5. Click on the Key HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Folder\shell\NewKey
6. Add a New Key named Command
7. Set the (Default) value of the application you want to run
8. For example: c:\program files\internet explorer\iexplore.exe (Include the full path and parameters if you need them)

nice trick to hide files inside a picture


1. Gather all the files that you wish to hide in a folder anywhere in your PC (make it in C:\hidden - RECOMMENDED).

2. Now, add those files in a RAR archive (e.g. secret.rar). This file should also be in the same directory (C:\hidden).

3. Now, look for a simple JPEG picture file (e.g. logo.jpg). Copy/Paste that file also in C:\hidden.

4. Now, open Command Prompt (Go to Run and type ‘cmd‘). Make your working directory C:\hidden.

5. Now type: “COPY /b logo.jpg + secret.rar output.jpg” (without quotes) - Now, logo.jpg is the picture you want to show, secret.rar is the file to be hidden, and output.jpg is the file which contains both. :D

6. Now, after you have done this, you will see a file output.jpg in C:\hidden. Open it (double-click) and it will show the picture you wanted to show. Now try opening the same file with WinRAR, it will show the hidden archive .

Display message on start up.

Start regedit, if you are unfamiliar with regedit please see our FAQ.

    Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon
    Modify the key legalnoticecaption with what you want to name the window.
    Modify the key legalnoticetext with what you want the window to say. Restart

Speed up ur acrobat reader (almost like notepad)

Do u get irritated when acrobat reader takes 5/10 seconds to load when you want to open a pdf document. There is a way to speed up the loading.

1. Go to the installation folder of acrobat reader
(C:\program files\adobe\acrobat\reader\.. whatever)

2. Move all the files and folders from the "plugins" directory to the "Optional" directory. (I repeat.. cut and paste the files NOT copy & paste).

Also make sure that acrobat reader is not open else it will lock the files and not allow you to move the files).

Now your acrobat reader will load very fast
and almost as good as notepad..

"ren games.{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E} games" in dos or as a bat file

You can do same by configuring the script to change the NUM LOCK state. Click Start button and then open Notepad. Copy the giving code and paste in Notepad.

set WshShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")

WshShell.SendKeys "{NUMLOCK}"

Now save this file with name "num.vbs" must including the quotes. At the end copy this file to user startup folder. The path for this folder is Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Startup.

Now restart the computer. Num Lock should come on and stay on.

Short cut for opening "Add or Remove Programs" window is



1. Open Run

2. Type appwiz.cpl

Locking Folders without any third party software


Consider you want to lock a folder named in your E:\, whose path is E:\.
Now open the Notepad and type the following

ren .{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}

Where is your folder name. Save the text file as loc.bat in the same drive.
Open another new notepad text file and type the following

ren .{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}

Save the text file as key.bat in the same drive.
Steps to lock the folder:

To lock the folder, simply click the loc.bat and it will transform into control panel icon which is inaccessible.
To unlock the folder click the key.bat file. Thus the folder will be unlocked and the contents are accessible

PS: This is not worked fine in my system. But My Friend still arguing with me that this trick is working fine for him. So I thought Posting it here will be useful for others.

For Task manager:



CTRL + SHIFT + ESC

Very Very informative tHread... If we can handle this properly.

Backup your computer files

Now days it is just so easy to backup your computer files. In the old days it was a nightmare as even hard drives themselves were not even big. It was crazy to see one simple game needing eight floppy disks to store it on. Oh boy were we keen in those days. I am thankful that those days are over.

In 2011, as technology has developed, most people can easily afford the devices needed to backup your computer files. In fact technology is so cheap, that you could probably backup five other peoples computers as well.

Backup storage devices
Second hard drive installed
You can just simply buy a hard drive and install it as a second hard drive into your desktop computer.
You will need to see if your computer has SATA connections or the older type IDE connections.


External hard drive
If you have not got yourself an external hard drive yet then what is your excuse?These are great for storing files on and they will not crash when your computer does as they are classed as a separate thing.

USB flash drive
Yes even a mere USB flash drive is OK to use for backup providing that it is big enough to hold your files.
This is best for office files that do not take up too much room.

Why install a firewall?

A firewall protects you against a number of different online threats:

 --Hackers breaking into your computer.
 --Some viruses, called “worms,” that spread from computer to computer over the internet.
 --Some firewalls block outgoing traffic that might originate from a virus infection.
