Yes, folder by these two names cannot be created but, I have wondered we get the two different prompting while trying to create ether of the folder. Con and Nul, both the words are made from three alphabets but when we try to create a folder by the name of Con then it says Cannot create or replace file: The filename you specified is invalid or too long. Specify a different filename. Where as if we try to make the folder by the name of Nul then it prompts Cannot rename New Folder: A file with the name you specified already exists. Specify a different filename. I could not understand the logic of this error message that The filename you specified is invalid or too long when we give the name Con to folder. Whatever may be the cause of not creating the folder of these name but I am more keen to put this in my knowledge that creating any folder of even 10, 15 alphabets, we don't see any problem in terms of size but if try to create the folder by the name of Con, the word of three Alphabets, then it is telling us the specified file name too long! Seems interesting!
