YouTube has a feature of ‘watch later’ in order to see our favorite videos later. But it requires an active network connection again to view the videos repeatedly. But the ‘watch later’ option doesn’t allows us to watch videos once the internet connection is gone.
To save YouTube videos permanently to your device you need a third party site or tool. You can easily download the videos using the site savefrom.net.
After opening the site you open the video you want to download in another window. Then copy the URL address of the video and paste it on the site as follows.
Click the Download button and your video will start download soon. Now you can enjoy your favorite videos on your own device without internet connection.
Through Windows 8 Microsoft had opened a new platform in front of users. Although it seems to be mixed reaction about Microsoft’s latest release, Windows 8 is turned to be a new and refreshing experience for users who were only used desktop interface Operating Systems.
Windows 8 came with dual interface that can be switched, one is tile based interface and other desktop. For users of devices such as tablets the Starting interface must be a comfort one. But for normal PC users the desktop interface is more comfort and usually they will switch to this immediately the start screen appears.
So by considering this Microsoft had come with a solution to switch directly to Desktop mode skipping the start screen through Windows 8.1. Here is the way to boot your system directly to Desktop.
Search for Task Bar and Navigation and click on it
In the opened window choose navigation bar and check the box next to “Go to the desktop instead of Start when I sign in” under Start screen
Then restart your computer and it will boot directly to desktop.
There are many commercial Antivirus softwares are available to protect your PC from threats such as Bitdefender, Kaspersky etc…. And they are considered as best among all others. But not all PC users use commercial version of softwares and the normal users will download free version of software and install them on PC.
Many of the commercial antivirus developers also release their free version of antiviruses with limited features, such as Bitdefender, Avast etc….. We have to know that the free version of antiviruses is strong enough to detect the threats or whether it is actually monitoring the PC. Here is a simple technique to know that.
This can be considered as a standard test and if your antivirus passes this test then it is good antivirus and monitoring your PC.
To test, Copy the below code in Notepad and save the file with .exe or .com extension (Such as testantivirus.exe or test.com or antivirus.exe).
Then run the .exe or .com file and if your antivirus detect it as a threat then the antivirus is strong and can be considered as good. Otherwise switch in to a different one…!!!!

We all are seen in some of the websites or blogs are written in regional language. In social media sites also people used to type in their own language. There are several methods to type in your own language through your phone or PC. Here I am going to mention about a Google service which is one of the easiest and convenient way to type in your language.
The available service is ‘Google Input tools’. Earlier the service is only available for PC users(Windows). But now it is available for android devices and as a Google Chrome extension. So it means we can type in your own language at anywhere as it is now available as chrome extension and in android devices.
Currently Google input tool for Windows is available in 22 regional languages. Amharic, Arabic, Bengali, Persian, Greek, Gujarati, Hebrew, Hindi, Kannada, Malayalam, Marathi, Nepali, Oriya, Punjabi, Russian, Sanskrit, Serbian, Sinhala, Tamil, Telugu, Tigrinya and Urdu.
Now you can communicate in the language you need whether it is at home, at work, or somewhere in between. It’s one benefit is it remember your corrections and maintains a custom dictionary for new or uncommon words and names. Google Input Tool will be a useful and user friendly utility for you in the case of typing in your own language.
In order to make bootable version of any Microsoft operating system such as Windows 7 or Windows 8, we can use Windows 7 USB/DVD download tool. But sometimes if we browse and select the iso file the tool will show the error message that ‘the selected file is not a valid iso file’.
To solve this problem here I am familiarizing you with 2 powerful tools which deals with the CD/DVD Image Formats like ISO, .BIN, .IMG, .CIF, .NRG etc…. The tools are…
1. PowerISO
2.Magic ISO
Now I am going to show you how to use these tools to solve the problem.
1. Open the PowerISO/Magic ISO
2. Then go to file-> Image Properties
3. Select the image properties and click on the UDF check box
4. Then go to File -> save and save the iso file
That’s it now you can use the iso file without the error.
When we take an Internet connection from any service provider they are actually giving your PC a temporary IP address. So when we accessing the Internet facilities we are actually in a public network. This public network can be accessible by anyone and having less security measures.
If our modem is WiFi enabled then the signal can be accessible to any one within the range. So the primary security measure to secure your WiFi network is to set a secret password on the network. When a secret password is set for your network it will ask the security key before connecting any device.
Here is the method for setting password for your BSNL WiFi network.
If we download and use a trial version of windows operating system then microsoft will add a watermark at the right corner of the screen in order to remind you that you are using a preview version of the OS. Many users downloads the windows 8.1 preview version and annoyed of this watermark. Then you are at the right choice.
Here I am explaining a technique to avoid this watermark. The method have been tested in both 32 and 64 bit versions of Windows 8.1.
1. Click on the below link and download the zip file.
2. Unzip the downloaded file. As we are editing the files in the registry we have to have permissions to do that. So run the “Install_Take_Ownership” and this will add the contents of the file to the registry.
Run ‘Install_Take_Ownership’
Click ‘yes’.
3. Take Ownership of files.
Go to the directory ‘C:\Windows\System32\en-US’
here we have to edit two files and have to take ownership on them. They are…
C:\Windows\System32\en-US\shwll32.dll.mu
C:\Windows\System32\en-US\basebrd.dll.mu
Take Ownership
Right click on the file and select take ownership.
Take Ownership
4.Copy the respective files that are in the folder ‘Edited Files’ instead of the files that are in the given registry (2 files that we take ownership).
Copy the files
If you get an error message saying that the file is already in use, rename the file and then copy the new one.
5. Open Command Prompt
Right click on Command Prompt and Run as Administrator.
Open Command Prompt
6. Enter the command ‘mcbuilder’ and press enter
7. Restart your Computer
After restarting the computer the watermark will disappear.
8. Run ‘Uninstall Take Ownership’
Run ‘Uninstall Take Ownership’
If you have any trouble in these steps then try any of these
7. As we are here installing the fresh copy of the OS select custom installation 
If our modem is WiFi enabled then the signal can be accessible to any one within the range. So the primary security measure to secure your WiFi network is to set a secret password on the network. When a secret password is set for your network it will ask the security key before connecting any device.
7. Restart your Computer
