Access all system management tools in Windows effortlessly

In Windows, there is a hidden function which allows all system management tools (usually spread through control panel, computer management, administration tools etc) to be conveniently accessed from a single place. It is called as GodMode.

GodMode is not a plugin, or a software. To activate a GodMode shortcut, you just need to create a new folder and rename it to a specific file name with a code.

Create a new folder anywhere on your Desktop and rename the folder from 'New Folder' to this exact code:

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

You can also rename the folder to anything you want by replacing 'GodMode' by the desired name in the above code.

Just hit enter and your GodMode shortcut will get created. The folder icon will resemble like that of Control Panel.

You can now access all the functions and tools from one place which are originally intended to be available only to Microsoft developers.

An expanded list of GodMode is shown below in the screenshot. This code works for all Windows OS including XP, Win 7 as well as Win 8.  
PS: In case you wish to know how I printed this whole list in the scrolling window, read this.
