Here's what a VPN can't protect you from (but you need to use it)

The abbreviation " VPN " has slowly become established among average Internet users, which is certainly good, but the problem is that people have started to see VPN as the ultimate solution to all problems.

MiniTool Power Data Recovery

MiniTool Power Data Recovery

When it comes to working with computers, data loss is not only possible but almost inevitable. Whether the cause is a moment of your inattention or hardware problems, whether hard drives or optical and flash media, sooner or later you will need a software solution that offers the ability to recover lost files.

One such program is called  MiniTool Power Data Recovery.

Already during the installation, the program will warn you that it is not a good idea to install it on the partition from which you are trying to recover data, as it can easily happen that they are overwritten in the process.

The main screen of the application offers access to the available modules, of which there are five, which are divided by the type of data recovery you want to perform. There are "Undelete Recovery", for accidentally deleted files and folders, "Damaged" and "Lost Partition Recovery", for extracting data from damaged or lost partitions, as well as "Digital Media" and "CD / DVD Recovery", which are intended work with portable and Flash memories, as well as optical disks.

Using the program is quite simple. Once the module is loaded, you can select a disk or partition, and click on the "Full Scan" option, after which a window for progress, found files and the remaining time will be displayed. The duration of the operation, of course, depends on the size of the partition, as well as the number of files and the degree of damage. After the scan, you can view the found files, and easily recover the desired ones by right-clicking and selecting the "Recover" option, which works on entire folders.

Of course, no program of this type can guarantee 100% success, as it depends on several factors, but during multiple tests, Power Data Recovery has performed very well.

I wrote an article on how to save internet traffic on an Android device and I suggested the Onavo Extend and Opera Max apps because they were the most popular back then. Meanwhile, Opera Max has been discontinued and Onavo has been completely redesigned and is now a VPN application with the option to save internet traffic. Their compression technology is probably now used by Facebook in its application because they bought Onavo - link . Google has decided to seize the opportunity and "push" with a new application called " Datally ".

How to change IMEI number on Android phone?

IMEI is an abbreviation of "international mobile equipment identity" and each mobile phone should have a unique IMEI number. You cannot change this number with the operator, but you can temporarily change it on your device. It allows the operator to accurately identify your device and thus enable/disable network services. Also, you can use the possibility of changing the IMEI number, at least for a short time, if you know exactly what you want, but I leave those ideas to you because this is an educational article.
