Here is the way to create the folder named aux,con
CON, PRN, AUX, CLOCK$, NUL, COM1, COM2, COM3, COM4, COM5, COM6, COM7, COM8, COM9, LPT1, LPT2, LPT3, LPT4, LPT5, LPT6, LPT7, LPT8, and LPT9 is a device name. ( so you cannot create a folder named con ) All device names are RESERVED and all reserved names
can not be used as the name of a folder!!!
For your information, devices are mapped in MS DOS as files but here is an alternate way to create the folder or file named con .........
STEP1: goto command prompt
STEP2: type in prompt e:\> "mkdir \\.\x:\con" ['x' is your drive name]
STEP3: verify by typing "dir \\.\x:\con"
STEP4: delete the file or folder "rmdir \\.\x:\con"
