Easy way to convert Word, PDF, Image, Web and Excel Documents

No comments
We all know how annoying it is when we are sent a Word document and we open it in Adobe, or if we are sent a PDF document and we try to open it in Word, and all you get is a jumbled mash of pictures, a messed up layout and sometimes a completely different language. It is simply a pain to try and convert every single document into another format simply so that we can read its contents in the manner in which it is meant to be read. There are so many online tools that offer this services but believe me,  all they are after is to have access to your email address, take you as a customer and not to help you.
So many might request for money before they will render this service but docs.zone will offer it even if they will request for money, you'll still be able to convert for free by following the below steps.
Visit docs.zone

See the area marked red in the above screenshot. Locate that  part when your browser opens and select your desired conversion link.

How to continue converting after exceeding your free trial...

What docs.com does immediate you visit the website is to track you. So in order to continue using their service freely, you have to permit the website to track you first, disconnect it (not closing your browser) and continue. This below image will pop - up after you might have exceeded the  limit of free conversion.
After seeing the above image, close it. On your keyboard, press ctrl + shift + delete (on mozilla, google chrome or internet explorer) and clear all browsing history including all cookies.

Google to Stop Chrome support on Windows XP at year's end

No comments
windows-xp

Google on Thursday announced it will shut down support for Chrome on Windows XP at the end of the year.

"We will continue to provide regular updates and security patches to Chrome on XP through the end of 2015," said Mark Larson, Chrome's director of engineering, in a short blog post Thursday.

A year and a half ago, Larson pledged to support Chrome on the even-then-aged operating system until "at least April 2015."

"We know that not everyone can easily switch to a newer operating system," Larson said of Google's decision to continue supporting Chrome on XP after the latter's retirement. "Millions of people are still working on XP computers every day [and] we want those people to have the option to use a browser that's up-to-date and as safe as possible on an unsupported operating system."

But enough was apparently enough.

Microsoft called it quits on Windows XP a year ago Tuesday, when it issued the final scheduled security updates for the 2001 OS. (The company made a one-time exception shortly thereafter when it shipped an emergency patch for its Internet Explorer (IE) browser.)

Because Microsoft halted security fixes for IE on Windows XP on April 14, 2014, security professionals urged the OS's users to switch to another browser. Dropping IE for Chrome, Mozilla's Firefox or Opera Software's Opera was one way to minimize -- but not eliminate -- risk, they said.

Neither Mozilla or Opera have publicized end-of-support dates for their browsers on Windows XP.

According to Web metrics vendor Net Applications, approximately 18.5% of all Windows PCs ran XP in March, slightly more than half the 34.5% the OS accounted for in October 2013, when Larson set Chrome's earliest support demise at this month.

Difference between Delete Key and Backspace on your keyboard

No comments
keyboard DELETE and BACKSPACE
You might have been wondering why there are two delete keys on the keyboard! The truth is, they may look similar with ordinary look and functions might look the same at time but they are not the same.
Delete and Backspace function
"The Backspace Key" clears alphanumerical values, letters or images to the left from where the cursor is placed. From the above scenario, if we should press the backspace key, these following letters will be cleared ; o, s, t, r, a, p which forms "Parts o".
Similarly, if we should press the "Delete Key", the letters will be cleared to the right of where our cursor is placed. Thereby clearing "f a naijaconfirm".

The administrator account is a hidden, disabled and built-in account with Windows 7/Vista/xp. But a user can enable this account for some special actions. Such as troubleshooting, installing harmful software or some special networking tasks. By default, most of the user accounts are a part/member of the Administrator account. Others are standard accounts without being any part of an administrator account.


Windows disabled this account to prevent malicious programs and harmful activities on the system. So any special task of system needs administrative privilege and the annoying UAC (User Account Control) bar will pop up for the users, except the administrator account.

Method#1. Using command prompt:

Search cmd.exe in start menu and run cmd.exe as administrator.

Expand the Local users and Groups arrow and select Users. Then, From the right pane, double-click on the Administrator.
Local users and Groups > Users & Administrator  
Un-check the "Account is disable" and it should be look like below.
