Hi Folks followed a fellow members advice for installing God mode file, and when I open file windows explorer stops working , then restarts..I cannot delete file.
How can one remove this file?
Or get it to work ?
Thanks.

If you're talking about the GodMode described earlier with a single string command entered, it's just deleting the shortcut that command created. It's not a program or other thing which installed....it's just a Windows administration command they don't really advertise. I first heard about this quite some time back while in PC Hardware and Networking courses.

The big thing is, if running that command is doing anything odd or other than opening the index to all the Windows configuration shortcut commands then I'd say there is a much bigger problem and you may consider MalwareBytes and a good virus program of your choice....all run in Windows Safe Mode.

I've heard of people doing real damage by using things GodMode makes available that otherwise aren't easy to get to and screw up, but it shouldn't be causing problems by merely being there. It doesn't do or add anything. It just gives an index to basically everything in Windows that does. (??)

Actually, there apparently is a problem. Vista is different from Win7, and I've heard of people having problems like OP's from creating the God Mode on both Vista 32 and 64. A Google search will turn up a number of problems and solutions.

Ah. I see I'm a little slow on the trigger again, as this has already been addressed....

Im not familiar with "godmode" for windows.
Is it like rooting your phone?
Something like this wasnt necessary for windows 98 and below, it allowed you to pretty much do what you wanted/needed but MS decided to make the current windows idiot proof for XP and beyond, without 3rd party appz at least.

Sounds like you've opened something inside the folder, which is then using an explorer process on that open file.

That will prevent you from deleting the folder.

It's like a box with a piece of cake inside, and you and tied a piece of string to the cake, and the string is hanging outside of the box. You can't throw the box away because the string keep getting caught on things... lamest explanation possible, but it involves cake so it works on some level.

Rebooting your pc should fix this.

I use a program called Unlocker (32 & 64 bit available) that can show you what process is locking a file from being moved, renamed or deleted. It can schedule deletion/renaming/moving on the next boot if it's a system process you cannot kill. Google for it, it's handy to have if you get this a lot.

But it's just a folder.. the guid represents what it contains as a system folder I guess.

Tried rebooting ..I guesss the file is there doing some py activity...I hav etaped over my webcam.
Sick of being an iriot and following trolls advice.
