Windows 7 Has Lots of "God Modes"

Posted by CmdrTaco on Thursday January 7, 2010 @04:00AM from the i-am-god-here dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Those intrigued by the 'GodMode' in Windows 7 may be interested to know that there are many other similar shortcuts hidden within the operating system — some going back to Vista or before. Steven Sinofsky, Windows division president, said several similar undocumented features provide direct access to all kinds of settings, from choosing a location to managing power settings to identifying biometric sensors."

I mutter "Oh god..." all the time when it spins its wheels while trying to make things shiny instead of making things happen...

I'm quite amused by the lack of "normal configuration in Linux is godmode!" posts on this story.
