  2. type “turn windows features on or off”
  3. choose “Telnet Client”
  4. press OK
  5. wait a few seconds for the install to complete

Windows 7 has lots of ‘GodModes’ (exclusive) | Beyond Binary – CNET News

Posted by jpluimers on 2010/01/14

Some more GodModes in Windows 7.
Note that some might work in Vista too, but note that Vista-64 users have problems with the original ‘GodMode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}‘ folder name (in fact any name before the dot will work: ‘Thor.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}‘ is fine too.

You can also run ‘explorer shell:::{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}‘ from the command-line or from a batch file (like thor.bat).
