For the lazy: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Master_Control_Panel_s...

The Windows Master Control Panel shortcut, labeled All Tasks and also called Windows God Mode by bloggers and All Tasks folder by at least one Microsoft developer, is a shortcut to access various control settings in Windows Vista and later operating systems, including Windows 10. By creating a folder with a certain name, users have access to all of the operating system's control panels from within a single folder.

The shortcut is implemented by creating a folder with the extension .{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}. GodMode was the original folder name used when the feature was publicised, but any name can be used.

Also for the lazy, since I had never seen it before: IDDQD is the cheat code for 'God Mode' in Doom.

I definitely realize that by writing this comment I am both identifying myself as not a gamer and reverse-dating myself. :)
