1944/1945: Hitlers Nero Order against knowledge

Hello,

what would have happened, if Hitler had decided to enact his Nero order against German technology and patents?

Hitler knew that after WW I all German patents were taken by the Allies.

What if he wanted to prevent this happening again?

Burning all patentoffices, destroying only high technology examples and hiding or killing the scientists.

Yes, some things were already or would fall into the Allies hands, but Operation Paperclip would not happen, as the scientists like von Braun and Co. would be dead.

Yes, some lower ranking scientists could be hidden under new names among the many refugees.

So how would the aftermath of WW II look like?
