RESERVE WORD! eg: u cannot create a variable named using a keyword in java or wots so ever programming language,

So in this case Several special file names are reserved by the system and cannot be used for files or folders; Eg: not only CON.. there're others like..
AUX, COM1, COM2, COM3, COM4, LPT1, LPT2, LPT3, PRN, NUL .

you know that we cant create a folder named CON, NUL, COM1, COM2, COM3, LPT1, LPT2, LPT3,COM1 to COM9 and LPT1 to LPT9....

in any of the windows operating system.

try with this.

but here is the master mind....................

i found one method to create the folders with these reserverd system names.

here is the solution to create the folder named con and other system variables.

1) go to run dialog.
2) type cmd/command (command prompt gets opened)
3) go to root directory like C:\ or D:\ etc
4) type md\\.\\c:\\con ....(here is done)
5) check the folder on the respected drive.

try

& reply if not working.

it's a some kind of netwrk associated folder scene ekaklu... I dnt knw wot it means though

btw

Similarly to delete such folder:
DELETION
Syntax:rd/s \\.\\$path
Examplerompt>rd/s \\.\\C:\con
Explanation: This would remove the folder named "con"!
Note: rd(Remove Directory) command is used with "/s" switch as otherwise it
would give error that "folder is not empty"!
