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

By Administrator
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.

23 useful "Win" shortcuts (for all types of users)

By Administrator
23 useful Windows shortcuts (for all types of users)

Whether you're a beginner, an advanced user, a developer, or a designer, and you're using Windows, I'm sure some of these shortcuts will work for you.

"Win" shortcuts are those shortcuts that are activated by pressing the Win key on the keyboard. This key is mostly located in the lower-left corner of most keyboards, between the Ctrl and Alt keys.

These shortcuts are only available on the Windows operating system, but some Linux distributions have also taken them over due to user habits.

They are very useful because all the actions in the computer that we normally perform manually in a few steps can be performed in a second. In addition, the shortcut can be activated at any time, whatever you do on the computer and whatever program is running. So, it does not depend on the current program, as is the case with e.g. Ctrl and Alt shortcuts.

In this article, I decided to write a list of these shortcuts and what they are used for in the hope that they will speed up and facilitate someone's work on the computer.

Useful Windows shortcuts:

Shortcut Action
[Win] Open / close Start - more
[Win] + A Open the notifications panel
[Win] + D Quick transition to the desktop
[Win] + E Open My Computer (File Explorer)
[Win] + I Open the "Settings" application
[Win] + L Lock account or change user - more
[Win] + M Minimize all windows
[Win] + R Run the Run window
[Win] + S Run a computer search
[Win] + U Open a center for people with special needs
[Win] + <Number> Launch the application from the Start bar that corresponds to the ordinal number you press (1-9) - more
[Win] + [Left arrow] Paste the window to the left edge of the screen
[Win] + [Right arrow] Paste the window to the right of the screen
[Win] + [Upper Arrow] Enlarge the window to full screen (Maximize)
[Win] + [Bottom Arrow] Minimize
[Win] + [,] Quick desktop overview
[Win] + [Ctrl] + D Add a virtual desktop
[Win] + [Ctrl] + [Left Arrow] Change the virtual desktop
[Win] + [Ctrl] + [F4] Close the current virtual desktop
[Win] + [Home] Lower all windows except the current one
[Win] + [PrtScn] Capture the screen and place it in the Screenshots folder
[Win] + [+] Magnify the screen using a magnifying glass
[Win] + V Show copy history - read more

The most useful to me are:

1. „Win“

I often open Start because that's where all the apps I use often are. Also, I open Start to search for computers (applications, files…). When you open the start you can immediately start typing the search term.

2. Win + Number

In the status bar, I have listed several programs that I use most often during the day and I use Win + Number to run them. For example, Chrome comes first for me and it is enough to press Win + 1 to start it.

3. Win + L

Whenever I get up from the computer I lock it with Win + L shortcut.

4. Win + V

Recently, Windows 10 has an option that keeps a copy history. This history is accessed by pressing this shortcut. When the copy history window opens, you can click on an item and that content will be entered in the field you marked.

These are the Win shortcuts I use at least once a day or two that you use most often?

New Google mobile internet saving application - Datally

By Administrator
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?

By Administrator
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.
