Mission Impossible accomplished: Create a CON Folder in Windows OS


Creating a folder named “con,prn,nul,com1,com2 or lpt1 is impossible in windows we have been listening since a long time..but no longer..As here is a way possible..
You cannot create these folders because when you create a new folder and try to rename it to one of the above mentioned specified names, it automatically changes to “New Folder” Whereas in Windows Vista or Seven when you try to rename the file a dialog box appears with an error message “The specified device name is invalid”.

There is how to create a CON folder .
1. Go to command prompt
2. Now Type in prompt (TO CREATE CON FOLDER IN E: DRIVE)
C:\>md \\.\e:\con
"con" can be replaced by the other names “prn, nul,com1,com2,lpt1" etc.
3. If you want to delete the folder just use this command:
C:\>rd \\.\e:\con
