Enabling Windows GodMode

Microsoft Windows has a hidden feature called GodMode that allows you to view and adjust all settings within Windows. Enabling  this feature will conveniently put hundreds of settings from all around the operating system all in one place.

By creating a new folder in Windows and renaming it with a certain text string at the end, users are able to have a single place to do everything from changing the look of the mouse pointer to making a new hard-drive partition.

Warning: The feature appears to work on both the 32 and 64 bit versions of Windows 10, Windows 8, Windows 7. Vista 32-bit and Windows Server 2008 32-bit should also work. However, it is known to crash 64-bit versions of Vista and you may need to boot in safe mode or to the command line to delete the folder.

To create a shortcut to the GodMode in Windows 10, 8, 7. and Vista follow the steps below:

1- Ccreate a new folder on your desktop, or anywhere you'd like
2- Name it:  GodMode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}
3- Once the above steps have been completed a new shortcut entitled GodMode will be visible.

Double click it to show the GodMode window, it contains 276 items, representing virtually every configurable option in Windows.
