Lightbulb Microsoft Tricks(Must See)

MAGIC #1



An Indian discovered that nobody can create a FOLDER anywhere on the
computer which can be named as "CON". This is something pretty
cool...and unbelievable... At Microsoft the whole Team, couldn't answer
why this happened!

TRY IT NOW ,IT WILL NOT CREATE " CON " FOLDER


MAGIC #2

For those of you using Windows, do the following:



1.) Open an empty notepad file

2.) Type "Bush hid the facts" (without the quotes)

3.) Save it as whatever you want.

4.) Close it, and re-open it.



is it just a really weird bug? ?

MAGIC #3

microsoft crazy facts





This is something pretty cool and neat...and unbelievable... At
Microsoft the whole Team, including Bill Gates, couldn't answer why
this happened!



It was discovered by a Brazilian. Try it out yourself...



Open Microsoft Word and type



=rand (200, 99)



And then press ENTER

then see the magic...............................



AND TRY THIS: GOTO NOTEPAD

TYPE "Q33N". NOW CHANGE THE FONT SIZE TO 72 AND CHANGE THE FONT TO "WINGDINGS".

NOW SEE THE MAGIC. FOR 11/9 WTC ATTACK, THE PLANES THAT CRASHED-ONE HAD THE NUMBER "Q33N".

NOW IF YOU WILL TRY TYPING Q33N AFTER FONT CHANGING IT WONT WORK

also you cant creat a folder with names : LPT1 , LPT2 ...to... LPT9

Device names such as COM#, CON or LPT# are reserved words, and they can't be used as folder or file names.
