Can you create a folder named "con" in windows?? Also try to create a folder named "nul" you won't be able to. If you are not tired, also try creating folder named “prn“. I hope you could create, oh you could not??? Yes, there is a reason.
This is because “nul”, “prn” and “con” are “special” files in Windows System that are used in maintaining the internal directory structure in the FAT (File Allocation Table).
How to make it ????
Basically CON, PRN, LPT1, LPT2, LPT3 are folders which are reserved by Windows, you can't create it easily. So if you want to create any folder with these names then :
Rename the folder
Type CON , then press & hold Alt key & type 0160
Leave Alt key now.
So in this way you can make any folder with these names.
