Microsoft: Welcome to Windows 10

It's been referred to by Microsoft insiders as 'Windows vNext', by its internal development codename 'Threshold', and even by the placeholder title of 'Windows TH' - but today, Microsoft revealed that its next major OS will not get the name that we all expected, Windows 9. 
It will instead be called Windows 10.
   
The company briefly joked that the name of the new Windows would actually be 'Windows One' - but noted that 'Windows 1' (or 1.0, if you prefer), has been done before.
Quite why Microsoft ultimately chose to leapfrog version 9 entirely will no doubt be a matter that is endlessly discussed in days to come. However, Microsoft's Terry Myerson said that Windows 10 is a more appropriate name, given the extent of the changes in this release versus the previous version.

Scan and remove software that may cause problems with Chrome.

If you notice Chrome behaving strangely (for example, showing you unusual startup pages, toolbars, or pop-up ads you can’t get rid of), it may be due to an unwanted program on your computer.  You may be able to fix the problem by downloading and running the Software Removal Tool. The Software Removal Tool looks for programs known to cause trouble for Chrome. Think of this as a “factory reset” of Chrome. It removes programs that affect Chrome's behavior and offer to restore its original settings. These programs aren't typical cases of malware, so your antivirus or security software may not pick them up.
Common settings that are changed:

Trend Micro Anti-Threat Toolkit – Malware Scanner/Remover

On-demand malware scanners/removers have become an integral part of our overall security strategy these days with most users utilizing at least one of these programs to help maintain a clean machine.

Windows 9 said to be free (again), this time by a Microsoft official



We have been hearing for some time that Windows 9 could be free, and thanks to a Microsoft official in Indonesia, the rumors are looking like they will be true. The information is said to come from Andreas Diantoro, who, according to his LinkedIn profile, is the president of Microsoft Indonesia.

Just like we heard back in late June, Microsoft is hoping to move all of its users to its latest platform, and by removing the cost of entry, this should be a big motivator.

Proper instructions regarding the despatch of SP-COD articles were not circulated through proper channel. Even though the instruction was available in the CEPT ftp site, the information was not reached in the Post Office level. 

The speed post centres received SP-COD articles through their regular bag which normally includes articles to be delivered under the area of some other sub-offices.  But these articles cannot be transferred to postman module.  This was another confusion in this regard.

Windows 7 PCs may disappear after October 31

Windows 7 PCs may disappear after October 31
You might want to hurry as Microsoft has announced it will no longer supply certain versions of the OS to hardware partners from October 31.

Thinking about picking up a new PC with Windows 7 pre-installed? You might want to hurry as Microsoft has announced it will no longer supply certain versions of the OS to hardware partners from October 31. 

Post October, Microsoft will stop sending copies of Windows 7 Home Basic, Home Premium or Ultimate to PC makers, which will be able to sell off (but not replenish) remaining stock. A cut-off date for Windows 7 Pro is yet to be announced. 

The move is a not-so-subtle nudging of users toward Windows 8, which has struggled to find its footing since launching in 2012. According to figures from NetMarketShare, 13.4% of PC users are using Windows 8 or Windows 8.1, compared with 51.2% on Windows 7 and 23.89% running the 12-year-old OS Windows XP.

Windows Firewall Broken? – Reset It

What is a Firewall? – Hardware vs Software


As the image suggests, it is an enforced protection between your computer and the rest of the world. There are both hardware firewalls and software firewalls that you can implement on your computer system.
Let’s talk about the differences…

Hardware Firewalls (NAT Routers)

It is most likely these days that you have a Network Address Translation (NAT) router sitting between you and the Internet. NAT routers are probably all you need in the way of a firewall. With a NAT router, computers on the Internet cannot connect to your computer unless you have already made an outbound request for them to do so.
An outbound request, for example, is when you use your browser to load a web page. You have made a request of a computer on the Internet to deliver this page to your computer. If you do not make such a request, your router will deny its access and basically toss it to the wind. This is a very secure system and protects you from the bad guys that are trying to gain access to your computer and any others on your local network.

Free Upgrade from Windows XP to Windows 9: Why Microsoft Needs to Make This Possible

Windows XP is still installed on 23 percent of the PCs worldwide
Windows 9 beta is just around the corner, as Microsoft is giving the final touches to the preview ahead of the first public demo on September 30 in front of a crowd of select journalists.

But even though Microsoft has until now struggled to keep all details away from us, people close to the matter have revealed quite a lot of information about the upcoming project, including some licensing plans that could make Windows 9 available either free of charge or with a very affordable price for existing Windows customers.

While it’s yet too early to confirm this, sources familiar with Microsoft’s development plans have suggested that Redmond could go as far as making Windows 9 free for everyone running a previous Windows version, including XP, Vista, and 7.

Microsoft Gives Office Completely Free to More Students

The new offer is available as part of the Student Advantage program
Microsoft is one of the companies that are aggressively investing in the educational sector, and it’s a well-known fact that several schools have already signed up for a program that brings Surface tablets, Windows 8.1 devices, and free Office 365 for students and teachers.

But there are some cases when schools failed to register for Microsoft’s programs, so a lot of students actually never got the chance to receive a free copy of Office.

That’s going to change thanks to a new program announced by Microsoft, that allows students to request free software as part of the Student Advantage program on their own, without the need for schools to give their go-ahead.

Microsoft OneDrive Now Offering 30 GB of Free Storage with a Catch

Microsoft improves OneDrive on a regular basis




Microsoft’s cloud-based storage service OneDrive comes by default with 15 GB of free storage space, after being upgraded from 7 GB, but Redmond has decided to give users the possibility of increasing the capacity available at no cost with a very handy option.

Starting today, consumers who configure their phones to automatically upload camera photos to OneDrive receive 15 GB of additional storage space, thus boosting the free capacity to 30 GB.

OneDrive has become a vital product for Microsoft’s long-term strategy, so the service is now integrated into Windows, Windows Phone, Outlook, Office 365 and others, with the software giant rolling out updates on a regular basis to keep pace with rivals from Google and Dropbox.

TeamViewer 9 Review – How to Have a Long-Distance Relationship with Your PC

Remote access is one of the most efficient ways of getting ahold of important files from a computer from work when you're are at home, instead of going through the trouble of making a long trip to the office or asking a colleague to turn on the PC.

Such tools bring additional perks to the table, like the ability to teach someone how to use a PC by taking over command from another machine that doesn't necessarily exist in the local network, as well as to organize meetings and presentations between multiple hosts.


5 quick ways to speed up your Android smartphone


IMG_1589_contentfullwidth

Remember the halcyon days of your HTC One/LG G3/Samsung Galaxy S5? How you ran your fingers across the screen and marveled as it transitioned smoothly between apps? You were together, taking on the world in ergonomic bliss.
Now though, with a few scratches to the screen and some scuff marks to the casing, your beloved phone has become sluggish and as you browse the web, your eyes guiltily move towards the gleaming fascias of the latest models.
Don't chuck your beloved yet though, read this five step guide on how to speed up your Android phone.
1. Clear the app cache
Having lots of apps can be really useful and really fun, but over time they write to the app cache on your phone, consuming valuable system resources and slowing the phone down. Go to Settings and you can wipe the cache of any app, but with lots of apps, that's going to be a bit of a task.
But don't worry, there's an app for that -- App Cache Cleaner. Just tap Clear and it's all gone. There's also an Auto Clear feature, which can clean up your cache at intervals set by you.
