Certain folder names like "CON", "PRN", and "COM1" cannot be created in Windows as they are reserved words from the underlying DOS operating system. However, it is possible to create folders with these names using DOS commands like "mkdir" in the Command Prompt by specifying the full directory path starting with "\\.\". These reserved folder names can then be removed using the "rmdir" command.

1. Hi friends have you tried to create CON folder in Windows operating system. if not just try.
The reason for this is that the following words are reserved words in DOS. Windows completely
based on DOS(Disk Operating System). Try and create a folder with any of the following names:
CON PRN AUX CLOCK$ NUL COM1 COM2
COM3 COM4 COM5 COM6 COM7 COM8 COM9
LPT1 LPT2 LPT3 LPT4 LPT5 LPT6 LPT7
LPT8 LPT9
But we can create using below commands in DOS(Command Prompt).
Start -> Run -> CMD
c:/>mkdir .c:con
Remove folder
c:/>rmdir .c:con
