Creating Guest account in GoogleChrome

Usually a lot of people like family members,friends will be using our computers and they will also be using the browsers.Usually people choose a Google account to sync their Data,Bookmarks and we don't want our family members or friends data to be synced to our accounts.

So,we can add guest accounts in Google Chrome and can create a separate user and have their data and bookmarks synced with their accounts.Doing so,we eliminate omnibox suggestions and history to the users of computer.Also there is no need to logoff and go to guest account in our computer.

Creating Guest account/adding new users:

  1. Goto settings.
     
  2. Locate Users.

  3. click on the Add new user button.

  4. Choose a name and picture to the guest account and click on create and a desktop shortcut to new user will be added automatically.

Listen to webpages in Google Chrome

All of us will be reading a lot of articles on internet.But sometimes we may get tired reading lengthy articles or may be the fonts don't appeal to us.Our eyes may feel strain reading lengthy articles and we may feel if someone could read the article and tell us the matter in it.

So,here is a wonderful extension for GoogleChrome that helps users in reading out the content of the webpages.All you need to do is to highlight the content you want to hear.Then,click on the speaker icon after address bar.The extension internally uses chrome's Text-to-Speech API for reading the content loud.

Restart browser after installing this extension to work.

This extension cannot work on encrypted web pages.( https connection).


The extension supports nearly 50 languages and detects them automatically.

Emails are the convenient and easiest way to communicate with friends or family members.Friends and Family members may be staying in different parts of country or world.So,it would feel good if we communicate with them in their local language.Sometimes,finding the right words and typing them becomes difficult.

Search for any file in your computer very fast

Every one of us usually be downloading Movies,Pictures,Songs or will be getting files from our friends and we sometimes forget where we have kept them in our computer.

Sometimes some of the DLL files required to start the game might be missing but they will be somewhere in the computer only in other directories.

If we are going to search our computer for that file using the default windows search,the chances are less to trace  the file.

So,there is a software that can efficiently search all files / folders / archives in your computer with in no time.It is EVERYTHING.The software displays all your files at a place.When you search for a file it displays all the files containing part of the name of the file,be it at starting,or middle or ending with in seconds.

Highly useful tool for searching in unorganised computers or for game files.

Support : Windows 2000, XP, 2003, Vista, 2008, Windows 7 and Windows 8.

Note : LINUX users can also make use of this software by using WINE and formatting their drives
            with NTFS file system.

Retrieving data from pendrive containing shortcut files

Often people see that the data in their pen-drives are converted into shortcuts making them unable to see the data.It is due to virus which is changing the permissions to the files in the drive.It can be observed that capacity of the pen-drive is occupied but the files are not visible.

Then in that case just perform these steps to retrieve back your original data.
  1. Go to command prompt (win+R ->cmd)
  2. Go to the directory of pen-drive (If it is G: drive, then type G: and hit enter)
  3. now run the following command.
  4. attrib /s /d -r -a -s -h * Now you can see that the data in your pen-drive is visible.
    Have a backup of that data and format the drive and use it further. :)
