Windows XP tips 20

Many Windows XP users complain that the system shutdown waits too long, the disk is high, some operations are not as fast as Windows 98 and so on. The following is a detailed description of the 20 skills, I hope to help you improve your application skills.

1. Automatically record the opening time of the file in Notepad

In Notepad, we can record the time of opening a text file each time. The method is: in the file Enter ".LOG" in one line (note: you must capitalize!), then wrap the line to start the body. This will automatically add the current time after the file is closed each time the file is opened.

2, Quickly browse offline pages

Need to browse an open page The traditional way is to find and open this page in a link, one link, in the order of online opening. The quicker way is to add this page to your favorites and later browse the page from your favorites in offline mode. In fact, creating a shortcut for this page is the fastest way. In the address bar of the browser, there is a small icon in front of the URL of the opened webpage. Hold down the small icon with the mouse and drag it to the desktop. You can quickly browse the webpage offline on the desktop next time.

3, fast mail

Right click on the "Start" menu, select "Open", right click in the open window, select "New" --- "Shortcut", then type "mailto:" in the "Please type the location of the project" box, click "Next", enter the name in the "Type the name of the shortcut" box, click "Finish" . Just click on this shortcut to create a new email in the future. If you often email a friend, you can create a shortcut for this friend. The method is similar to the above. For example, if your friend's email address is [email protected], then you just need to type "mailto:[email protected]" in the "Please enter the location of the project" box, and the rest will remain unchanged.

4. Place your favorite programs near the top of the Start menu

Do you like a program very much and use it often? Then, it should be prioritized in the Start menu by placing it at the top of the list. This approach ensures that the program remains in the start menu and is not interfered with by other programs, even if other programs have a higher frequency of use. Right-click on the link to your favorite program on the Start menu and select "Apply to the 'Start' menu" in the shortcut menu that appears. Your program will be permanently moved to the top of the list, just below the browser and email program.

5. Adding a ring to Capslock

Inadvertently pressing Capslock when typing Chinese will become uppercase English. Adding a "ring" to this button is more worrying. To do this, open the Accessibility tab of the Control Panel and in the Keyboard item, select Use Switching Key.
