Windows 10 has the old Control Panel and the modern Settings. But some basic ones are still missing possibilities.
Windows 10 on the other hand still has an advanced settings page called "God Mode" that lets you access all the advanced tools,
God (God Mode) allows you to access all of them functions in one place and is better than modern Windows 10 settings.
Enable God Mode in Windows 10
To access God in Windows 10, you need to create a shortcut on your desktop by following these steps:
Log in to your account with administrator privileges.
On the desktop, right-click anywhere and select "Create New Folder".
Then right-click on the new folder and rename it to:
GodMode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}
Press Enter.
Double-clicking on this folder will open God Mode. As you can see, God Mode of Windows 10 offers up to 200 settings that are categorized into different categories. For example, Disk Management options are available in Administrator Tools.
You can use CLSID, which is a unique identifier to access other configuration pages directly from the desktop.
For example, you can create a folder with the CLSID name “{D20EA4E1-3957-11d2-A40B-0C5020524153}” to open only the Administrative Tools that contain a tool reconstructions, disc format options and more.
You can also try the following values:
- Network – {F02C1A0D-BE21-4350-88B0-7367FC96EF3C}
- Bluetooth – {28803F59-3A75-4058-995F-4EE5503B023C}
