I wonder if the text before the period is what the folder gets named to and the bracket code is what triggers the auto folder configuration for "GodMode" or whatever you wanna call it.
Currently using VS 2015 Enterprise on Win10 Enterprise x64.

That's exactly what's going on.
You can name any folder like <name>.<CLSID>.
It'll show up as <name> but will redirect to the 'namespace root' corresponding to the CLSID.
(How to create a namespace root with an CLSID I don't know, but it sounds cool )

lol its not that cool I'm afraid :P there are just keys in the registry that contains the information for the shell folders, for the 'god mode' one (which is actually called All Tasks not god mode) it would be: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}
There are hundreds of subkeys in that CLSID key but not many of them can be used as folder names (well they can but they wont do anything) but if you do some searching in that key for specific things you can find useful ones - for example naming a folder this will make it a shortcut to the Network and Sharing Centre Something.{8E908FC9-BECC-40f6-915B-F4CA0E70D03D} (minus the smiley face of course)

this has been around for a while. It was a way to give yourself a control panel applet on your desktop for example.

What I wrote was an almost literal quote from the blog I posted earlier in this thread.
I figured the MS employee would know about it
