Three Things That Microsoft Can't Explain About Their Operating System by Collinz2(m): 3:18pm On Sep 20, 2014 |
MAGIC #1 Found that nobody can create a FOLDER anywhere on the Computer which can be named as CON. This is something funny and inexplicable? At Microsoft the whole Team, couldn't answer why this happened! TRY IT NOW, IT WILL NOT CREATE A "CON" FOLDER. After Trying it, I thought it's Impossible to Create a Folder with 3 letters but i was able to create many Folders with just 3 letters but CON, No way. MAGIC #2 Again this is something funny and can't be explained? At Microsoft the whole Team, including Bill Gates, couldn't answer why this happened! It was discovered by a Brazilian Programmer. Try it out yourself. Open Microsoft Word and type =rand(200,99) And then press ENTER, Wait and see the magic! Is this a Bug or What?? MAGIC #3 Am sure you all know that a flight number from one of the planes that hit one of the two WTC towers in U.S by Osama on 9/11 was Q33N. In Microsoft Word, type that flight number i.e Q33N. Increase the font size to 72 then Change the font to Wingdings, You will be amazed by the Findings, You should see the Picture of a Plane, 2 Tower Building and a Symbol meaning Danger.. This has actually been in existence even before the Incident... Microsoft should be able to explain this. Am sure by now, You should be looking for your PC/Laptop to Try them Out.. 15 Likes 3 Shares |

When you paste =rand(200,99) in microsoft word,you get a long hass document...How something as short as =rand(200,99) gets you over 500 pages of documents is an absolute marvel.. 1 Like |

Freaky and amazing at the same time... Tried all 3 of them, and they did exactly what the OP said.. Number 2 gave me 567 pages of text that I don't have time to start reading... Maybe on the 450th page one would find how Bill Gates truly made his money That number 3 is quite mysterious... If it's coincidence, then it's one of the freakiest coincidences I've seen in recent times. 1 Like |

VERY VERY old gist https://www.nairaland.com/975916/3-things-microsoft-cannot-explain 1)Con Just try creating a file/folder with a name “con” (without the quotes #obvious). RESULT: You won’t be able to do that, its not possible The same thing happens when you try these names : PRN, LPT1, LPT2, (…), LPT9, NUL, COM1, (…), COM9, and CLOCK$ 2)Notepad Bug As far as I know,this bug works only in windows XP ,still you can give it a try. Open your notepad, type in “Bush hid the facts” ,save the file with any name you like, close it. Reopen the file, this will be the view. |
