i tested this a bit more
most restricted names, aux, prn, etc work the same way as con. the one exception i found was "nul" which completely bugs out explorer and you cant really save anything to the hard disk. It will give you an "incorrect function" error if you try to open the "nul" folder or any other folders inside nul (e.g C:
ul\windows). command prompt still cannot read the nul folder, but can read other folders inside and still open files.
You are actually able to log into windows, but it is broken. You have to enable to built-in "Administrator" account through command prompt, thats the only way I could find to log in. After you log in it will give you a message saying you were redirected to a temporary profile, but you have the SYSTEM desktop and the default folder you save to is C:\aux/nul/etc\windows\system32\config\systemprofile\desktop. However it says you are logged in as Administrator in explorer and when you use the "whoami" command in cmd. Basically a weird mix of the Administrator and SYSTEM users. You get a unique theme which looks quite cool whilst in this user.

Basically like restricting c: disk

Next video: Installing Windows on OOBE
I have a guess what it still runs.
Windows doesn't care as its a normal folder and windows creates the DOS device mappings, that includes CON. You can find this in the registry entry
'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\DOS Devices'.
It means CON is not reserved name until certain subsystem reserves it. That's my guess why it boots as its a simple folder, not some special virtual folder. And certain apps when they call the CON they call the DOS one and certain ones would do the normal path calling, would explain why some work and some dont. Just my guess.
dude i love your videos your my favorite youtuber ever ! :)
something wonderful has happened, you're windows 7 is alive!

@@gbles1457 I know it's a common reaction,but I love what Enderman does anyway :)
@@unknownboi3824 same
"it's a miracle"
it's not. the "c:\con" limitation is a completely arbitrary limitation. Windows NT does not actually rely on those device names at all - it's compatibility with DOS.
Though close, not quite. If you had a CONSOLE output on your PC there would be more problems.
@@luphoria is that a console output?
@@Alex-cn1xt Yes
@@MultiYippee and this is why when you use "type con" then Just type Something and it will show up two times.

Installing Windows on a CD Drive?? 🤔🤔🤔
@@MrRadsVarietyChannel he meant installing a window on a window
@NintendoFanBoi RBLX Umm
@NintendoFanBoi RBLX r/wooosh
So much of the breakage here was due to Windows thinking it's files were in C:\Windows and not C:\Con\Windows. If that had been changed there would likely be little breakage.
Me: How bad did you break Windows?
Enderman: Yes.

Can you name folder/file as slash or backslash somehow?
Imagine not being able to create anything called "con"
*THIS COMMENT WAS MADE BY THE GNU/Linux GANG*
Every system have his own forbidden names
Wonder what would happen if you name a file 'con' from linux and put it in windows

All the French people is like laughing so hard because "con" is a bad word 👌
oui oui 😂
Oui
Maybe that’s why the command : “cd con\con”
Okay, now do the same with the folder "...".
Yes, you got me right, three dots as the folder name.
Don't know if you can create it easily using your tricks, but it's definitely a weird folder to deal with.

BSOD
there was this exploit where if you interrupt the boot process of windows 7 at the right time, on next boot it says there was an error and it lets you save an error report, but the "save as" explorer window has all the functions of normal explorer and is elevated, so i just copied cmd.exe and replaced sethc.exe and voila admin command prompt, i dont think microsoft ever patched it either lol
i did it when i was like 13 (so like 2010) bc my parents didnt want me on the computer all the time

Error: critical error is like a sign saying “DO NOT READ THIS SIGN”
The reason why a subdirectory of C:\CON works is that only the CON of the name by itself is reserved, but not if it is part of a path.
In all your tests and videos you just demonstrate which applications are sloppy coded and assume that the default paths and names are "there". Sadly, most are this and not UNC aware or cannot work with them.
Some stuff that I experience in programming where there are many conventions which aren't necessary true. If you do some basic defense checking before you call functions or encapsulate them, a sane application will do work.
