are accessing, which provides "all tasks" in an easy to access place. You could literally rename this anything (Intrigue_Rocks.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}), but "GodMode" sounds cooler. =)
 
Hey!!!! This has been out forever...I can't believe that none of you have heard of this. LOL :) Thanks for sharing it though. It's clear that most of the population doesn't know about this.

Now with that being said....Here is warning to all of you.
[size=+2] DON'T DO THIS "GOD MODE" IF YOU HAVE A 64 BIT MACHINE. it can cause 64-bit versions of Windows to crash.
[/SIZE]

Now that I have made that clear...for those of you who use a 32 bit machine, have fun using "God Mode" LOL :)

I dual (well tri) boot too. I mainly use a ubuntu based security auditing distro... ;) I'm sure you can guess but I won't mention it since some might have a negative association of it. Used by a lot of script kiddies.
Hopped around to most major distros & tried to avoid ubuntu actually but wound up here anyway. :rolleyes:
Haven't booted into windows for a long time but its still there if its ever needed.

Great avatar btw.
 
I've seen nothing to indicate problems on 64-bit machines, and can't think of a reason that there would be any. In general, folks don't understand the differences in processor architecture or the OS changes to support them. I think it's safe to take the "don't use on x86-64" comment with a grain of salt, unless some supporting material from a tech site can be provided.

I did provide a link to a tech site. It's clear that you didn't read my other post.
Understanding Windows 7's 'GodMode' | Beyond Binary - CNET News

Here is a quote strait from the article.
"The trick is also said to work in Windows Vista, 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."

Maybe this only causes Vista 64 to crash and not Windows 7 64bit. Maybe it's only on older non patched versions....I don't know. I just thought that it would be wise to spread the warning along since a highly reputable tech site says that it can crash 64bit systems.
