  • How to block Windows 7 Godmode using PowerFuse

    Posted on February 12th, 2010 Yuri Haak No comments

    As most techies already know, Windows 7 has a hidden Godmode that shows a special control panel.

    By creating a new folder and renaming it to [GodMode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}] a user is capable of creating a special control panel that enables the user to modify all kinds of hidden settings in Windows 7. 

    With RES PowerFuse 2008 and 2010 the access to this special folder can be blocked with Files and Folders security, by simple adding the rule to block “*{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}”.

    Thanks to RES Software’s product management and support department for the tip!
