You can enable or disable the program by right clicking on it and selecting “Enabled” option....

We’ve previously mentioned how Xmarks could efficiently sync your bookmarks across different browsers. It’s an amazing tool that I use every day, because I use both Firefox and Chrome as my primary browsers. Unfortunately, Xmarks will cease operations on January 10, 2011. The company announced the news today in a blog post saying that they had to make that decision due to financial difficulties. It’s sad because I don’t think there’s any other tool that is as good as Xmarks in what it does....

Open a new Notepad (btw, if you hate the default Windows Notepad, here some useful Notepad alternatives) file and copy-paste the following code (for Windows PCs only): Save the file as “desktop.ini” in your flash drive. Also, save “your_picture.jpg” (i.e. the background picture) in your USB Drive then hide it by going into the file properties dialog box.

In the past, I have discussed about an Android app that lets you play YouTube videos in the background, the feature that is not supported by the official YouTube app. However, when I gave the idea a second thought, I could see one major loophole in it. The thing is, if at all we are playing the video in the background which would mean we are not really interested in the video and only want to listen to the audio, what’s the point in wasting the bandwidth in streaming them?...

Thanks to Sheet’s support for add-ons and functions, this process can be taken care of in mere seconds....

switch between running tasks and do multiple jobs without wasting time. The smartphones that come with dedicated soft key task switcher can easily switch between any running task in the background.

When you have to switch between the apps more frequently, even a trivial and quick action like the long press of the home button can get annoying....

The default camera app on most of the other devices lacks these features.

So today I will talk about three alternatives you can install on your Android phones and get these advanced features while taking a photograph....

There are many tools available for customization in Windows 7, 8 and 8.1. No specific tools have yet been developed for customizing Windows 10. The below tools are updated versions (compatible with Windows 10) and some are not (but, they work). I’d still recommend you to take a System backup before performing any tweaks. By the way, there weren’t any damaging issues in my usage. So, it’s safe to proceed....

A hidden network doesn’t essentially mean that it is secure. It is just a way to prevent the network from reaching all the users looking for a Wi-Fi connection. Well, the significant difference between hidden Wi-Fi and a normal one is that with hidden Wi-Fi, you will need to know the name and password of the Wi-Fi. In contrast, on a non-hidden Wi-Fi network, all you need to have is its password....

Until a few years ago, wireless Bluetooth speakers with microphones were a common thing. However, now things have changed, and a few of the makers have stopped adding this nifty feature. If you look around, the new launches like the JBL Flip 5 or the UE Wonderboom do not have a built-in microphone. Luckily, there are still a few Bluetooth speakers that come with built-in mics. These mics pick up your voice well so that you can carry on your phone calls at times....
