I am looking for a way to enable God-Mode in Windows 8, does anyone know how to do this or is it even possible?
It's a trick that lets you access all system's controls in one folder.

I believe it's called "Super Control Panel" in Windows 7.– leeand00Commented Jan 1, 2015 at 2:42

You just do the same on Windows 8.
- Go to Desktop.
- Create a new folder.
- Rename it to GodMode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}

4It doesn't matter what it's called as long as it ends in

It also doesn't matter where it is. I prefer not to have anything on the desktop. Commented Nov 2, 2012 at 6:04

Regardless of what you use before the GUID (ILikePuppies, GodMode, etc.)... create it in or move it to the \Windows folder, then create a shortcut (Send to Desktop) and rename that to whatever you want. No need to look at that GUID all the time.– b wCommented Apr 3, 2013 at 14:01
There is a built in God mode, from the Start Screen type settings
you will get a selection on the right, select settings , there will be 90 or more settings available. Use the scroll bar at the bottom to see all of them
.
A lot of Administrative tools can be accessed by pressing Win + X.

That's actually accessible with left-clicking the bottom left corner. It has most of what pne needs from a classic start menu, programs excluded. If it only had that, start menu would be unneeded.– j rivCommented Jan 25, 2013 at 20:22
