First of all let us know

what is god mode in windows 7

“Godmode”, is a term devised by the Microsoft development team, which provides a single place to access all the Windows settings without having to navigate through the options and folders in the control panel.

How to Enable Windows 7 GodMode

  1. Create a new folder.
  2. Rename the folder toGodMode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}God mode folder(note that you can change the “GodMode” text, but the following period and code number are essential).
  3. The folder icon will change — double click it to show the GodMode window:

The window shows the 50 sections with quick links to configuration options. Strictly speaking, there is a way of God, and that all options are available elsewhere. It’s more like an “all tasks” list – but you may find it easier to stumble across numerous Windows screens and panels.

 

The trick appears to work on both the 32 and 64-bit versions of 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.
