Create a con folder using CMD (Command Prompt)

When you try to create a new folder and try to rename it to any one of the above specified names, you know what happens! In Windows XP the folder name automatically changes back to “New Folder” where as in case of Windows Vista and Windows 7, when you try to rename the file you get an error message saying “The specified device name is invalid”.
The reason behind this is name like con is reserved by the system so you can’t create it. But I will tell you the trick to create the folder name as con which is unrenamable and undeletable.
Now I’ll tell you the trick in some step using CMD 
Step 1: Open command Prompt form Start Menu.
Step 2: Switch to the drive where you need to create the folder by typing c: , d: , e: here c ,d ,e are the drives where you want to create the folder
Step 3: type md con\ in cmd here md is the syntax of cmd used for made directory.

Congo …you have created a unrenamable and undeletable folder.

Note : You can’t delete this folder normally because it can be deleted by using command prompt.

To Delete this folder just type rd con\ in same directory using command prompt.
