Remove read-only from all files in a folder

After copying a bunch of files to your Windows PC from a CD or DVD, you may discover that all the copied files carry the read-only flag. The most obvious way to remove the read-only flag from a file is to right-click on its icon, choose “Properties”, and uncheck the “Read-only” box. But what if you have hundreds, or even thousands of files marked read-only?

You can remove these read-only flag from multiple files using the attrib command from a command prompt. The Windows Command Line site has a tutorial on commands everyone can use, which includes an explanation of performing this task with the attrib command. The section on the attrib command is titled “Changing file attributes with ‘attrib’”, and is located about three quarters of the way down the page.

In short, first open the command prompt, press Ctrl+R and in the run box type cmd and enter. Navigate to their folder from a command prompt and type attrib -r ./*.* /s. For example if you want to do that for images, type this: attrib -r ./*.jpg /s.

Keyboard types over other words

Sometimes you may see that the words you are typing are being typed over the letters on the right of the cursor.

People frequently press the “Insert” key by accident, which puts your computer into a different mode of input. In this mode, everything you input is typed over anything that already exists to the right of the cursor.

The input mode you are used to inserts characters at the cursor and forces everything to the right over once space. Pressing the “Insert” key switches between these two input modes.

Find the “Insert” key on your keyboard. It is usually located to the right of the “Backspace” key, above the arrow keys. Press “Insert” once. Resume typing.

COM surrogate has stopped working

I personally got this problem, and after a bit of surfing on other sites, I found some ways to fix this problem. This usually happens when you browse a folder full of video or some media files and computer throws a dialogue box saying "COM surrogate has stopped working".

The reason behind this is the codecs and other COM components installed by various programs that aren't fully Vista-compatible, like some versions of DivX or Nero.

There are a number of possible solutions and the right solution for you would depend upon what software is actually causing the problem. DivX and Nero are the most well-known problem causing software.

Solutions

• If using DivX, upgrade it to latest version(6.8+)
• If using Nero, upgrade to its latest version(9+)
• You can also disable Thumbnail previews, it will surely make the problem go away but its not an optimal solution.
• Use a new codec pack http://ffdshow-tryout.sourceforge.net/
• If you'd like to uninstall Nero entirely, there is a utility that they provide to help with complete uninstall that helps a lot in instances where you have a bad installation of an older version. http://www.nero.com/nero7/eng/FAQs_Nero7_NeroVision.html
• Some users have recommended installing the Vista Codec Package in order to update all your codecs to the correct versions. I can't confirm that this works because I have not tried it myself. As always, be careful when installing unknown components and create a restore point.
• You can use the very useful MMCompView free utility from Nirsoft to disable any codecs on the system. This is very useful to help troubleshoot exactly which component is causing the problem.
• Use DEP
  Right click on Computer, and choose Properties
  Click on Advanced System Settings, and then under Advanced, click Settings
  Select the "Data Execution Protection" tab, and then click Turn on DEP for all programs and services except those I select?
  Click on the Add button, and then browse to C:\Windows\System32\dllhost.exe as shown
  Click Open, and then OK.

This should solve your problems.

"Disk is full/Not Enough Space" error even though space is available

Many of us must have encountered a situation, that while copying some files above 4gb, the windows informs that "Disk is full or Not enough space" and we shockingly check its properties which tell us something different.

The reason behind this problem is : FAT/FAT32, the default file system most portable hard disks are formatted with, do not support files larger than 4gb. Any attempt to transfer a file larger than this limit results in the "Disk is full" error. Thankfully after a bit of research i found out a way to change the formatting of a storage drive without actual format.

Some points to note though:

1) If you are using a portable media player, check to see that your player supports the NTFS file system. Sorry to say, but Ipod users, like me are out of luck, as the firmware does not support NTFS.

2) Conversion is a one-way format, meaning that once you make the switch to NTFS, you cannot go back to FAT/FAT 32.

If you are ready to make the jump to NTFS, follow these instructions, extracted from the Microsoft knowledge base.

How to convert a FAT volume or a FAT32 volume to NTFS

Note This method doesn't includes backing up your data and then again loading on that. The chance of data loss are minimal but I would recommend you backup your data before carrying out this method.

To convert an existing FAT or FAT32 volume to NTFS, follow these steps:

1. Click Ctrl+R to bring up run command, then type cmd and press enter, which will open command prompt for you.

2. At the command prompt, type the following, where drive letter is the drive that you want to convert (Read cmd tutorial to understand, how to change the drive):

convert drive letter: /fs:ntfs

For example, type the following command to convert drive E to NTFS:

convert e: /fs:ntfs

Note If the operating system is on the drive that you are converting, you will be prompted to schedule the task when you restart the computer because the conversion cannot be completed while the operating system is running. When you are prompted, click YES.

3. When you receive the following message at the command prompt, type the volume label of the drive that you are converting, and then press ENTER:

The type of the file system is FAT.

Enter the current volume label for drive drive letter

4. When the conversion to NTFS is complete, you receive the following message at the command prompt:

Conversion complete

5. Quit the command prompt.

and now try transferring that files.

Move your cursor without mouse

This is a very old and popular trick but recently I found out that many of my friends doesn't know about this feature. This feature may be used when you don't have a mouse or simply if your cat has swallowed up your mouse (just kiddin'). Though the well known Tab key may help you that time but everyone knows how hard is to work with that key. Now this tip will show you how to operate the mouse cursor without a mouse using the 'mousekeys'

Follow the given steps to activate the keyboard mouse:

First, of all you would need an account with administrative rights.

To activate this feature, press Alt+Shift+NumLock keys. A small MouseKey box will pop up.

Alternatively, you can navigate via:

Start -> All program -> Accessories -> Accessibility -> Accessibility Wizard

Click on Settings button if you need to adjust the mouse cursor detail settings.

After which, you will be presented with a dialog box and now you can manage all your "mouse settings" to adjust the acceleration and speed.

Controls for mouse corsor after mousekeys enabled:

-> 1,2,3,4,6,7,8 and 9 keys are used to move the mouse cursor into different

direction.

-> Key 5 is used as left click button.

-> Insert key used to hold down mouse button.

-> + Sign used to double click on any object.

-> Delete button used to release the mouse.

-> Click on NumLock button to disable this keyboard mouse feature.

That should solve your temporary need for a mouse. Cool na??

Cannot open a drive due to "Access is denied" message?

There is a virus (I can't recall which one), which prevents you from accessing your drives. Usually this happens to all the drives at once. It uses the autorun command. Now you will think it can be deleted manually, but the main part is it is hidden and if try to activate 'show hidden files' then you are wrong because it again deactivates that function and you can't see the file. To delete that file you have to do this

start>Run=type "CMD" without quotes and press enter.

follow these:

1. go to C:\ by typing C:\>cd c:\

2. type C:\>attrib -S -H -R autorun.inf

3. delete the file by typing C:\>del autorun.inf

4. goto drive D: by typing C:\>d:

5. repeat step 1,2 and 3 for all your drives (say you have C,D,E,F).

6. Close the DOS command window

7. Open task manager and "end task" the explorer.exe in the processes tab (don't worry about the blank screen)

8. From Application Tab in taskManager, select "new Task" button, type "explorer.exe"

Delete particular url from IE history

This is a simple trick I think most of us know but it may sound good for newbies or whoever don't have a idea about this trick. No need to delete complete history and type repeated url s again next time just for the sake of removing specific URL .

Go to:

Registry editor

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\TypedURLs

in the right pane you'll see the urls .. jus delete the one which you don't want to appear again in IE add bar.

Note::

Use registry editor carefully. Make a back up of the registry before carrying out any tweaks.

Clicking AVI Files causing 100% CPU Usage

Well windows seem to have a REALLY big problem when it comes to reading AVI files. It seems that when you click on an AVI file in explorer, it'll try to read the entire AVI file to determine the width,height, etc. of the AVI file (this is displayed in the Properties window). Now the problem with Windows is that if you have a broken/not fully downloaded AVI file that doesnt contain this info, Windows will scan the entire AVI file trying to figure out all these properties which in the process will probably cause 100% CPU usage and heavy memory usage.

To solve this problem all you have to do is the following:

1. Open up regedit

2. Goto HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\SystemFileAssociations\.avi\shellex\PropertyHandler

3. Delete the "Default" value which should be "{87D62D94-71B3-4b9a-9489-5FE6850DC73E}"

Voila! Please not that this will no longer provide you with the windows properties displaying the AVI file information such as width, height, bitrate etc. But its a small price to pay for saving you resources.

Note::

Use registry editor carefully. Make a back up of the registry before carrying out any tweaks.

Basics to Command Prompt

How to open command prompt:

Press ctrl+R to open up run command

Type 'cmd' and press enter to open the command prompt window.

To go UP:

Type 'cd..' and press enter

For example: If command prompt is showing

C:\Users\(username)> Type 'cd..' and press enter

now it will show

C:\Users>

To open a directory:

Type 'cd filename' and press enter

For example:To open 'Users' directory located in C:\ drive

Type 'cd users' and press enter

Now it will show

C:\Users>

To delete a directory:

Type 'del filename' and press enter

For example: To delete 'xyz.exe' located in C:\ drive

Type 'del xyz.exe' and press enter

To change the drive:

Type 'drive letter:'

For examle: To change the drive to D:\

Type 'D:' and press enter.

And now it will show 'D:\>'

Exporting a registry

We all know tweaking with registry is so much fun. But if this tweaking is done improperly, it may cause some programs to malfunction. So Play Safe, make a backup copy of registry before carrying out any of the tweaks.

Exporting the registry(making a back up copy):

First press ctrl+R to open up Run command.

Now type 'regedit' (without quotes) and press enter.

In the registry editor screen, file>export.

Select 'export range' as all and save it as .reg

Now carry out any tweaks you want and in the middle if anything goes wrong simply import the file you have saved.

Importing the registry:

Simply open the .reg file you have saved.

or, in the registry editor click file>import and select he file you want to import.

i want to hide my files in an image

So, even you want to hide your files, but with some extra privacy. This method will hide your files in an image. Though the image will look the same but its size will increase to the size of your files.

 

 1. Gather the file you wish to bind, and the image file, and place them in a folder. For the sake of this demonstration, I will be using C:\New Folder

-The image will hereby be referred to in all examples as fluffy.jpg

-The file will hereby be referred to in all examples as New Text Document.txt

2. Add the file/files you will be injecting into the image into a WinRar .rar or .zip. From here on this will be referred to as (secret.rar)

3. Open command prompt by going to Start > Run > cmd

4. In Command Prompt, navigate to the folder where your two files are by typing

cd location [ex: cd C:\New Folder][see cmd tutorial for more details on how to use cmd]

5. Type [copy /b fluffy.jpg + secret.rar fluffy.jpg] (I ahve used brackets to differentiate the texts, don't use brackets)

Congrats, as far as anyone viewing is concerned, this file looks like a JPEG, acts like a JPEG, and is a JPEG, yet it now contains your file.

In order to view/extract your file, there are two options that you can take

a) Change the file extension from fluffy.jpg to fluffy.rar, then open and your file is there.

b) Leave the file extension as is, right click, open with WinRar and your file is there.

Do not install kb931573 update

Well every pirated vista user is saying samething"Do not install kb931573 update". Let's talk something about this update, this update actually says

 "Install this update to resolve an issue where you may be prompted to activate a pre-installed copy of Windows Vista. After you install this item, you may have to restart your computer"
but it actually deactivates the pirated vistas and gives a 30 days notice to re-activate. And as usual this effort went waste, as these users are simply not installing this update. And by mistake if anyone install it, they simply use some cracks to re-activate without spendng even a single penny.

And as usual I would recommend everyone to use a genuine microsoft and even other softwares. Don't use pirated ones.

TRICKS to Recover the lost administrator's password

Slightly more work needed if you lose or forget the Windows XP administrator password.

1.First reboot Windows XP in safe mode by re-starting the computer and pressing F8 repeated as the computer starts up.

2.Then (in safe mode) click Start and then click Run. In the open box type "control userpasswords2" without the quotes - I have just used quotes to differentiate what you have to type.

3.You will now have access to all the user accounts, including the administrators account and will be able to reset the lost password.

4.Just click the administrators user account, and then click Reset Password.

5.You will need to add a new password in the New password and the Confirm new password boxes, and confirm by clicking OK.All done, you have recovered the lost adminitrators password!

Secure your data with an image as password

If you're worried about the safety of your documents you should start using some encryption method to protect them.

PixelCryptor is probably one of the best options for your first steps into encryption. It enables you to protect your private documents by combining them into a package that is then encrypted with any photo of your choice.

The pixel data contained in this photo is what the program uses to protect your documents, by creating almost endless, hacker-proof combinations. And whenever you want to decrypt your documents, simply open the package with your documents and select the picture you used to encrypt it.

PixelCryptor may not offer as many security options and encryption methods as other tools, but it's very easy to use and probably the best choice for encryption newbies. On the downside, anyone who you're sending encrypted data too will need to have it installed.

This should be noted that, if the image used as a password is damaged or edited then the encrypted data is irrecoverable.

PixelCryptor is a fairly basic encryption tool, mainly addressed at novice users, which uses images to encrypt confidential data.

Make the DVD drive go in and out

This trick will make your dvd drive go in and out automatically. However this may not work in laptops as once the drive is opened it has to be closed manually, but this will work in a different way if any one try to close the drive in laptops it will open automatically.

Delete: Access denied files

There are many times when you try to delete a file and it throws a message on you saying

"Cannot delete file: Access is denied"

 

There has been a sharing violation.

The source or destination file may be in use.

The file is in use by another program or user.

Make sure the disk is not full or write-protected and that the file is not currently in use.

So if the file is in use, how do you delete it?

# Click on Start, Search, All Files and Folders

# Type the name of the undeletable file in the box shown

# Make sure the Look In box shows the correct drive letter

# Click Search and let the computer find the file

# Once the file is located, right-click on it and choose properties, make a note of the file location. Usually this is something similar to

c:\windows\system32\undeleteablefilesname.exe

# Close the search box

# Click on Start, Run, and type CMD and Press Enter to open a Command Prompt window

# Leave the Command Prompt window open, but proceed to close all other open programs

# Click on Start, Run and type TASKMGR.EXE and press Enter to start Task Manager

# Click on the Processes tab, click on the process named Explorer.exe and click on End Process.

# Don't worry about the blank screen.

# Minimize Task Manager but leave it open

# Go back to the Command Prompt window and change to the directory where the file is located. To do this, use the CD command. See the cmd tutorial for more details. You can follow the example below.

Example: to change to the Windows\System32 directory you would enter the following command and Press Enter

cd \windows\system32

# Now use the DEL command to delete the offending file. Type DEL where is the file you wish to delete.

Example: del undeletable.exe

# Use ALT-TAB to go back to Task Manager

# In Task Manager, click File, New Task and enter EXPLORER.EXE to restart the Windows shell.
