ARE YOU FAMILIAR WITH "GOD MODE" FOR WINDOWS 10 ?

Sorry, it has been a while since my last post but do to unexpected circumstances, I have not been able do to much in the last few months.

Have you readers never heard of God Mode setting for Windows 10 ? (It was also available in Windows 8 and 8.1 but was never very much advertised or known, except by the "experts"...).

Think of God Mode as a tool which allows access to just about all the settings available in your Windows OS, available all in one place, with a single click on a desktop icon !

It covers hundreds of commands for settings, tools, internet options, backups, customization options and on and on. All these are sorted out into categories, so that it makes it very easy to find what you want.

Here is how to create the "God Mode" icon on your desktop. (You  can call it whatever you want such as "Easy Find" or whatever):

Use a system account that has administrative privileges:
-Right-click anywhere on the Windows 10 desktop. Select "New/Folder"
-Name the folder: GodMode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}

-You can copy and paste the above to make it easier.

-If you want you can replace "GodMode" with any other name you select..

-Click the folder and a new icon named GodMode (or whatever you called it).

-Presto ! A folder opens where  you can see all kinds of  settings to select, including Devices and Printers, Credential Manager, Indexing, etc. It makes it very easy to find any setting or tool without having to go through lengthy steps to get there.

Enjoy it
