Make FORBIDDEN Folders

Can you create a folder named “con”, “prn”, “nul” “com1″ “com2″ “lpt1″ etc. in windows ?

The answer is NO and YES!

NO because when create a new folder and try to rename it to any one of the above specified names, you know what happens! In Windows XP the folder name automatically changes back to “New Folder” no matter you try any number of times. Where as in Windows Vista/7 when you try to rename the file you get an error message “The specified device name is invalid”.

What is the reason for this? Simple, these names represent the internal devices and hence we cannot create folders with the above names.

 

YES because it is still possible to create these folders using the command prompt. Here’s the instructions to create it.

 

1. Go to command prompt

2. Type in prompt (FOR EG. TO CREATE CON FOLDER IN E: DRIVE)

C:\>md \\.\e:\con

NOTE: “con” can be replaced by any other names such as “prn”, “nul” “com1″ “com2″ “lpt1″ etc.

 

3. To delete the folder use the following command

C:\>rd \\.\e:\con

NOTE: The folder can only be deleted from the command prompt.You cannot remove it by right-click delete

Advance Hiding feature...

Windows comes with a very good feature which allows you to hide stuff... But the problem with this is that everybody with a "show hidden files and folders" checked, can view your files... Today i'll tell you another way of hiding your stuff.

1. goto the folder where the file is located.

2. Right click anywhere on the screen

3. select New==> New text document..

4. Type the following code

************

attrib +h +s "File name"

pause

************

5. save this file as anything .bat

6. To unhide the file just replace the Plus(+) with a minus(-)

*************

attrib -h -s "File name"

pause

Picasa Review

Tired of the old worn out and the not-so-classy 'Windows picture and fax viewer'? I was, and after a bit of searching around i found Picasa. The name obviuosly a reference to one of the all time greatest artists.

The software, is in one word,BRILLIANT! Faster, sleeker, sexier then the default Microsoft picture viewer. It gives you a host of reasons why you should, after reading this blog =P, download and install it immediately!

The user interface is extremely friendly. You'll grow comfortable with it very soon. The sleek and stylish look impresses everyone.

The software is fairly light and doesn't take up any noticeable amount of your machines resources. This is even more amazing when you keep in mind the rest of the amazing features it has. Not only does it just act as a picture viewer, it's a whole library! Organizing your photos was never this easy. Again, the fact that its interface seems very comfy is very handy. You'll never be confused by it. Sorting, naming, arranging or editing your photos is now literally just a click away. It even has a face recognizing feature, which by the way is VERY addictive and fun.

It also offers you a host of very handy options to edit your pictures.The finish of the editing is brilliant. It also offers a pretty cool collage creating option. Amazing when you want to put together a few memorably pictures using it.

All in all, it is a must have for any PC. The first thing i do after buying a new PC, or updating my windows version is to download and install it.

If you don't have it yet, GET IT!


Here's a link to download it.
