can you create con folder in windows, if not why?..

Answer / rajkumar baswa

No,We cannot create the folder name CON.

It’s pretty simple, Con is a reserved name from the early
days from DOS, it stands for the “CONSOLE” I/O device, Since
it is already used by the system. If we create one with some
evil tricks then the system will get confused. There will be
an ambiguity.
