Earlier I wrote about making a shortcut for XP and other Windows version that you can get here. In windows 7 they gave a very good feature that is assigning a shortcut key for any application. Using this feature you can assign a shortcut key combination to any application for opening it with least effort and shortest time.

If I talk about myself I have assigned shortcut key ctrl+alt+o for outlook ctrl+alt+n for notepad and many other key combinations for multiple regular used application. Assigning key combination is as simple as using any application by mouse.

Here is short procedure for that.

1) Click on start--> all programs -->application right click on application shortcut and click on properties.

Folder and file name including drive is turning blue

One of my very friends called me and told me he is getting this issue in his computer.

He find that files and folder in his computer in C drive are turning blue and he is suspicious about virus is a reason for this. He told me he find same issue once before also and he ended up with loss of document and complete pc Formatting but he is getting this problem again.

I assured him that there is no virus in his commuter and it’s a simple functionality of Windows XP. This functionality compress old file and folder and turn them in blue.

For solution of this problem here is a solution.

1) rite click on drive that is turning blue and click on properties

2) It will open a window as bellow

3) In above image you can See that check box at compress drive to save disk space is checked.
4) Remove that check box and click on apply and it will ask you to apply the changes on drive only or drive plus folder subfolder and files also.

5) Make sure to click on apply changes to drive, subfolder and files.

It will take some time to convert and uncompress all the files and folder and then you will not have problem of files and folder name turning blue.

I hope it was useful for you

I installed windows 7 on my desktop few days back and it’s running smoothly but it has one problem as well. While working screen of my windows 7machine start flickering by it and when I click on any of the application it stop flickering.

I have few other Windows 7 Machines in my office and I never received this problem from any of Windows 7 User but yesterday one Windows 7 User came to me and complained me that his computer screen suddenly starts flickering and that it again stop in some time.

I said I do have same problem and give me couple of minute to find the solution. I searched on net but found no easy way to get rid of this problem. I assumed it as problem of Display driver so I thought to check update my windows 7 computer and when I checked I found in optional update it had 2 drivers on it, first was for my Samsung Sync Monitor and other one was display driver for my Intel DQ965 Mother board.

I installed these updates restarted my computer and after that I have not received annoying screen flickering problem again even for once.

I applied same changes for my other team member also who complained me for screen flickering and it worked well.

So if you have problem of Random Screen Flickering in Windows 7 you don’t need to worry about any thing. Go to windows update setting check for update go to optional component find display driver update for your display and install it.

After that you will not have this problem again.

I have tested it on different machines and it worked fine for me.

If you find any issue in this or if you find it not working please do let me know on my mail. guddu.dreamsatt@gmail.com I would love to assist you for solving this issue.

I hope it was informative and solved your problem
