#1 Make Undeletable, Unrenamable Folders

Basic Concept

The basic concept behind this trick is the use of Keywords. Keywords are reserved words in any
programming language that cannot be used as names of variables. Windows also uses certain
keywords in its programming. Some of them are con, aux, lpt1, lpt2, lpt3, lpt4, lpt5, lpt6, lpt7, lpt8
and lpt9.

Trick
So the question arises, how can we make a folder with a keyword as its name? The solution to this
problem is included in Windows itself. As we know that Windows has evolved from D.O.S.(Disk
Operating System), its commands can be used in Windows. You can use D.O.S. Programming in
Windows to create a folder with a keyword as its name using the steps given below:-

1. Click on Start.

2. Click on Run. Type in "cmd" without quotes.

3. In the Command Prompt Window that opens, type the name of the drive you wish to create your
folder in the format <drive-name>: and press Enter. e.g. If you wish to create the undeletable folder
in D drive, type "D:" without the quotes. Note that the folder cannot be created in the root of C:
drive (if C: is your system drive).

4. Type this command- "md con\" or "md lpt1\" without the quotes and press Enter. You can choose
any of the keywords given above as the name of your folder.

Now Windows will create an undeletable, unrenamable folder in the drive you entered in Step 3.
However, the folder can be renamed to another keyword using Windows Explorer.

Deleting the Folder

Although, it is not possible to manually delete the folder, you can delete the folder by typing "rd
con\" or "rd lpt1\" in Step 4 instead of "md con\" or "md lpt1\".

Windows Compatibility: This works on Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8 and
Windows 8.1.

Try it yourself to create one such folder which can neither be deleted nor be renamed.

#2 Shutdown Your Computer or a Remote PC via Command Prompt

Required
A computer running Windows (XP, Vista, 7, 8 or 8.1) with the command prompt working perfectly,
i.e. not disabled by a virus.

Name: shutdown-command-prompt.jpg

Views: 672

Size: 21.9 KB

Initial Steps

1) Press Windows Key + R.

2) Enter CMD and press Enter.

This will start the command prompt. Follow the instructions below depending on what you want to
do.

Shutdown Local Machine (Your Computer)

Type "shutdown -s" without the quotes in the command prompt and press Enter. Shutdown is the
command being executed and the switch -s tells the computer to shutdown.

Restart your Local Computer

Type "shutdown -r" in the command prompt and press Enter. In this case, the command switch -r is
telling the computer to restart after shutdown.

Log Off the Current User

Type "shutdown -l" in the command prompt and press Enter. The -l command switch tells the
computer to log off.

Shutdown a Remote Computer

Type "shutdown -s -m \\name of the computer" in the command prompt and press Enter. Replace
\\name of the computer with the actual name of the remote computer you are trying to shutdown.
As mentioned earlier, you must have administrative access to the computer you are trying to
shutdown. To know if you have administrative access, press Windows key + R and then type the
name of the computer and press Enter.
Note: If you don't remember the name of the remote computer, you can look for it by opening a list
of all the computers you are connected to by executing "net view" in command prompt.

If you can connect to the computer, you will be asked to login with your username and password.
Upon entering them, a window will display the list of all the directories available to you. This should
help you know whether you can or cannot shutdown the remote computer.

Hibernate a Local Computer

Type in "Rundll32.exe Powrprof.dll,SetSuspendState" without the quotes and press Enter. Your
computer should hibernate, if it does not, then you must enable hibernation to do this.

Shutdown your or a remote computer after a specific time

Type "shutdown -s -t 60" to shutdown your computer after 60 seconds. Upon executing this, a
countdown timer displaying a warning message will be shown. This command uses the -t command
switch followed by a variable (which is 60 in this case) which represents the number of seconds after
which the computer will shutdown.

Display a Message containing the reason for shutdown

Type shutdown -s -t 500 -c "I am tired. I don't want to work anymore." (with the quotes) in the
Command Prompt and press Enter. The -c switch is used in the code to give the reason for shutting
down and what is followed in quotes will be displayed in the dialog box as the reason. This can be
used to display all sorts of funny messages. One example :-

Skynet has become self aware. John Connor did not stop me. You can not use your PC anymore.

Stop a System Shutdown

Type "shutdown -a" and press Enter. This will stop the system from shutting down if the countdown
to shut down has not reached 0.

#4 Recover Deleted files in Windows with Free Tools

Name: recover-deleted-files.jpg

Views: 17889

Size: 4.4 KB

Have you ever deleted a file that you did not wish to and wanted to recover it but did not find it in
the recycle bin? You probably deleted it permanently with Shift+Delete or emptied the Recycle Bin.
Now what? Don't worry, you may still have a chance to get it back. This article lists some free
software that can recover deleted files from your hard drive or any other storage device instantly.

But how do the software mentioned below undelete deleted files?

When files are deleted, Windows does not delete them from your hard disk. It marks the storage
space as empty for new data to be written and deletes the index entry that tells the location of those
files. Unless, new files are written on that space, the deleted files are still recoverable. That's what
allows these software to recover deleted files.

There are many free software that allow users to do this. Some of them are given below:-
1) Pandora RecoveryName: Deleted-files-back.PNG

Views: 17875

Size: 7.9 KB

recover deleted files in WindowsPandora Recovery is a free software that offers a wizard based
interface for recovering files. It allows you to browse a drive's individual folders to look for deleted
files. It also allows you search for a deleted file based on its name, file size, creation date and last
access time. Its deep scan allows you to recover files that other software might have missed.
Although deep scan does not return a file's original name and location, it still is effective to recover
data from drives with corrupted file tables and drives that were recently formatted. It can even
recover data from CDs and DVDs.

2) TOKIWA DataRecoveryName: undelete-files-in-windows.PNG

Views: 17853

Size: 2.6 KB

At just over 200KB, TOKIWA DataRecovery is the smallest file recovery program in the market. It
supports undeletion from FAT 12, FAT16, FAT32 and NTFS file systems. It also supports recovering
NTFS compressed and EFS encrypted files. This software supports Windows and is portable as well. It
also has a file shredder that allows you to wipe out files in a manner that they cannot be recovered
again

3) RecuvaName: undelete-files.png

Views: 17860

Size: 8.6 KB

Another great freeware, Recuva offers a wizard based interface to unerase files. Recuva offers
scanning deleted files based on their type (music, pictures, videos etc.). It also allows deep scanning
in case a file you deleted is unrecoverable via normal search. Like TOKIWA DataRecovery, Recuva also
offers securely deleting files. Recuva also has a portable version that you can keep in your flash drive.

All of these recovery software support recovery from memory sticks, digital camera cards and MP3
players. They support undeleting all types of pictures, software, movies and documents from both
FAT and NTFS formatted drives. They work on Windows 8.1, Windows 8, Windows 7, Windows Vista
and Windows XP.

1) When a file is deleted accidentally on a storage device, make sure that you don't do anything on it
as doing that would increase the chances of new data being written over your deleted files; which
would make file recovery impossible.

2) If you have deleted files on your main computer (the one you are using right now), do not browse
the internet, download new software or shut it down. Keep it running and go to another computer,
download one of the software mentioned above that is portable and save it on a flash drive. Then
plugin the flash drive in your current system and perform file recovery. Regardless of whether you
accidentally delete files a lot or not, make sure to always have that software in your flash drive in
case you accidentally delete important files.

3) If one software fails to recover your deleted file, it does not mean that another one wouldn't
recover it to

Click image for larger version.

Name: cool_keyboard_tricks.JPG

Views: 22

Size: 11.4 KB

ID: 1070710

Keyboards usually have small LEDs which indicate whether different types of locks are activated

or not. Here is a trick to use the lights of your keyboard in a more creative manner in Windows.

This trick uses a simple Visual Basic Script which when activated makes your Scroll lock, Caps lock

and Num lock LEDs flash in a cool rhythmic way which gives the perception of a live disco on

your keyboard.

To make your own live disco, follow the steps given below:-

1. Open Notepad.

2. Copy paste the exact code given below:

Set wshShell =wscript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")

do
wscript.sleep 100

wshshell.sendkeys "{CAPSLOCK}"

wshshell.sendkeys "{NUMLOCK}"

wshshell.sendkeys "{SCROLLLOCK}"

loop

3. Save the file as Disco.vbs or "*.vbs".

Double click on the Saved file to see the LED lights on your keyboard go crazy and make your

own cool disco.

This trick has been tested on Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 8 and found

to be working perfectly.

You can disable the keyboard disco by starting Task Manager and ending

the wscript.exe process.

#8 Enable the Hidden Administrator Account on Windows 7, 8, 8.1 & 10

Windows automatically creates an Administrator account with elevated privileges during the

installation process. We mostly need to access it to perform tasks limited only to system

Administrators. These are tasks performing which result in the UAC asking for confirmation even
if you are using an account with administrative privileges. The elevated Administrator account is

disabled by default in Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 8.1, Windows 10 and Windows Vista

To activate it, you need to use any one of the the following simple methods.

Important: It is recommended to only use this account for

troubleshooting purposes and disable it once the task is complete. Even if you do leave it

enabled, protect it with a strong password to prevent unauthorized access.
