trick to create con folder in windows using Command Prompt.
Posted in tricks
hi guys m gonna tell u simple trick to make con folder
as it is also possible to make this folder my pressing alt+255 while renaming
it but here is other method which list one knows
Step 1:
Open Command Prompt(Start->run->cmd)
Step 2:
Type this command:
md \\.\d:\con
This will create con folder in D Drive.
Step 3:
To Remove the folder type this command
rd \\.\d:\con
This will remove con folder from D Drive
The UNC syntax for Windows systems is as follows..
\\RemoteHost\sharedfolder\resource
where RemoteHost is the computer name / IP address of the computer that you wish to connect
through remotely for accessing shared folder. The rest is the path.
(Here \\remotehost\drive:\con doesn't make sense anyway, because without having a process
on the remote host, there is no current 'console'). It would be a security hazard as well,
having the serial and parallel ports accessible for everyone who is allowed to read or write in any single directory.
The "." in the command \\.\c:\con suggest the local server. Now, you are pointing to your own computer.
since, you have all privilages on every folder of ur computer, you can easily create it.
