Unlock the
Hidden Themes:
Windows 7 has a pack of hidden and
locked themes. To unlock the hidden themes:
1. Go to C:\Windows\winsxs
2. Enter “*.theme” in the search
feld. You will get the Click me prompt
3. Double-click the themes ZA, US, GB,
CA, AU to install them.
Get Exact
Colors On Your Screen
If you are an artist or you work with
colors, use the Calibrate Color option in the Control Panel Display
applet or run dccw.exe from the Start Menu search box. You can adjust
gamma, brightness, contrast, and color balance, ensuring that colors
are displayed correctly on your screen.
AppLocker
If you are usually sharing your
computer with someone else, then you might want to restrict their
access to your applications, files or documents. Using the AppLocker
tool, you have a few options to do this by blocking other users to
access Executables, Windows Installers, Scripts, a specific publisher
or path.
You can simply do this by pressing the
Windows key then typing Gpedit.msc. Then go to Computer Navigation ->
Windows Settings -> Security Settings -> Application Control
Policies -> AppLocker. Right click on one of the options
(Executables, Installers, or Script) and create a new rule. That
should save you from a lot of headaches.
Background
Photo Slideshow
If you are like me, lazy and bored,
then you will want to change the background from time to time,
wasting a lot of time. Now you don’t have to do this anymore,
because you can set up a slideshow.
Right click on the desktop then go to
Personalize -> Desktop Background and hold the CTRL key while
choosing the images. Then you can choose the time intervals between
images and opt to display them randomly or in a row
Custom Power
Button
There is an option to replace the “Shut
Down” button with another action, if you rarely shut down the
computer, but you more often restart it or put it on sleep.
Right click the Start Button, go to
Properties and choose the ‘Power Boot Action” to do whatever you
want, from the given options.
