Windows 7 (hereafter referred to as Win7) has been published in the "God Mode" message, which has been widely publicized in major websites and forums, attracting a lot of netizens' attention. What is the pattern of this "God mode"? What are the magical things? Let's take a look at it!
<;God mode” true face —— full-featured control panel< Br> Readers who play games often must be familiar with the word “God mode”. If the protagonist of the game you are operating is on the verge of death, once the "God mode" is turned on, the protagonist can not only resurrect in situ, full of blood and blue, but even stealth, wear a wall, and a glimpse of N feet, just like &ldquo ;God” possessed the same. So the players call this special mode that is turned on in the game through cheats or modifiers, "God mode". So as an operating system, what does Win7's "God mode" look like?
Click the right mouse button on the desktop or other disk folder and select “New →Folder”, folder Named "God mode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E- 825C-99712043E01C}” Enter, the newly created folder becomes an icon of the control panel named "God Mode". Double-click to open, and enter the Win7 "God mode" (as shown in Figure 1).
Enter Win7's "God Mode", you can see that there are 45 major items in the "God Mode", each of which contains several sub-items, at first glance It's a bit complicated, but there is nothing mysterious about it. These items in the "God mode" actually contain almost all the setting items in the Win7 control panel, and each setting item is subdivided into several sub-items according to the user's purpose of use and listed. For example, “Personalization” includes “Open or Close Screen Saver”, “Change Translucent Window Color”, “Show or hide common icons on the desktop” and other items. The project can be found in the "Personalization" project of the Control Panel, but it is not as intuitive as the "God Mode". So, in the final analysis, the true face of Win7<God mode" is a more intuitive full-featured control panel.
<quo;God mode” uses and meanings—— fast, convenient, user-friendly
I saw the true face of "God mode", some people may feel this way, even feel it called "<quo God mode is a bit exaggerated. We won't discuss its name here, but this full-featured control panel does have many uses, and it can make Win7 more user-friendly and easier to operate.
<;God mode" is like a demand-oriented navigation system that can bring great convenience to users who are not familiar with Win7 settings. For example, a user who uses Win7 for the first time needs to set the “.MP3” file to double-click and open it with thousands of listeners, but can't find the setting in the folder option as in XP, the user must be at this time. Very annoyed, using the search to know that the original setting has been moved to the "default program"; and if the user does not find the relevant answer, then it may be difficult to quickly grasp the use of Win7, resulting in "not convinced & rdquo; phenomenon.
But if the user enters "God mode", it is easy to find, the name of this setting is "Always use the program developed to open this file type", the user can easily find it, its role is also clear at a glance.
Similar settings include “Internet Options""Change the way web pages are displayed in tabs>,“Prompt whether RSS feeds are available on the website>;“Programs and Features&rdquo ; in the "View installed updates", "Uninstaller" "; “ & ldquo; & ldquo; in the device and printer & rdquo; scan documents or pictures & rdquo;; & ldquo; mouse & rdquo; in the "custom mouse" Button & rdquo; etc. (as shown in Figure 2).

In addition, "God mode" allows users to access some deep system settings more quickly. For example, now everyone generally sets the system temporary file directory to a non-system disk to optimize the system. The normal steps are right click on the "computer", then select “properties & rdquo;, then select “ advanced system settings & rdquo;, then click “ advanced & rdquo; … … its cumbersomeness can be seen. But by "God mode", just double-click "Edit system environment variable" to complete in one step, saving a lot of steps. And all the items in the "God mode" support the creation of shortcuts, we can create frequently used settings, such as device manager, service manager, etc. on the desktop, call at any time.
<;God Mode”'s Alternative Application——Folder"Encryption"
After fully understanding the use of "God Mode", you will no longer be on "God Mode" & rdquo; I feel mysterious. However, some readers are curious about how the “God Mode” was created. Why do you enter such a character to turn on the "God mode"? If you change the folder that already contains the file to the name of "God mode", what effect will the file inside be lost? Can it be lost? Access? If using this method to hide folders is not safe? In order to answer these questions, the author made a small experiment.
First, the author named a folder containing a .txt file, a .jpg image, and an .exe program as "God mode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E- 825C-99712043E01C}”. At this time, double-click the folder to open the folder of "God mode" and the above files cannot be displayed. But looking at the folder properties at this point, you can still see the size of the folder and the number of files it contains (as shown in Figure 3).
View folder properties
Next I will rename this folder, but no matter how to change this time, double-click this folder is always into the "God mode", can not see the inside The file is gone. Then I tried to enter the address of this folder directly in the address bar, such as “C:God mode" and “C:God mode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C- 99712043E01C}”, can only be opened “God mode”. And in the "Run", enter "ldquo; C: God mode" will be given an error, enter "ld: C: God mode. {ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}” is also open "God mode". If you enter the file name in the “God Mode” folder in the Run and Address bar, that is, the full path of the file, such as “C:God Mode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C} Network Tools. Exe” also can not run the files in it (as shown in Figure 4).
. But what do we do when we want to visit? In fact, the method of "decryption" is very simple, but it is hard to think of —— use WinRAR!
to open the WinRAR resource manager and navigate to the "God mode" ” The location of the folder, you can see the extension of the "God mode" folder that is not displayed in Windows Explorer, but it is displayed in WinRAR (as shown in Figure 5). Right click on the button to select “rename”, and then delete the extension after the folder "God mode", this folder will be restored to a normal folder, and the files inside can be used normally. It is. Similarly, third-party software such as ACDSee and its own resource manager can also be used to "decrypt". So this "encryption" method is simple, but the security is really average.
WinRAR shows the file extension
We can see from the above experiment that the so-called "God mode" is essentially using a special function as a folder extension, thus calling Win7 already The function that exists. The control panel in "God mode" is actually a shortcut reserved for developers so that developers can quickly find the corresponding system functions.
There are a lot of similar extension functions. Interested readers may wish to try the folder naming method in Figure 6.

I read this article, I believe that you have a thorough understanding of Win7's "God mode"? In fact, "God mode" is so concerned, not only because Its "hidden" attribute, as well as some of the user application experience it brings. In fact, as mentioned in the article, there are many useful functions in Win7 like “God Mode”, which are “hidden”, but they are not available to ordinary users.
