The CON folder mystery in Microsoft Windows !!!


For those who don't know what it is, here it is :
Create a new folder in ur system name it CON (caps or small)....It doesn't create..isn't it ???
The reason is because keywords cannot be named as file names .... And CON is a keyword in DOS.

And now the screenshot shows my desktop where I've created the CON folder. (It's the whole desktop to prove there are no error messages popping up and the time at the right bottom has my name on it (copyrighted :P)

The (dirty) secret is that I've renamed it with a space which is done using the invisible folder trick (previous post)


Just rename it as CON and with the alt button down press 0160 on ur numpad !!! As cool as that !!!
