- abhisekumar 11y agoIt is true 100 %
- stephengillie 11y agoTL;DR it's the same "godmode" hack that works in Win7. So if you just kept the modified shortcut in a random folder somewhere, it should still work.
- greenyoda 11y agoInterestingly, this also works in Windows 7, so it must be a pretty old feature. But it doesn't give you any god-like powers, just a lot of functions from various control panels assembled in one place. And any function that requires admin privileges (like "create an account") brings up the usual prompt for the admin password.
- krapp 11y agoStill really convenient, though.
- jongalloway2 11y agoThis has worked on Windows since at least Vista. You can use any folder name with the suffix .{ed7ba470-8e54-465e-825c-99712043e01c}. Explanation of why it works here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Master_Control_Panel_shortcut https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Master_Control_Panel_s... It's just another view of the control panel. It's maybe a little more useful in Windows 10 (and also Windows 8.x) since there are two settings apps, although I'd suggest that the best way get things done in Windows is to use search - just hit the Windows key (or click the Windows logo) and type "Bluetooth" or "printer" or "uac" or "update" or whatever. And of course, with Windows 10 you can boss Cortana around, too.
