Is your computer shared with people? If so, you will be concerned about the security of your personal files. If you are using the Windows XP operating system, then you can use Windows XP to provide some simple and efficient settings to maintain your file security. 1. How to make XP automatically connect to the Internet
IE - Tools - internet option - connect, check "Dial when the network does not exist", pull IE to "Start" After each boot, you are online There is another way: enter the connection content, cancel the checkmark of "prompt name, password, credentials, etc.", and then pull the connection to "start". 2, quickly browse the local area network sharing
Normally, Windows XP will check all the scheduled tasks on the other machine when connecting to other computers, this check will let you wait for 30 seconds or more. Remove the method from the registry to find "HKEY_LOCAL_MacHINESoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrent VersionExplorerRemoteComputerNameSpace". Under this key value, there will be a {D6277990-4C6A-11CF-8D87-00AA0060F5BF} button, delete it, restart the computer, Windows XP will not check the scheduled task, the speed will be significantly improved. 3. Encrypt files and folders
Encrypt files and folders to prevent unauthorized users from reading the files and folders. To encrypt a file or folder in Windows, open Windows Explorer, right-click on the file or folder you want to encrypt, select the Properties option, and click Advanced in the General tab. Button, select the "Encrypt content to protect data" checkbox (this operation is only available for NTFS file system). When encrypting a folder, the system will ask if you want to encrypt all files and subfolders in the folder at the same time. If you choose to do so, all files or subfolders currently and in the future will be encrypted. If you choose to encrypt only the folder, the files and subfolders currently in the folder will not be encrypted, but any files and subfolders added to the folder will be encrypted when they are added. When encrypting a single file, the system will also ask if you want to encrypt the folder containing it at the same time. If you choose to do this, all subsequent files and subfolders added to the folder will be automatically encrypted. 4. Increase the transmission speed of 10/100M NIC
Select “Start→Connect to→Show all connections”, double-click the connection used by the NIC, click “Properties” button to open the “Properties” dialog box, select “Advanced” tab . Select "Link Speed/Duplex Mode" in the "Properties" column, and then change "Auto Mode" to "10 Half Mode" in the "Set Value" column. In this way, the 10/100M adaptive NIC's attributes are manually forced to 10M half-duplex mode, so that the NICs are not automatically negotiated, so that the NICs are always transmitting at 10 Mbps, which greatly improves the network. Transmission efficiency. This setting is only valid for some NICs. 5, shared drive or folder settings
Windows XP can be used to easily set the drive or folder to "share", and if you do not want these shared drives or folders to be seen by remote computer users, Just add a "$" after the "share name" of the shared drive or folder, such as "C$". However, when the remote computer user knows the computer name of the machine and the user name and password of the administrator and server operator, then any remote computer user can access the computer through the local area network or the Internet. Undoubtedly, this also enables the shared drive. There is a security risk in the computer of the folder or folder. To secure the shared drive or folder, we should disable the server service. When the server service is disabled, all remote computers will not be able to connect to any drive or folder on that computer, but the administrator of this machine will still be able to access shared folders on other computers. To disable the server service, go to Control Panel - Performance and Maintenance - Administrative Tools, double-click the Services icon, and double-click the Server option in the Services window. In the dialog box shown in Figure 1, select the "Disabled" or "Manual" item in the "Startup Type" list. 6, solve the problem of WinXP execution pause
Start - network connection - local connection, right click, select properties, select "Internet Protocol (TCP /IP)", click on the property, use the following IP address: 192.168 .0.1, subnet mask: 255.255.255.0, so that's fine, it won't stop after booting. 7, set the folder as a dedicated folder
By default, all folders in Windows XP are open, that is, all users on the machine can use them, which undoubtedly makes important users of some users The data faces serious threats. To this end, Windows XP has added a feature called "folder-specific", which means that in a NTFS file system, after a folder is set to a "private folder" by the user, the folder can only be This user is used, and other users can't use it after logging in to Windows XP, which is convenient for protecting important personal information. To make a folder dedicated, simply move the folder to the "x:\\Documents and Settings\\username\\" folder (where x is the partition where the Windows XP installation files are located), then right click on the folder , select the "Properties" option, and check the "Make this folder personal, so only I can access" checkbox in the "Share" tab. In this way, when other users want to enter this folder after logging in to Windows XP, they will be warned of "access denied". 8. Accelerated sharing
This is a great optimization. Before I found this optimization, I often broke the scalp in the shared directory on the other machine waiting for the window to display. Normally, when Windows XP is connected to another computer, it checks all the scheduled tasks on the other machine - this is superfluous and will keep you waiting for 30 seconds, which is really bad. Fortunately, it is easy to ban this process. First, find HKEY_LOCAL_MacHINE\\Software\\Microsoft\\Windows/Current Version\\Explorer\\RemoteComputer\\NameSpace in the registry. In it, there should be a {D6277990-4C6A-11CF-87-00AA0060F5BF} button. Just delete it, restart the computer, Windows will not check the scheduled tasks, the speed is significantly improved!
