How to enable God Mode in Windows 11/10 and Win 8 and Win 7

God Mode is one of the best-kept hidden features in Windows 7, 8, 10, and 11, which is a special folder that provides quick access to nearly 50 categories and over 200 system tools and settings. Instead of digging through multiple menus in the Settings app or the Control Panel, all Windows’ key settings, controls and tools are organized alphabetically in this centralized panel.

Contrary to its dramatic name, browsing in God Mode will not harm your PC. However, DO NOT change settings you are unfamiliar with, as this can affect system stability or security. If you want to unlock this powerful feature, follow the steps introduced in this article.
