making invisible folder

Sometimes we need to hide our data in a folder and we dont have folderlock software with us
Thats where exactly we require creating an invisible folder.So here is the basic steps

  • Turn on Your Numlock key
  • create a new Folder,and rename it.(You can also rename your existing folder)
  • Type 255 from your num pad,while holding Alt Button.Not from ur alphabet pad.
  • Press Enter.You will notice u have created a folder without a name
  • Now right click-> properties->customize->Change icon button
  • Scroll the icon and click on any empty area
  • press ok->apply->ok
and you're done.The icon of the folder is invisible

in a simple way,we have created the folder w/o any name and just changed its icon to nothing

Services You Can Disable

There are quite a few services you can disable from starting automatically.
This would be to speed up your boot time and free resources.
They are only suggestions so I suggestion you read the description of each one when you run Services
and that you turn them off one at a time.

Some possibilities are:
  • Alerter
  • Application Management
  • Clipbook
  • Fast UserSwitching
  • Human Interface Devices
  • Indexing Service
  • Messenger
  • Net Logon
  • NetMeeting
  • QOS RSVP
  • Remote Desktop Help Session Manager
  • Remote Registry
  • Routing & Remote Access
  • SSDP Discovery Service
  • Universal Plug and Play Device Host
  • Web Client

Increasing System Performance

If you have 512 megs or more of memory, you can increase system performance
by having the core system kept in memory.

Start Regedit
Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Memory Management\DisablePagingExecutive
Set the value to be 1
Reboot the computer
