You started the same old topic the world had discussed,,and bored....even in digit as mod tolds....so now another question also someone will ask like
"No one in this universe can make a ' LPT ' folder!!!"

I was able to make the folder named LPT in Windows directly

Here's another method I thought I'd drop by.

Right click>New>Folder

type: con

and then select the ALT key

and at the same time on the NUMBERPAD type 255 (With the ALT key selected)

And there is con!!!

Have fun!!!

no need for cmd!!!

Now does anyone know how to delete the folder? It's on the desktop for me and I couldn't use cmd it just wouldn't work

nice idea bumping a 2 year old thread for a first post

nyway, I just right click, new folder and name it as con. 100% no issues.
this thread title is just a FUD.

i read it somewhere that this happens because of UNC.
1 more thing u can also try out with other file names like prn,com1 to com9,etc

computer41: Your method actually will have a "space" after con.. so it will be "con " and not "con" so that doesn't count.

Metalhead: Renaming does not work on windows.

Anyway.. this has been discussed to death many times.
