1. Create a new folder in any of the folder in any of your Windows partition.

2. Right-click on the folder and click on rename (or press F2)

3. Rename the folder as XYZ.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}

4. Press enter and the icon would change into an extended control panel which enlists all the tasks in Control panel.
