    Finally, now I can finally complete the windows 7 campaign!
    Does this hack work on win7 multiplayer too?

    I'm not sure if most of you guys already know this but I still wanna share it anyway for those who don't :) this tweak also works on Vista 32 bit but it has issues on Vista 64 bit but it has no problem at all on Win 7 32/64 bit.

    If you want a folder where you can find everything from monitor calibration to device manager to folder options etc etc., just make a new folder (i did mine in desktop folder) and rename it to GodMode.{ed7ba470-8e54-465e-825c-99712043e01c}

    Enjoy :)

    With a bit of searching I found out that there's some other secret developer stuff you can do with win7 folders.. and you don't have to name the folder godmode, they can be named whatever you like.

    here's the list of strings..

    {00C6D95F-329C-409a-81D7-C46C66EA7F33}
    {0142e4d0-fb7a-11dc-ba4a-000ffe7ab428}
    {025A5937-A6BE-4686-A844-36FE4BEC8B6D}
    {05d7b0f4-2121-4eff-bf6b-ed3f69b894d9}
    {1206F5F1-0569-412C-8FEC-3204630DFB70}
    {15eae92e-f17a-4431-9f28-805e482dafd4}
    {17cd9488-1228-4b2f-88ce-4298e93e0966}
    {1D2680C9-0E2A-469d-B787-065558BC7D43}
    {1FA9085F-25A2-489B-85D4-86326EEDCD87}
    {208D2C60-3AEA-1069-A2D7-08002B30309D}
    {20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}
    {2227A280-3AEA-1069-A2DE-08002B30309D}
    {241D7C96-F8BF-4F85-B01F-E2B043341A4B}
    {4026492F-2F69-46B8-B9BF-5654FC07E423}
    {62D8ED13-C9D0-4CE8-A914-47DD628FB1B0}
    {78F3955E-3B90-4184-BD14-5397C15F1EFC}

    To make them work, create a new folder with any name, then a period, then one of these text strings.

    and as with any tweaks, use at your own risk !
    Have fun :)

    Heheh funny to see GodMode there. As Ami said it can just be named {ed7ba470-8e54-465e-825c-99712043e01c}.

    This was something that was revealed during the Vista beta. Someone started the GodMode thing and it's stuck ever since.

    You are renaming the file wrong. GodMode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C} doesn't contain any of these characters.Just copy-paste during the renaming of the folder.
