Want to activate GodMode in Windows 7? Here’s how!

Windows 7 users are all abuzz about the OS and its GodMode. If you haven’t heard of it, GodMode is a feature that was revealed by CNet’s Microsoft Correspondent, Ina Fried. GodMode is a folder that brings together a long list of customization settings allowing you to change all your settings from one place. Neat huh? It’s very easy to enable and damn useful if you tweak things around a lot.

I’ve broken it down into five-step process to avoid confusion:

Step 1: Right click.

Step 2: Click create folder.

Step 3: Name your sparkly, new folder this, “GodMode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}” and press enter.

“Caveat: as with any 64 bit Windows OS install to USB drive using this tool, it will give you an error in the fourth phase (making the drive bootable) if you try to run it from a 32 bit system. This is because it can not use/understand the 64 bit bootsect.exe file from the iso.

Easy fix is to extract the bootsect.exe file from a 32 bit Windows ISO and paste the file into the Wibdows 7 USB Download Tool program folder. It will then use the 32 bit version which works just fine to boot the 64 bit OS install.”

Well you can teach an old dog (like me) new tricks.
Or at least remind me of them….
