Create 'CON' folder in command prompt

Image
P reviously, I posted about device files. We cannot create a folder named with those device file names.  But there is a way to create such folders using command prompt…  Just follow the steps: 1. Open command prompt   Start -> Run -> cmd 2.   I planned to create the folder in K: location so I’m going to enter     md \\.\k:\con   in command      This will create a folder named ‘con’ successfully.  But, you cannot delete it by normal ways like hitting the delete key or shift + delete. If the folder contains anything, deleting by shift+delete or delete key will delete all the files in the folder alone. Leaves the folder as it is.. 3. To delete the folder, open command prompt and enter     rd \\.\k:\con This command removes ‘con’ folder. I hope this was interesting and helpful.. :)  Related posts,  Why cannot we create a folder nam...
