Why we cannot create folder by the name CON?

"CON" and a number of other character strings are in fact reserved names that go back to the days of DOS and cannot be used to name folders or files. Other reserved names are:

* PRN
* AUX
* NUL
* LPT1
* COM1
* Potential drive letter - A: to Z:

drives letters are not allowed coz : was not allowed in a folder name

but the thing is u can name a folder СON by copying my СON word.........thats the main reason why i posted it here...........

Never knew this..thanks.

nothing is impossible, when naming folder press ALT+0160 then type CON

we are not talking about fakes.......

main point is how to create the con folder by hook or by crook, if u cant digest how its done, well that's not my problem.

we need only 3 characters dude and you used one more character.........

my friend in that alt+0160 and alt+255 trick we added a one more trick..........but in my thing there are only 3 characters

who said we cant use 1 more character???? Is it against the law

Ur trick work when somebody find this thread do copy paste and after that he can only make con

dont you see in the topic that we can't create a folder named 'con'......but you created a folder named ' con'..........i think it proved all the things......

u said i am the best well i'm not think so, well in 1st pic ur con is converted into webding font and in 2nd pic normal con is converted into webding font see for ur self u have fiddled ur con which is actually not a normal CON

u said i am the best well i'm not think so, well in 1st pic ur con is converted into webding font and in 2nd pic normal con is converted into webding font see for ur self u have fiddled with ur con which is actually not a normal CONlund con.JPG my con.JPG

make real CON don't do special character tricks to make "C", u said i use extra character well yes but in my trick C is original in ur its something else changes attributes when pasted.

try my every CON word before 12th post nd it shows everyone in a differ form..........it was a character only......and every upper and lower case also represent something else try my СON in ariel font and u'll find everything fine there..............BTW nice try to find out the thing..........

in ur CON C is the main thing which is not normal , try to change to different symbol fonts then revert back to normal then it shows true colors i know u have use some kind of char combination to make C, u said its a character only if its a normal char then u cant fool the windows to make it why u misleading everyone here my screen shot simplifies its not normal C,normal airel font C converts into square box rather than SPider in webding font.

just try my all cOn words coz every word takes a differ value in upper and lower case..........BTW i have used only 3 characters thats the main thing...........there is no need to fight dear......if you think that you are the best than i'm happy that you are the best.............goood luck...

its not about the best its about how we can name those folders, u just don't wanna disclose which combination u used for making "C" and telling everyone to copy paste then what is the use of trick??? either u tell what combi u used to make c
