Freeware for creating folders with restricted names

10 posts · originally from https://geek.digit.in/community/threads/freeware-for-creating-folders-with-restricted-names.141455/

Hi guys, I recently came across this software called Concu which can create folder names such as Con, Prn, Aux, Nul, Lpt1, Com1. Works on Windows 95/98/Me/2000/XP/Vista/NT.

Concu - Free software downloads and software reviews - CNET Downloads

Cool however useless

Yep. I know

Who would want to keep such dangerous names?

I liked this one - might be useful in future - so added it in my collection anyway, thanks for sharing ;-)

i created these folders using LINUX. :wink:

Looks like a school project of a student.

One can use the following command to force create the folder through Command Prompt:

Code:

md \\.\[Path]\con

eg: if you want to create the folder in D: drive, then use following command at command prompt:

Code:

md \\.\D:\con
