Create Folders with Name that are Restricted in Windows (eg: con)

U cannot Create Folders with below name's in Windows :

CON, AUX, COM1, COM2, COM3, COM4, LPT1, LPT2, LPT3, PRN, NUL….

Because they all are the  System Calls of Window's OS 

But if u Want to do so follow this steps  :



1: goto command prompt (cmd)

2: type in prompt c:\> "md \\.\c:\con"

3: verify it by typing "dir \\.\c:\con"

4: delete the file or folder "rd \\.\c:\con"

Now you can see a folder named con or any other in your c drive
