The poster does not give any blame to who ever came up with this:

> 1. Right-click on your desktop and select New Folder 2. Type in or copy and paste the following as the name: GodMode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C} 3. Hit Enter and the folder icon will change to GodMode 4. Enjoy easy access to all Windows 10 settings!

I know that the exception came from GetDisplayNameOf handling it incorrectly, but this whole thing begs the question:

Why is this a good way to do shortcuts?

the godmode feature is undocumented probably _because_ it's a terrible way to do shortcuts.

It's a feature for developers:
