Make folders with reserved name such as con
You can't make folders on the desktop that have "System Action" or "Device" references such
as con, nul and prn.
Here are others :
CON, PRN, AUX, CLOCK$, NUL, COM1, COM2, COM3, COM4, COM5, COM6, COM7, COM8, COM9,
LPT1, LPT2, LPT3, LPT4, LPT5, LPT6, LPT7, LPT8, LPT9
LPT1, LPT2, LPT3, LPT4, LPT5, LPT6, LPT7, LPT8, LPT9
Go to command Prompt,
Go to the location where you want to make the folder with name “con”.
write the command:
mkdir \\.\e:\con
mkdir \\.\e:\con
To remove the folder again:
rmdir \\.\e:\con
rmdir \\.\e:\con
You may also edit the \e:\ to any drive (such as \c:\ ) and may also continue the file path before writing con(or any other reserved names). An example is - mkdir \\.\c:\program files\adobe\nul .
