15 Best Windows 7 Tips and Hacks





 

 

1. Use Keyboard Shortcuts

Using the mouse, you can drag-”˜n-dock windows to either side of the screen, or drag it to the top to maximize it. These keyboard shortcuts are even faster:
  • Win+Left Arrow and Win+Right Arrow dock the window to the left and right side of the screen
  • Win+Up Arrow and Win+Down Arrow maximize and restore/minimize
  • Win+M minimizes everything
  • Alt+Up, Alt+Left Arrow, Alt+Right Arrow navigate to parent folder, or browse Back and Forward through folders in Explorer
  • Win+Home minimizes/restores all open windows except the active window
  • Alt+Win+# accesses the Jump List of program number ‘#’ on the taskbar

2.Rearrange System Tray Icons

SystemTray
You can rearrange icons on the taskbar as you wish and start new (or switch to running) instances of the first ten taskbar programs using Win+1, Win+2, and so on. The cool thing is you can also rearrange system tray icons. Reorder them on the tray or move them outside or back in the tray. Take control of what you want to always keep an eye on, and from which apps you’ll require notifications.

3. Access Jump Lists with the Left Mouse Button

Jump Lists usually show up when you right-click on a taskbar icon. However, they can also be accessed by holding the left mouse button and dragging upwards. If you’re using a laptop touchpad or a touch screen, this is convenient because you do not have to click any button to access a context menu.

4. Add Any Folder to Favorites

AddToFavorites
You can add any library or folder to the Favorites section in Windows Explorer. To add a folder, navigate to it in Explorer, right-click Favorites in the left navigation pane, and select Add current location to Favorites. Now you get quick access to your favorite folders in all File->Save As dialogs!

5. Pin Frequently Used Folders to the Taskbar

Right-click, drag, and pin your favorite folders to Windows Explorer on the taskbar. They will now show up in the Jump List when you right click on Explorer giving you quick access to your favorite folders.

6. Pin Control Panel to the Taskbar

PinControlPanel
You cannot pin the Control Panel to the taskbar via the Start Menu or by drag and drop. Open the Control Panel and right-click its taskbar icon to pin it to the taskbar. An advantage of this is that Control Panel’s Jump List allows quick access to recently used functions.

7. Create Keyboard Shortcuts for Programs

You can create keyboard shortcuts for any program in Windows 7. Right-click the program icon and select Properties. Select the Shortcut tab, click in Shortcut key, to set the keyboard shortcut for that program.
ProgramShortcutKey

8. Open Command Prompt in Any Folder

Like the command prompt? Miss the “˜Open Command Window Here’ Windows XP power toy? Press “˜Shift’ when right-clicking on a folder to get that option in the context menu. This also works on the desktop. No power toy required!
ExpandedContextMenu

9. View Expanded ‘Send To’ Menu

Press Shift when right-clicking on a folder to get an expanded Send To menu.

10. Adjust Screen Text with Clear Type

Use Clear Type Tuner for the best look on your LCD monitor or laptop screen. Run “˜cttune.exe‘ from the Start Menu search box, or go to the Control Panel Display applet, and select Adjust ClearType Text from the left.
ClearType Tuner

11. Get Exact Colors On Your Screen

If you are an artist or you work with colors, use the Calibrate Color option in the Control Panel Display applet or run dccw.exe from the Start Menu search box. You can adjust gamma, brightness, contrast, and color balance, ensuring that colors are displayed correctly on your screen.

12. Customize the Power Button

If you restart your computer more often than you shut it down, change the default Shutdown power button to Restart. Right-click on Start, select Properties, and choose the Power button action that you use the most.
StartMenuProperties

13. Customize Number of Items in Jump Lists & Start Menu

Right-click Start, select Properties, click Customize and choose the number of recent programs to be shown in the Start Menu and the number of items displayed in Jump Lists from the Start Menu Size section below.

14. Search Internet from the Start Menu

SearchInternetStartMenu
Enable Internet search from the Start Menu using your default browser. Run GPEDIT.MSC from the Start Menu search box to start the Group Policy Editor. In the left pane, go to User Configuration->Administrative Templates->Start Menu and Taskbar. In the right pane, right-click to Edit and Enable Add Search Internet link to Start Menu.
SearchInternet

15. Add Videos to Start Menu

Windows 7 does not place a link to your videos on the Start Menu by default. To add a link to your videos on the Start Menu, right-click Start, select Properties, click on Customize. In the Videos section at the bottom, choose Display as a link.

8 Hidden Tools In Windows 7 You Still Might Not Know About



hidden tools in windows 7Windows 7 is by no means a new operating system. If fact, Windows 8 is already out there and available for those who wish to try it. This why I was doubly surprised to realize that there are still some hidden tools in Windows 7 I did not know about.
If you’re a serious Windows fan, you probably know about these hidden gems already, but if you’re just a regular person who’s been using Windows 7, you might be surprised at some of the things that are built into Windows 7 and require no further download.

Snipping Tool

There are tons of simple screenshot tools out there, but did you know there’s a rather good one built into Windows? Simply start typing the word “snipping”  in the Windows search to find the snipping tool. With it, you can take 4 kinds of screenshots – full-screen, window, rectangular or free-form.
hidden tools in windows 7
The snipping tool comes complete with a simple image editor where you can highlight things, mark things with different color pens and e-mail your screenshot to friends.

You can save your creation as HTML, JPG, PNG or GIF.

Sticky Notes

Another hidden Windows surprise – built-in sticky notes. To access this (very) basic feature, start typing “sticky notes” in the Windows search.
hidden windows 7 tools
It might not be a full-featured and sophisticated solution like Stickies (which is my sticky note app of choice), but it sure provides the necessary basics. You can create multiple sticky notes in different colors and use almost any keyboard shortcut you’d use in Word, including CTRL+ALT+L for lists, CTRL+1,2,5 for line spacing, and more.

Magnifier

This is a very useful tool for those who find common font sizes too small to comfortably read. One solution is to increase resolution, which makes everything look bad, and the other is to use Magnifier. Start typing “Magnifier” in Windows search to find this tool. Using it, you will be able to choose between magnifying your whole screen, using a lens for specific areas or using the docked version in which the top part of your screen becomes the magnified portion of the bottom part.

You can choose the amount of magnification you get and how it changes when you click + or –. You can also use Magnifier to invert all your monitor colors, for a relaxed white-on-black experience.

Sound Recorder

There are many tools our there that can record, edit and convert audio to multiple formats. Sound Recorder is not one of them. Start typing “record” in Windows search to find this tool, which you can use to record simple WMA files, and that’s it.
hidden windows 7 features
If you have nothing installed and you just need to make a simple recording, you can launch this tiny tool and be done within seconds. Click “Start Recording” and record your sound. When you click “Stop Recording”, it will automatically open a saving dialogue and allow you to save your creation as WMA. If you wish, you can later convert this file to other formats using a different program.

Remote Assistance

Do you often need to help someone else using a remote control program? Or do you sometimes need some help yourself? There are some very popular programs that do this, and do it well, but there is also a built-in remote assistance solution in Windows 7. Start typing “remote” in Windows search and launch “Windows Remote Assistance”. You will be prompted to choose whether you’re giving or receiving help.
hidden windows 7 features
If you require assistance, you’ll be able to choose between creating an invitation file which you can send to your helper along with a password, or using Easy Connect, which is just exchanging passwords but it doesn’t always work.

You can also chat with your helper/helpee, and configure how much bandwidth the program will use, among other things.

Problem Steps Recorder

If remote assistance is not enough, you can use Windows’ problem steps recorder. This tool records everything you do, and creates an MHT file complete with screenshots (even of multiple monitors) and a description of every step you made. You can also add comments to every step. To run it, type “psr” in Windows search.

When you’re done recording the steps, the program will automatically save the output as a ZIP file containing an MHT file.

Malicious Software Removal Tool

This one is somewhat more known, and is a good tool to use in addition to other anti-virus programs. If your regular program doesn’t detect something, or if you happen to have nothing else installed, Windows provides its own malicious software removal tool. Type “mrt” in Windows search to find it.

You can choose between a quick scan, a full scan and a customized scan, and MRT will scan your computer and give you a report on its findings.

The tool only scans for a somewhat limited list of malicious software, so it cannot replace an anti-virus, but you can use it for extra security, and it also provides links to further reading on each malware on the list.

Disc Image Burner

This is more of a bonus than a hidden tool, but it can still be pretty useful. If you have ISO files you need to burn, and you don’t happen to have any other burning software installed, double clicking it will open the Windows Disc Image Burner.
hidden tools in windows 7
You can use this simple tool to burn the disc image, and that’s pretty much it. If you’ve associated ISO files with another program, you can access the disc image burning by right-clicking the file, choosing “Open with…” and clicking on Windows Disc Image Burner.

3 Things You Should Know About Your Windows 7 Firewall



windows 7 firewall The Windows 7 Firewall is software that controls your network traffic. Its default behavior is to allow outbound traffic and deny inbound traffic. Most programs that require a change from the default settings however, can add custom rules to the Windows 7 Firewall, requiring only minimal user input. This makes the Windows 7 Firewall a very convenient tool because it doesn’t require a lot of attention or knowledge to set it up and use.
There are a few things however, you should be aware of when you are using the Windows 7 Firewall. While outlining a few important points, this article will introduce you to the basic features of the Windows 7 Firewall, and you will learn how to easily customize its behavior.

1. Choosing A Network Location Determines Firewall Settings

When you connect to a new network, Windows asks you whether this is a Home, Work, or Public Network. The selection has an impact not only on the network settings, but also on how your Windows 7 Firewall treats network traffic.
windows 7 firewall
Once you have assigned a network to a certain profile, i.e. home, work, or public, the firewall rules for that profile apply to this network connection. You can customize the settings for each profile, i.e. network type and thus create multiple active firewall profiles.
If you are unsure which profile you assigned your network to, you can go to the Windows Firewall Control Panel application through > Start > Control Panel > System and Security > Windows Firewall or simply search for > Windows Firewall in the > Start search box. Here you will find which network you are connected to and which settings apply to it. If your computer is connected to a domain, you may also see a profile called > Domain networks.
windows 7 firewall review
You should know that in terms of firewall settings, there is no difference between a home or a work network. Both are considered private and are thus thrown into the same pot. If you are using a WiFi connection at work, however, you might consider designating it as a public network and thus assign it a more restrictive network profile.

2. You Can Allow Or Deny Programs To Communicate Through the Windows Firewall Based on the Network Group

As mentioned above, a firewall controls network traffic and can deny programs to communicate through your connection. By default, the Windows 7 Firewall blocks inbound connections and allows outbound connections. However, you can customize this behavior.
The simple way to do this is to go to > Start and type > allow program in the search field. Click the first link that says > Allow a program through Windows Firewall. This will open the list of > Allowed Programs, which really is a list of allowed and denied programs, though.
It’s a list of both because you can set a checkmark to allow or deny programs to communicate through the Windows Firewall or you can click the > Allow another program… button to add a program not yet on the list. To make changes, you may first have to click the > Change settings button.
windows 7 firewall review
As you can see in the screenshot above, you can choose a different behavior based on the type of network you are connected to. Dropbox, for example, has added itself to the list and is set to communicate only when connected to a private or home network, while traffic via a public network is disabled. That’s why it’s important to choose a network type as outlined in point one.

3. Allowing Programs to Add Custom Rules to the Firewall

As seen with the Dropbox example above, some programs add themselves to the list of allowed or denied programs. Typically, this requires user input as it changes the default behavior of the Windows 7 Firewall, for example by allowing inbound traffic for the respective program. When you install a new program and are asked to confirm an exception, you should carefully review this request before you click > Allow access, as you are potentially opening the gates for malicious software.
windows 7 firewall review
You can also check the status of notifications in the Windows Firewall Control Panel application. Click > Change notifications settings in the left-hand sidebar, and be sure that your Windows Firewall is turned on. If you wish to be notified of changes, check > Notify me when Windows Firewall blocks a new program.
windows 7 firewall
If you ever find that you have issues with inbound traffic because a program didn’t add itself to the list of allowed programs, don’t make the mistake of opening an entire port. It is much safer to just add this program to the list of allowed programs manually, than to open a port.
