1.Right click on the desktop and click new folder.

2.Rename your new folder to "GodMode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}" (without the quotes).

3.The folder should instantly turn into a control panel icon.

You should end up with an icon called 'God Mode',looks a bit like a credit card to me.

Just tried it again,works fine. You did leave out the quote marks and it is for Win 7 only.

well it sort of works, it appears to be an all encompassing control panel.. I was expecting more of the original CP..
