Satisfy Urself (part 2)

Lovely sunrise ,cool weather,absolute silence ,my mom's suprabatam (urging me to brush ..) ,it is 6.30 in the morning wowwwwwww! a perfect time to carve yet an another  useful post (hope you find it useful).  In this technological savvy (hope I got that word correct.) where the new technology is exponentially increasing ,many 0-day exploits are outbreaking..amidst of all these you need to keep urself i mean ur personal stuff and ur pc safe.Having a pc guy who could solve your problems is not feasible solution everytime ..of course I am always there to help out you guys..But still everybody must be able to perform atleast basic troubleshooting steps.So let's start our discussion with basic troubleshooting and later I'll divert you to some Windows hidden programs .(kool stuff)

1.Every computer running windows has specific set of rules which they abide to . All these rules can be managed through Group Policy reckoned as most hardest topic on my mcse exam.

       a.Disabling/enabling   control panel

       b.d/e security center

       c.d/e media player

       d.d/e task manager

      etc ................   all the above tasks and many other tasks can be performed through modifying group policy settings.

     open run dialog box ( win+r ) >> type "gpedit.msc" without quotes >>go through these setting ..self explanatory stuff

2.Computer management : Monitoring user profiles,groups,disk mgmt (formatting stuff),disk fragmentation,device manager,event viewer,performance logs etc etcc can be accessed via computer management console.

    open run>>type "compmgmt.msc">> change the settings.

3. regedit : though u need some expertise for using this tool , still comes very handy for complex troubleshooting .. always backup your registry when the system is in stable state.

4.services: guess why your system has become very slow ?? its because of the number of services running have increased

  run >>"services.msc">>disable unwanted services .

Some xp/2003 hidden programs: Some may not be included in modified versions of windows. Open run dialog box and type these commands.

1.winchat.exe : Used for Lan chatting .. U may use them in our labs also for chatting.
2.iexpress.exe:a custom .msi creator which makes ur files into install based versions . pretty koolllllll!
3.eudcedit.exe : another alternate for paint
4.perfmon.exe : used to see performance stats and counters of your PC. Useful if your palling for new hardware.
5.rasphone.exe : A custom dialer utility which integrates with your network connection.

 

Thank you for readingg  . Njoy the lovely day.
