Creating Undeletable, Unrenamable Folders In Windows Using CMD
Have you ever Think how you can make a folder which neither can be deleted nor be renamed. Well, if you have, then you have come to the right place. With this trick, you will be able to create folders in Windows which cannot be renamed or deleted.
The basic concept behind this trick is the use of Keywords. Keywords are reserved words in any programming language that cannot be used as names of variables. Windows also uses certain keywords in its programming. Some of them are con, aux, lpt1, lpt2, lpt3, lpt4, lpt5, lpt6, lpt7, lpt8 and lpt9.
Make Undeletable and unrenamable folders
if you have any doubt on this concept
To test this concept, make a new folder in Windows and try to give it a name same as any keyword mentioned above.
you see
Windows will not rename your folder to any of the keyword given above.
how can we make a folder with a keyword as its name? The solution to this problem is Windows itself. As we know that Windows has evolved from D.O.S.(Disk Operating System), its commands can be used in Windows. You can use D.O.S. Programming in Windows to create a folder with a keyword as its name using
Process"
Open Command Prompt
.
In the Command Prompt Window that opens, type the name of the drive you wish to create your folder in the format <drive-name>: and press Enter. e.g. If you wish to create the undeletable folder in E drive, type "E:" without the quotes. Note that the folder cannot be created in the root of C: drive (if C: is your system drive).
Type this command- "md con\" or "md lpt1\" without the quotes and press Enter. You can choose any of the keywords given above as the name of your folder.
Now Windows will create an undeletable, unrenamable folder in the drive you entered in Step 3. However, the folder can be renamed to another keyword using Windows Explorer.
Way To Deleting the Folder
Although, it is not possible to manually delete the folder, you can delete the folder by typing "rd con\" or "rd lpt1\" in Step 4 instead of "md con\" or "md lpt1\".
This works on Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8 and Windows 8.1.
