[saurav_nolakha]

i am unable to name folder as "con" .I have tried it several times .
Plz help me to know the reason and a solution also..

[santu_29]

u cant its a reseved name,,, there are a few more which cannot be used as folder names

[rajas]

con is in short for CONsole. so its reserved word and hence cant use it to a folder

[romeo_8693]
