"Create a new folder on the desktop (or anywhere else) and rename it like below:

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

It works for Windows 8, Windows 8.1 and Windows 10 as well...

It's a folder packed with shortcuts to
just about every settings change and
administrative function in Windows 7.
Everything you'll find in the Action
Center, Backup and Restore, Autorun,
Desktop Gadgets, Devices and Printers
-- it's all there. All dumped in one central location for easy access.

Note: You can use any name you want before the dot."

"Besides the commonly known 'god mode' there are other similar solutions. The approach is the same as with GodMode: create a folder on the desktop and rename it to Name.{GUID}. Where Name can be anything you wish. A list of GUIDs is below:

GodMode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}
{00C6D95F-329C-409a-81D7-C46C66EA7F33}

"Enter the next GodMode maker (this one lets you choose from over 50 ""Deities"" :)

Be A Windows God With Go GodMode

As you probably know, GodMode provides
quick access to an operating system's
more or less hidden controls (Windows
Vista/Seven). How does that work? You
have to create a folder with a certain
string (GUID) at the end.

But that can be pretty hard and, even,
unaesthetic. Why? Well, it can get
pretty hard to create a lot of them
(considering the large number of
GodModes out there). Furthermore, that
GUID doesn't look very nice on your
desktop.

This is where Go GodMode enters the
scene: This small app will help you
create over 50 GodModes just by
selecting them and pressing the GO
button. It also provides a few cool
options:

Instead of creating the folders on
your desktop, you can create them in a
folder on your computer and just
create a shortcut on your desktop. You
can also add shortcuts to the Start
Menu, QuickLaunch and Favorites
folder.

You can add GodModes to folder and
desktop context menus without even
adding a single file or folder to your
harddrive!"
