Easily search any file in Windows 7

The dafault search in Windows 7 is not good at all.I recommend to use Agent Ransack 
for search any file.Using this, you can enjoy following features:



Immediate resultsFound text is shown with highlighted keywords so you don't need to waste time opening each file looking for the right information.
Boolean expressionsCombine search terms using the familiar Boolean operators AND, OR, NOT.
Office formatsSupport for popular Office formats including Office 2007 and OpenOffice.
Perl regexSupport for Perl compatible regular expressions.


64-bit VersionNatively compiled 64-bit version for improved compatibility.
Fast searchingHighly efficient search algorithms mean that you spend less time waiting for results.
Printing and ExportingResults can be shared with others through printing and exporting.
Corporate VersionFor corporate environments we have a more 'gentle' branding of Agent Ransack called FileLocator Lite. It's still free but just has a different name. See the FileLocator Lite page for more information.
Restricted VersionA 'locked down' version of Agent Ransack is available for environments where the end-user is not allowed to search their local PC. Please contactSales for more information.

So try it now.........

Create a Shortcut or Hotkey for the Safely Remove Hardware Dialog

If you often use removable USB devices like a flash drive, you are probably already familiar with the “Safely Remove Hardware” icon that sits in the system tray. The problem for many people is that the icon is tiny, and clicking it just right to bring up the menu is a pain.But don't worry,you can make a shortcut for this.For this do the following step
  • Right-click anywhere on the desktop and choose New > Shortcut:
  • Write 'RunDll32.exe shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL hotplug.dll' in the location box.
  • Give it a name, and you’ll have a shortcut icon that will pull up the Safely Remove Hardware dialog.
Now when you want to remove a USB device just double click in the short cut icon and easily remove the device.

If you want to assign a shortcut key to this dialog, you can right-click the icon and open the properties dialog, then go to the Shortcut tab.Add in the shortcut key and close the dialog. As long as the shortcut is on your desktop you shouldn’t have to restart anything for the hotkey to work. You can also move the shortcut to another folder, for instance your quick launch bar.

Useful windows 7 tips

Today I share some useful tips of windows 7.I hope it will help you......
  • Recover screen space
The new Windows 7 taskbar acts as one big quick launch toolbar that can hold whatever program shortcuts you like (just right-click one and select Pin To Taskbar). And that's fine, except it does consume a little more screen real estate than we'd like. Shrink it to a more manageable size by right-clicking the Start orb, then Properties > Taskbar > Use small icons > OK.
  • Desktop slideshow
Windows 7 comes with some very attractive new wallpapers, and it's not always easy to decide which one you like the best. So why not let choose a few, and let Windows display them all in a desktop slideshow? Right-click an empty part of the desktop, select Personalise > Desktop Background, then hold down Ctrl as you click on the images you like. Choose how often you'd like the images to be changed (anything from daily to once every 10 seconds), select Shuffle if you'd like the backgrounds to appear in a random order, then click Save Changes and enjoy the show
  • Remove taskbar buttons
One problem with the previous tip is the buttons will gobble up valuable taskbar real estate, but you can reduce the impact of this by removing their text captions. Launch REGEDIT, browse to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop\WindowMetrics, add a string called MinWidth, set it to 54, and reboot to see the results.
  • Custom power switch

By default, Windows 7 displays a plain text 'Shut down' button on the Start menu, but it only takes a moment to change this action to something else. If you reboot your PC a few times every day then that might make more sense as a default action: right-click the Start orb, select Properties and set the 'Power boot action' to 'Restart' to make it happen
  •  Browse your tasks
    If you prefer the keyboard over the mouse, you will love browsing the taskbar using this nifty shortcut. Press Windows and T, and you move the focus to the left-most icon on the taskbar. Then use your arrow keys to change the focus to other icons, and you get a live preview of every window.
