<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">Windows 7 has been out for ages now — its successor is but a few months away. With a big portion of the world’s population running this operating system, its nooks and crannies are well explored. Well, almost!<br /><br />Here are more than forty not so obvious features and shortcuts to make your life that much more easier! In the interest of keeping this fairly lightweight, I haven’t included your run of the mill registry hacks and such. Look for a nerdier roundup very soon! Now off we go!</span></span></div>

<b><span style="color: purple;"><span style="font-size: x-large;">1.Launch Taskbar Apps in a Cinch</span></span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">You probably have all your favorite apps pinned to your taskbar. Launching each requires you moving your mouse all the way down and clicking. Boring!<br /><br />An easier is to press the Windows key and the position of the app in the taskbar. For example, in the example below, I have Explorer in the first position. Pressing Win+1 will open it up right away. Oddly, using the numpad for this doesn’t seem to be working.</span></span></div>

<b><span style="color: purple;"><span style="font-size: x-large;">2. Search Within Documents</span></span></b><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">By default, Windows doesn’t search the contents of files that aren’t indexed. If you’re in a hurry and need everything searched, prefix your search keywords with content: and Windows will look for every instance of the word.</span></span><br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b><span style="color: purple;"><span style="font-size: x-large;">3.Change the ‘Shut Down’ Button Behavior</span></span></b><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">For people like me who hibernate on a whim, the shut down button in the start menu is an absolute hindrance. Two clicks to get what I want? Unacceptable. Fortunately, you can easily customize this behavior.</span></span></div>

<b><span style="color: purple;"><span style="font-size: x-large;">4.Enable Internet Searches from the Start Menu</span></span></b><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">A slightly impractical but still very useful tip. From the start menu, run gpedit.msc. In the window that opens up, go to User Configuration -> Administrative Templates -> Start Menu and Taskbar. In the right page, you should find an entry called Add Search Internet link to Start Menu. Go ahead and enable it to see Windows display a Search the Internet link with every search. </span></span></div>

<b><span style="color: purple;"><span style="font-size: x-large;">5.Copy into the Command line</span></span></b><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Let’s start off with a nerdy one. Often when you’re following a tutorial online, you’ll be asked to run a few commands in your command line. You coyly press Ctrl+V but uh oh. What’s this? Nothing happened.<br /><br />To copy something into the command line, press Alt+Space which invokes the windows menu. Now go to the edit option and choose paste. Voila! To make it even shorter Alt+Space followed by E and P gets it done in four keystrokes.</span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<b><span style="color: purple;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: x-large;">6. Use the Volume Mixer to Granular Audio Control</span></span></span></b><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Did you know Windows ships with the ability to control volume on a per app level? You’d usually control the volume by clicking on the speaker icon in your system tray. For the volume mixer, right click on the icon and choose the mixer. You’ll notice a window with options for your main playback device as well as each application that’s capable of outputting sound. In the example below, I have Firefox, and Winamp running.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: large;">One thing I adore on OS X is the clean, crisp typography that it renders. While earlier versions of Windows struggled with this aspect, 7 is pretty spot on.<br /><br />If you’re unhappy with the current way it renders text, you can always tune it up. Go to Control Panel -> Appearance and Personalization and choose Adjust ClearType text under the Fonts category. The utility that pops up should walk you through setting up text rendering the way you want.</span></span></span></div>

Tweak the Autorun Behavior</span></span></b><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><br />By default, Windows 7 pops up an autoplay window when you plugin new media. While a lot of people find it quite useful, it merely gets in the way for me.<br /><br />Thankfully, you can tweak this behavior in a granular manner. Want your audio CDs to autoplay in Winamp but want your movie DVDs to open with VLC instead? Or want autoplay disabled on just your USB devices? Easy. Go to Control Panel -> Hardware and Sound. There you can find a separate section just for autoplay. The first link lets you tweak everything to your heart’s contents.</span></span></span></div>

AutoArrange Your Desktop</span></span></b><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><br />You can ask Windows 7 to arrange your desktop by right clicking on the desktop and choosing View -> Auto arange. Once enabled though, you don’t have to go through all those clicks to re-arrange your desktop. Pressing and holding F5 does the trick!</span><br /><span style="color: purple;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /> </span></span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b><span style="color: purple;"><span style="font-size: x-large;">33. Easier App Switching</span></span></b><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">Alt+tabbing is nice but there is an easier way to switch to your apps. Press the Windows key plus the position of the app in the taskbar. For example, if an app is placed first in your taskbar, press Win+1 and the app will get focus. If it’s not running, it will be launched, as mentioned earlier above.</span></span></span><br />

One amongst them is Open command window here. Really helps if you don’t feel to comfortable with the command line.</span></span></span><br />

The tool provides you with an indepth look at what is eating your CPU cycles, memory and network.</span></span></span><br />

A small window will appear (see the screenshot below), select the Startup tab. From here you will be able to turn off many startup programs, which can shave several seconds (or minutes) off your boot time. </span></span></h3>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Here’s <span class="IL_AD" id="IL_AD6">how to fix it</span>:</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>1. Type “about:config” (no quotes) in the adress bar in the browser.</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>2. Find “browser.sessionhistory.max_total_viewer”</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>2. Set it’s value to “0“;(Zero)</b></span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: purple; font-size: x-large;"><b>2 - Increase the Speed in Which Firefox loads pages!</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>1. Type “about:config” into the address bar and hit Enter.</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>(Normally the browser will make one request to a web page at a time. 
When you enable pipelining it will make several at once, which really 
speeds up page loading.)</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>2.Alter the entries as follows:</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Set “network.http.pipelining” to “true”</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Set “network.http.pipelining.maxrequests” to some number like 10.</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>This means it will make 10 requests at once.</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Lastly, right-click anywhere and select New-> Integer. Name it 
“nglayout.initialpaint.delay” and set its value to “0“;.(Zero)</b></span></div>
