God Mode is a special feature that you can find in Windows. It is a special, secret folder that you can enable in Windows and it will let you access some of the special Windows settings and accessibility through a single interface. Through the God Mode folder, you will be able to access most of the administration and management settings along with Control Panel tools through a single interface.
All of these settings and tools are accessible too by searching them through the Start Menu, but you would need to search for each of those tools separately. With God Mode, you would easily be able to access all of those through a single interface. This special folder doesn’t have any name and it is given “God Mode” by people themselves. You can name the folder anything that you want to.
