How to enable God Mode:

1. Right click on any blank space on your desktop
2. Click New from the menu and create a New Folder
3. Rename the folder to: GodMode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}
4. The foler name will now change and so will the icon
5. Double click it to access over 200 links to settings and tweaks

It didn't work for me. Explorer closed itself, offered me the chance to report the error and restart, but as soon as I restarted it closed again, and got stuck in this loop forever.

It works fine for me (although I don't find it that useful). What version of 2008 do you use?

If you are ready to take a step down the rabbit hole then this is how you enable GodMode in your window seven machine:

1. First navigate to a folder of your choosing such as my documents or the root drive and then create a folder, make sure you create the folder in a place that you can access it easily, having this handy tool buried within a deep folder on your hard drive will not do you any good. Creating this folder in the desktop is also a good idea.

2. Rename the folder you just created with the following string of text: GodMode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}

3. Once you have renamed the folder you will notice that the icon will no longer be yellow but rather blue which emulates a weight that the control panel shortcut looks. If you see that the folder you just created has changed its icon and that the string of text you just pasted has changed into just "GodMode" then you are ready to roll.

Thanks.
