TRICK #1
An Indian discovered that nobody can create a FOLDER
anywhere on the computer which can be named as “CON”.
This is something pretty cool…and unbelievable. ..
TRY IT NOW ,IT WILL NOT CREATE ” CON ” FOLDER
Not only CON, we cannot create any of these
CON, PRN, AUX, CLOCK$, NUL, COM1, COM2, COM3, COM4, COM5, COM6, COM7, COM8, COM9, LPT1, LPT2, LPT3, LPT4, LPT5, LPT6, LPT7, LPT8, LPT9 and more
The reason is that con, prn, lpt1..lpt9, etc are underlying devices from the time dos was written. so if u r allowed to create such folders, there will be an ambiguity in where to write data when the data is supposed to go to the specified devices. In other words, if i want to print something, internally what windows does is -- it will write the data to the folder prn (virtually u can call it a folder, i mean prn, con, etc are virtual folders in device level). So if we are able to create con folder, windows will get confused where to write the data, to virtual con folder or real one.
So Now, Try this...
Open the Command prompt by Start -> Run and typing cmd
C:\> md \\.\c:\con
ok it will be created in c drive.but if u use a command like this md \\.\C:\Documents and Settings\admin\Desktop\con it will not work
you need to put " around documents and settings for the command to work, thus... md \\.\C:\"Documents and Settings"\admin\Desktop\con
Windows Command Prompt cannot interpret empty spaces, it treats it as a separate command, in other words the path you were specifying did not exist
ok howerver u hav managed to create it
Now, try to delete the folder
OOPS!!! You cant delete it..
Now, try this in command prompt console
C:\> rd \\.\c:\con
Yeah!! You did it..
TRICK #2
For those of you using Windows, do the following:
1.) Open an empty notepad file
2.) Type “Bush hid the facts” (without the quotes)
3.) Save it as whatever you want.
4.) Close it, and re-open it.
See What happened.....................
