How can I make Outlook quit asking for my password?

How can I make Outlook quit asking for my password? QUESTION: I recently installed Vista and Outlook 2007 on my Dell XPS. Everything works, but Outlook asks for my password every time. I keep checking the box that says "remember my password" but Outlook seems to have a bad memory. Do you know if there's any way to fix this? Thanks! - Troy F. ANSWER: There's a solution that works some of the time, but be careful because you're editing important files. You should make a backup of the folder in question first as shown in the steps below. 1. Close Outlook. 2. Open Windows Explorer and navigate to: %userprofile% \ AppData \ Roaming \ Microsoft \ Protect 3. This will display a folder with a long alpha and numerical name. 4. Rename the folder to something else (for instance, add "old" to the end) 5. Open Outlook back up. 6. Type in your password when you're asked and check the "remember my password" box (if all goes well, this should be the last time you have to do it). This creates a new version of that folder you just renamed to "old" and (we hope) fixes the problem. It doesn't work for everyone but it does work a lot of the time.

How to quickly disable Aero to run video games

How to quickly disable Aero to run video games

How to quickly disable Aero to run video games If you sometimes need to disable the Aero interface so you'll get better performance, as when running a video game that sucks up a lot of resources, but you don't want to have to go through the whole disablement process in the Personalization applet every time, here's what to do: 1. Make a shortcut, on the desktop or elsewhere, to the game or other application that you want Aero turned off for. 2. Right click the shortcut and select Properties. 3. Click the Compatibility tab. 4. Under Settings, click "Disable desktop composition." Now you can start the game or application with the shortcut, and Aero will automatically be disabled. If you want to run the game or application without disabling Aero, open it from a different location.

غیرفعال کردن Security Center در ویندوز ویستا

ابزار Security Center که در ویندوز ویستا موجود است ، به منظور آگاهی دادن کاربر از تنظیمات امنیتی و نرم افزارهای امنیتی نصب شده بر روی ویندوز ، اعم از آنتی ویروسها و فایروال ها به کار میرود. اما ممکن است شما به هر دلیلی علاقه ای به نصب نرم افزارهای امنیتی بر روی سیستم به فرض برای کند شدن سرعت نداشته باشید. در این صورت پیغام های اخطار Security Center یک دم شما را آسوده نخواهد گذاشت. در این ترفند قصد داریم روش مخفی سازی این ابزار و خلاصی از دست آن را برای شما معرفی کنیم. لازم به ذکر است در صورتی که امنیت سیستم شما در اولویت نیست این ترفند را اجرا کنید

برای این کار:

بر روی آیکون Security Center در تسکبار (علامت تعجب نارنجی) راست کلیک کنید و Open Security Center را انتخاب نمایید.
در پنجره Security Center در سمت چپ صفحه (ترفندستان) روی عبارت Change the way Security Center alerts me کلیک کنید.
خواهید دید که پنجره جدیدی باز میشود و از شما سوال Do you want to be notified of security issue را میپرسد ، در این پنجره گزینه سوم یعنی
Don't notify me and don't display the icon - not recommended را انتخاب نمایید.
هم اکنون کار تمام است و شما دیگر از این پس Security Center را مشاهده نخواهید کرد.

لازم به ذکر است این روش با اندکی تفاوت در ویندوز XP سرویس پک 2 و ویندوز 2003 امکان پذیر است.

How to install the Mf.sys driver in Vista

The Mf.sys device driver that was included in previous versions of Windows is not installed in Vista by default. Although only a few devices now use it, if you happen to need to use one of them, your installation will fail unless you install the driver. Here's how: Open Windows Explorer and navigate to the System32 folder in the Windows directory (you may need to first configure folder properties to show hidden and system files in Explorer's Tools | Folder Options | Views dialog box). Locate the System32\DriverStore\FileRepository folder. Find the Mf.inf_[hexadecimal number] folder (for example, the folder name might be Mf.inf_dcf62a9a) and double click it. Within the folder, right click the Mf.sys file and select Copy. Go to the System32\Drivers folder and paste the file there. Alternatively, you can right drag and copy. In the Destination Folder Access Denied dialog box, click Continue. In the User Account Control dialog box, click Continue. The .inf file for the device should contain both a DDInstall section and a DDInstall.Services section. Now you should be able to install the device.
