[QUOTE="EmperorRXF, post: 576115, member: 11026"] if somebody really wants to create a fldr named "con" that is the way to go.... the reason for not being able to create it in the normal way is that "CON" is a reserved word in windows... also are PRN, AUX, NUL, COM1 - COM9 and LPT1 - LPT9. Its just like we cant use special chars such as '<' '>' ';' etc.. in folder names... actually the word CON represents a device, the CONSOLE to be precise (the screen).. n AUX AUXILIARY & PRN the PRINTER, COM & LPT represent devices connected to ports 1 through 9.... n this is not some new discovery.. its just the way the OS uses reserved words....
