Can create CON Folders

[WR1334]

Our friend MUKIL mention that CON name folder cant create in Windows OS. 

Reason:
Not only CON but also we cant create a folder with many words like   PRN, AUX, CLOCK$,  NUL  , COM1,  COM2,  COM3,  COM4,  COM5,COM6, COM7, COM8, COM9, LPT1, LPT2, LPT3, LPT4, LPT5, LPT6, LPT7, LPT8, and  LPT9 .
This are reserved keywords used by DOS.
These folders are already existing folders so when you try to create these folders then windows gets confused because of ambiguity.

Can create:

Note: Am using Local disk F.


Open CMD and type the following:

1. To Create CON Folder:

Code:

MD\\.\F:\CON

2. To Create PRN Folder:

Code:

MD\\.\F:\PRN

3. To Create LPT1 Folder:

Code:

MD\\.\F:\LPT1

Reason behind this creating concept is
We used Universal Naming Convention (UNC) Path concept
\\server\share\file_path
