There is a hidden “God Mode” in Windows 7 which lets you to modify some advanced settings in one place. You do not have to search for this mode and you need to create it yourself. In the Windows Explorer, create a new folder first. Then, change the name as “GodMode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}”. The folder will then turn into an app. Double click it and find the advanced settings like BitLocker, Administrative Tools and more. It’s not super exciting but we all love this little hack.

    Extra info: It seems to be a developer feature, documented in MSDN since Windows Vista
