If you use Windows 7, you must aware that, its one of the best OS ever MS created. Its fast, its Secure and its FUN to use. Well If you are a legal owner of the Windows 7 OS you have a good news from MS, there is a option called Windows 7 “GodMode”.

What is Windows 7 GodMode??
Windows 7 “GodMode” is a term devised by the Microsoft development team, which provides a single place to access all Windows settings without needing to browse options and folders in the Control Panel.

Before You do it please read the BIG RED WARNING.
The trick appears to work on both the 32 and 64-bit versions of Windows 7. Vista 32-bit and Windows Server 2008 32-bit should also work. However, it is known to crash 64-bit versions of Vista — and you may need to boot in safe mode or to the command line to delete the folder.

OK Now lets create it.

1. Create a Folder anywhere (I prefer in C: , as its a data disk and easy to access. You can create on desktop also.)
2. Rename the folder: GodMode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}
Note: You are free to change the text “GodMode” but the period and the following folder strings are essential
3. One you rename the folder the folder Icon will change and it look similar to this:

4. Double click on the Icon and you have the Windows 7 “GodMode”

The PowerShell in Win Server 2008 R2 is included the Administration module for the Internet Information Services (IIS). The cmdlets let you manage the IIS or administrate the run time data of IIS.

You can manually add the IIS Module to the instance of Windows PowerShell that you have opened by using the following command at the command prompt: C:\PS>add-pssnapin WebAdministration.

There are lot of upgrades in AD than the older versions of Windows Server. AD 2008 R2 is a easiest way to configure for the Admin of Organization. Bellow is the screen shot of Active Directory Administrative Center (ADAC) of Windows Server 2003 R2.

The new features in Active Directory 2008 R2 are as follows:

1. Active Directory Recycle Bin- The AD Recycle Bin option in Windows Server 2008 R2 is a one of the best Administrator companion. This AD Recycle bin allows Administrator to recover the Accidentally deleted Active Directory objects. In the previous versions it was a dream, If any objects were deleted by accidentally Administrator would have to create the object from scratch. which would create a whole new series of security principles for the new/unique object. The AD Recycle Bin now enables an
administrator to simply run the recovery tool and recover deleted objects like restoring deleted items from recycle bin.
How to Setup AD Recycle bin: Here is Active Directory Recycle Bin Step-by-Step Guide

2. Powershell Cmdlets – The Windows Server 2008 R2 replace the current Active Directory command line tools. There are about 85 Active Directory related PowerShell cmdlets.

3. Managed Service Accounts – When an organization or Administrator changes the password of a service account, all servers with applications using the service account need to be updated with the new password. This has to done manually by Admin sitting whole night. But in AD 2008 R2, Service accounts can be identified and managed. So the password changed to a Service Account will be automatically updated all over the organizations and accounts.

4. Offline Domain Join – Another good future of the AD 2008 R2 is Offline Domain Join, By this future Administrator can automate the joining of domain system (Ex. Windows 7) during upgrade or deployment with a XML file. This future works even the target domain system is even offline. There is a tool to join the domain is : Djoin.exe.

For more info about Offline Domain Join or Djoin.exe is available here.

5. Authentication Mechanism Assurance – Another Active Directory 2008 R2 feature is the enhancement of claims-based authentication in Active Directory. With authentication mechanism assurance, information in a token / packet can be extracted whenever a user attempts to access a claims-aware application to determine authorization based on the user’s logon method. This extension will be leveraged by future applications to improve claims-based authentication in the enterprise.
