Windows Registry Tricks

It's been a long time for me did not share any computer tricks in here. Recently mytheory only focus on SERP or SEO content. And for an intermezzo, i would like to give you some computer tricks and i'm going to talk about Registry Tricks. Check it out!

::. Backup Registry

Before doing some of these tricks you better backup your Registry first. How to backup Registry? emm,it's pretty easy actually,simply go to Regedit (click start-Run-type 'regedit' - click OK), click File-Export and save it anywhere (but don't forget where you save it) and you can name it anything you want

  

 

 

::. Registry Edit

I will tell you some useful tricks about Registry Windows which is simple to do, but you have to pay attention carefully because if you miss the procedure or even doing something wrong, it can be harmful..... but you can use your Backup to fix your Registry, Okay so here we go:

1. Automatically close Non-Responding Application on Shutdown
   Go to Regedit (Start-Run-regedit); Look at the left pane, click HKEY USERS , and select DEFAULT branch, expand the Control Panel branch,and select Desktop. On the right pane double click on AutoEndTasks, once you see a dialog box consist of Value Name and Value Data. Now, change the value data to 1 to automatically end tasks when computer Shutdown, otherwise, 0 means prompt user for an action.
    
2. Speed up menu Display
   Start/Run/Regedit
   HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Control Panel/Desktop ; look at the right pane, select 'MenuShowDelay' right click on it click modify and set the value by 100 . Restart the computer.
3. Restrict User from Running Specific Application
   Go to regedit; on the left pane: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer. Value Name: DisallowRun
   [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer] Create a new DWORD value and name it "DisallowRun" set the value to "1" to enable application restrictions or "0" to allow all applications to run. Then create a new sub-key called [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\ Explorer\DisallowRun] and define the applications the are to be restricted. Creating a new string value for each application, named as consecutive numbers, and setting the value to the filename to be restriced (e.g. "regedit.exe"). Restart Windows for the changes to take effect.
4. Automatically Windows Refresh
   Start/Run/Regedit
   HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Update. Value Name: UpdateMode, Data Type: REG_DWORD (DWORD Value), Value Data: default = 1. Create a new DWORD value, or modify the existing value, named "UpdateMode" and set it to equal "0" for faster updates. Restart Windows for the change to take effect.
5. Enable DVD player in Media Player
   Start/Run/Regedit
   HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\MediaPlayer\Player\Settings. Value Name: EnableDVDUI, Data Type: REG_SZ (String Value), Value Data: yes or no. Create a new string value called "EnableDVDUI" and set it to "yes" to enable DVD functionality.

Windows 7 themes for Windows XP

Sure, we don't actually have any real idea what Windows 7 will look like. But if you believe the screenshots floating around the web, the next version of Windows will look an awful lot like Vista.

by Brad Linder

Sure, we don't actually have any real idea what Windows 7 will look like. But if you believe the screenshots floating around the web, the next version of Windows will look an awful lot like Vista. With a few new effects. And so when the folks at DeviantART decided to put together a few Windows 7 themes for Windows XP, it shouldn't come as a surprise that the themes look and feel a lot like Windows Vista.
That said, they're much prettier than the default themes available for Windows XP. Unfortunately, Microsoft doesn't make it easy to install third party themes for Windows XP. Officially you're pretty much stuck with Windows XP, Windows Classic, and a Microsoft Zune theme. So the first thing you need to do to install a third party theme is to install a program called UxTheme Patcher.
If you're running Windows XP SP2 or earlier, you can download a Windows 7 theme and UxTheme Patcher in one fell swoop at MegaLeecher. Just unzip the file and click the multi-patcher file in the UX Theme Patcher Folder and then click the Windows 7 M1 VS.msstyles file in the Windows 7 M1 VS subfolder in the Themes folder.
But the included UxTheme Patcher isn't compatible with Windows XP SP3. So if you have SP3 installed, you'll need to download and install a patcher from another location. Once you've done that and rebooted your system, you should be able to install third party themes like the Windows 7 theme. Just don't expect it to look like much other than a Windows Vista theme.
What are some of your favorite third party themes for Windows XP? Let us know in the comments.

Lock Your Private Folder

Today tips is telling you how to hide and lock your private folder, in this case your private folder named ‘private’ . I tell you that this trick is very easy to do, just copy the code below and paste it in notepad:

@ECHO OFF

lock your folder

cls

if EXIST "Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}" goto UNLOCK

if NOT EXIST Private goto MDPRIVATE

:CONFIRM

echo Are U sure want to lock the folder ??(Y/N)

set/p "cho=>"

if %cho%==Y goto LOCK

if %cho%==y goto LOCK

if %cho%==n goto END

if %cho%==N goto END

echo Invalid choice.

goto CONFIRM

:LOCK

ren Private "Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}"

attrib +h +s "Control panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}"

echo The Folder has been locked

goto End

:UNLOCK

echo waitz.... enter the pass first!!!

set/p "pass=>"

if NOT %pass%== private goto FAIL

attrib -h -s "Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}"

ren "Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}" Private

echo Folder Unlocked successfully

goto End

:FAIL

echo Invalid password

goto end

:MDPRIVATE

md Private

echo The Folder successfully made

goto End

:End

After you paste the code above in notepad worksheet, save it with file name:LOCK.bat

I tell you not to forget to give the extension .bat.

And then run the batch file named LOCK which you have made earlier, and you’ll see there’s a new folder named private.

Save all your private data, document, music, video, etc in that folder. Then to lock the folder, you have to run the batch file again. If you sure want to lock that folder type Y on the command prompt line.

And then you’ll see that the folder had been disappeared. If some time you want to access that folder again, just double click the batch file named LOCK and enter the password, which is originally private.

You can change your password by making a little change on the command line situated in row 21:

if NOT %pass%== private goto FAIL

Change the word private with your new password characters.

And finally save the change.

Enjoy the speedy browser of Google Chrome

From pcworld.com and pctipsbox.com

Click here to download Google Chrome

Google takes aim squarely at Microsoft with the release of its new Web browser, Chrome. Even though it isn't jam-packed with features, Chrome lives up to its hype by rethinking the Web browser in clever and convenient ways that make using the Web a more organic experience than you'd get with either Microsoft's Internet Explorer 8 or Mozilla's Firefox 3.

Initially available for download for Windows Vista and XP, Google plans to expand its Chrome offerings to the Mac and Linux platforms as well. The company doesn't offer any timeline for these versions, though. (For additional PCWorld.com coverage of Google's new browser, see "Chrome vs. the World" and "Google's Chrome: 7 Reasons for It and 7 Reasons Against It.")

Good features of Google Chrome:

1. Chrome automatically detects the Web browser you're using and prompts you through the process of installation
2. Chrome's layout is very simple
3. At the touch of a button, Chrome lets you make a desktop, Start menu, or QuickLaunch shortcut to any Web page or Web application
4. There is a feature called Omnibar, it lets you search not just your history, but Google and other sites as well.
5. Provides incognito mode, private browsing mode.
6. Provides a feature called Bookmark Manager.

After you feel excited about Chrome, here are the tips to supercharge your Chrome experience I got from pctipsbox.com:

1) Install flash player in Google Chrome

After you have installed Chrome, some of you will find that you are not able to view Youtube video. This is especially true if you are installing Chrome under Ubuntu (or other Linux distro).

Here is what you can do to fix the problem:

• Download the flash player for windows xpi file.
• Change the xpi extension to zip
• Extract the content of the zip file into a folder
• Copy the files flashplayer.xpt and NPSWF32.dll to the directory /home/USERNAME/.wine/drive_c/windows/profiles/USERNAME/Local Settings/Application Data/Google/Chrome/Application/Plugins.
• For Vista, copy to the directory: C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\Application\Plugins
• For XP,copy to the directory C:\Documents and Settings\\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\Application\Plugins
• Create the Plugins folder if it does not exist.

Restart your Chrome. Your flash player should be working now.

2) Search from the URL bar

Unlike Firefox, you can’t find a search bar in Chrome. To perform a search, simply type your search phrase in the URL bar and press ‘Enter’. Chrome will automatically perform a Google search with the phrase.



If you want to go to a site rather than performing a search, press “Ctrl + Enter” instead. This will insert www and .com in front and behind of the term and Chrome will bring you to the site.

3) Change omnibox suggestion count

By default, Chrome only shows 5 URL suggestions when you type in the URL bar.



o increase/decrease the suggestion count, simply add the command line switch

–omnibox-popup-count=your_desirable_suggestions_count

where your_desirable_suggestion_count is the number of suggestions that you want it to show.

In Windows, right click on the Chrome shortcut icon and select Properties. In the Target field, add the above command line switch to the end of the command.

In Ubuntu, on the desktop, right click on the Application menu and select Edit Menus. Navigate to wine->Programs->Google Chrome on the left pane. Double click on Google Chrome on the right pane and edit the Command

4) Creating multiple profiles

If you are sharing your computer with others (such as your family members), you may want to create a separate profile for everyone others won’t have access to your search history.

Open the User Data folder your Chrome installation directory.

For Windows Vista

C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data

For Windows XP

C:\Documents and Settings\\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\User Data

For Ubuntu

/home/USERNAME/.wine/drive_c/windows/profiles/USERNAME/Local Settings/Application Data/Google/Chrome/User Data

Copy the Default folder and paste it in the User Data folder under another name (say Your_name).

Create a shortcut icon on your desktop and add the following command switch to your path:

–user-data-dir=”..\User Data\Your_Name”

For Vista:

C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe -–user-data-dir=”..\User Data\Your_Name”

For Windows XP

C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe –-user-data-dir=”..\User Data\Your_Name”

For Ubuntu

wine /home/USERNAME/.wine/drive_c/windows/profiles/USERNAME/Local\ Settings/Application\ Data/Google/Chrome/chrome.exe –new-http –in-process-plugins –-user-data-dir=”../User\ Data\Your_Name”

5) Change Chrome theme

If you don’t like the default theme, you can easily change it with the following steps:

• Download a Chrome theme of your liking.
• Extract the default.dll file.
• Navigate to your Chrome installation directory and go to /Application/Chrome version/Themes folder. The Chrome version will be in the form of 0.2.129.27. Replace the default.dll file in the folder with the default.dll file that you have just extracted.
• Voila! Your Chrome is now dressed with the new theme.

6) Email link with Gmail

In Chrome, you can easily create a bookmarklet to email links with your Gmail account. Here is what you do:

In your Chrome, press “Ctrl + B” to load the bookmark bar. Right-click on the bar and select ‘Add Page‘

In the Name field, type Send with Gmail (or whatever name you like).

In the URL field, copy and paste the following code:

javascript:document.location=’https://mail.google.com/mail/?ui=1&view=cm&fs=1&su=’+document.title+’&body=’+document.location;

and press OK.

If you want Gmail to load in a separate tab, insert this code instead:

javascript:window.open(’https://mail.google.com/mail/?ui=1&view=cm&fs=1&tf=1&su=’+document.title+’&body=’+document.location);return false;

Whenever you want to send a link to other, simply click the Send with Gmail bookmarklet and the Gmail compose mail window will appear.

7) Download Youtube video

This trick allows you to download Youtube video right from your Chrome.

Same as the Send with Gmail trick, make a new bookmarklet and name it Download Youtube

In the URL field, copy and paste the following code in:

javascript:window.location.href=’http://youtube.com/get_video?video_id=’ + swfArgs['video_id'] + “&l=” + swfArgs['l'] + “&sk=” + swfArgs['sk'] + ‘&fmt_map’ + swfArgs['fmt_map'] + ‘&t=’ + swfArgs['t'];

Now go to Youtube and watch any video. Click the Download Youtube bookmarklet and it will save the current video to your hard drive. Remember to add a .flv extension to the downloaded video.

8 ) Zoom in/out

For those who find that the font is too big/small for your viewing, you can zoom in/out the page by pressing Ctrl + Mousewheel.

9) Drag and drop tab to load in a new window

When you have more than one tabs, you can easily drag any tab and drop it on the menu bar to load a new window.

10) Install Greasemonkey on Chrome

Although Greasemonkey is an addon for Firefox, you can easily get it to work in Chrome with this simple tweak:

Drag this Monkey to your Chrome bookmark bar.

This Monkey bokmarklet will enable any userscripts to be automatically turned into bookmarklets.

To install Greasemonkey script on Google Chrome, go to user script and search for the Greasemonkey script you want. Visit the installation script page which says “install the script” and click on the Monkey bookmarklet, this will change the script into Chrome compatible bookmarklet. Now drag “Install the script” onto the bookmark bar of chrome.

Refurbished Laptop Computers- Upgrade Or Purchase New?

From: http://www.wazzup.co.nz

It happens at least once in the life of every notebook computer-it slows down in performance, and just doesn?t have the get up and go that it used to. Like most people, you run your favorite antivirus program(s) to make sure that ?bugs? haven?t infected your system, and you even run spyware programs to make sure that spyware isn?t overloading your system resources. To take things a step further you clear out unnecessary items from your start menu, make bios adjustments and get rid of old programs you haven?t used in a while.

After all that, your laptop computer still runs slow and you realize - it?s time for an upgrade.

Once upon a time, laptop and notebook upgrades were considered ?technician only? activities because of the fact most notebook manufacturers have proprietary technologies in their systems. That is still true to some extent, but the main hardware components affecting system performance in most laptops are those that have become pretty much industry standard. These are:

1.) Hard Drive 2.) Memory 3.)Processor

These components can be easily replaced in most notebooks. The first thing to do however is to determine if the upgrade is worth the cost. Check prices online to see how much it will cost. If I pay $120 for a hard drive, $50 for memory and $150 for a new processor, it may not make sense to do all three upgrades, I may only want to choose 1 at first and then check system performance.

If my laptop wasn?t very expensive to begin with, I may want to consider just purchasing another one. If I can get a Refurbished Windows Vista HP laptop for $499.00, that may make more sense than upgrading components on an older system.

CNET.com offers an online course on how to upgrade a used notebook computer step by step. Check it out and determine which option is right for you.

IP Addres “What is it and How to Change it”

IP Address (Internet Protocol Address) is a row of binary numbers between 32 bit, until 128 bit. IP address is used as an identification address for each host computer in a network system.

How to see my IP Address?

It’s easy to see your IP Address of your computer. First, you need to click Windows and then go to run, type cmd. On cmd, type ipconfig and you will see your IP Address. Don’t forget to add ‘/all’ switch for more information about your IP Address.

"How do I change my IP address?"

Before trying any other methods to change your IP address, try turning off (or unplugging the power of) your Cable/DSL modem for five minutes. In many cases this will change your IP address. However, if that does not change your IP address, repeat the process for 8 hours (overnight works well) instead of 5 minutes. Hopefully this will result in an IP change.

If the above does not result in your IP address changing, please look through the below for the situation that best matches yours and attempt to change your IP address that way. Unfortunately you are not able to get your IP address to change in all cases, as it is ultimate determined by your ISP's DHCP configuration (when you've got a dynamically assigned IP address, that is.)

Windows - Computer connected directly to the modem

1. Get to a command prompt. (START, run, cmd).
   
2. Type "ipconfig /release" (without the quotes, on the command line by itself).
3. Type "ipconfig /renew" (without the quotes, on the command line by itself).

Windows (second option) - Computer connected directly to the modem

1. Get to a command prompt. (START, run, cmd).
2. Type "ipconfig /release" (without the quotes).
3. Shut down computer.
4. Turn off computer.
5. Turn off all ethernet hubs/switches.
6. Turn off cable/DSL modem.
7. Leave off overnight.
8. Turn everything back on.

Network with Router

1. Log into the router's admin console. (Often http://192.168.1.1/)
2. Release the IP address. (Method varies by router manufacturer)
3. Turn off router, ethernet hubs/switches, and the cable/DSL modem.
4. Leave off overnight.
5. Turn everything back on.

If you are using a cable/DSL modem and a router, you may wish to connect your computer directly to the cable/DSL modem. Please note that this could significantly impact your system security. This allows your ISP's DHCP to issue you a new (hopefully changed) IP address based of the (hardware) MAC address of your computer's ethernet card.

If all the above has not worked to change your IP address and you have a router, check and see if there is a "Clone MAC Address" option. Using it should change your IP address; however, you'll only be able to do it once (in most cases).

These will not work in all cases. If all else fails contact your internet service provider (ISP) and ask them if they are able to change your IP address or how long your connection needs to be off for your IP address to change.

Partitioning your Hard Drive

For people who have computers, surely they don’t want to have only a hard drive in their computers. Instead, they need some hard drive (commonly 2 or 3) in their computer, so they can group their private data, system files, or their other stuff. So, an ability to partition hard drive is needed in order to group your stuff in your computer.

Disk partitioning is the creation of separate divisions of a hard disk drive using partition editors. Once a disk is divided into several partitions, directories and files of different categories may be stored in different partitions. More partitions provide more control but too many become cumbersome. The way space management, access permissions and directory searching are implemented depends upon the type of file system installed on a partition. Careful consideration of the size of the partition is necessary as the ability to change the size depends on the file system installed on the partition.

Partitioning your Hard Drive in Windows XP & Windows 2000:

1. Right click on My Computer, then click Manage
2. Then, Windows will open up Manage Screen. On the left pane, select Disk Management
3. Usually, Windows will open up wizard to help partition and format your new drive. If it does not, right click the new drive in the lower pane and select initialize drive.

1. Right click on the new drive and select new partition
2. Then it will open up a wizard to help you partition your hard drive.
3. In this step it will then prompt you how much drive space you want to allocate to the new partition.
4. If you choose not to use the full space of your main hard drive for your new partition disk, you can make up additional partition in the same way up to 4 partition hard drive per disk.
5. If you have done, you will be asked to name your partition. (C: , D: )
6. After you named all of your partition, you have to format your new partition hard drive, which Windows will prompt to do automatically.
7. If the formatting is complete, you have to reboot your computer to see the result.

Add New Item to Send To Menu

When you right-click a file name or a thumbnail in Microsoft Windows XP, you see a shortcut menu for that file. One of the items on the menu is Send To, which enables you to quickly e-mail a file, copy it to your desktop, or copy it to a floppy disk.

Sometimes what you really want to do is to save a copy of the file to a specific folder on your computer. If you have a folder where you frequently place files, you can add that folder’s name to the list of locations on the Send To menu. This can save you the time of opening another Windows Explorer window and copying the file from one folder to another.

For example, you could create a My Pictures folder and then use the Send To menu to copy your best pictures to that folder.
