Written by Don’t get too excited… it’s not as awesome as God Mode in DOOM, but it is a fun little easier egg for uber-geeks hiding under the hood of Windows 7. Windows 7 God Mode allows you to tinker with all of the the operating system’s control panel items from within a single folder.
Here’s how you do it:
- Create a new folder (I put it on my Desktop, but it can be anywhere you like).
- Rename the folder to:
GodMode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}
The folder’s icon will then change a blue control panel. Open it up, and check out all the stuff you can control.
Don’t let the power go to your head. 
Rumor has it that this also works in Windows Vista, but I just upgraded my last copy of Vista, so someone else is going to have to test it out and confirm it in the comments.

I can confirm that it Works on Vista. Pretty cool. I think I will try it on 2008 R2 Server as well.
