WampServer 3 web server build overview

 Note! It is not recommended to use a web server collection as a platform for hosting sites both on the Internet and in corporate networks, i.e. they are created for local development and testing only. This is a recommendation from the developers of any web server build. WampServer is a free build of a web server, i.e. platform for web development under the Windows operating system. This assembly includes all the necessary software for creating dynamic web applications (sites), namely: Apache web server, PHP programming language, MySQL DBMS and other auxiliary software, such as phpMyAdmin. For those who don't know WAMP is an acronym for "Windows, Apache, MySQL and PHP" i.e. a word consisting of the first letters of the listed applications. There is also LAMP, where L is Linux, and MAMP, where M is Mac OS. WampServer is available for both 32 bit and 64 bit Windows.

 What is God Mode in Windows


“God Mode” in Windows is a special folder that contains shortcuts to launch various tools for managing, configuring and administering the operating system.

In other words, in one folder there is all the functionality with which the Windows operating system is configured and managed.

This feature greatly simplifies and speeds up the work related to Windows administration, since in this case there is no need to open "Settings" or "Control Panel" of Windows and look for the necessary functionality there, i.e. open one window, then another, and so on.

It is due to the fact that the system can be controlled from one place, from a single point, that this feature is called “God Mode”.

The essence of this mode is that all control panel elements that are part of Windows, including the control panel itself, are assigned a canonical name and a unique GUID that can be used to launch this element programmatically. In this way, we have direct access to all Windows customization functions.

And due to the fact that Windows has a system for identifying all standard folders, we can use the GUID to create a folder to launch any item in the control panel.

And if you create a folder with the GUID of the control panel itself, then when you open this folder, all control panel items will be stored in it, which is God Mode.

You can view the GUIDs of available control panel items in the official documentation - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/shell/controlpanel-canonical-names
