How To Set A Custom Logon Screen Background on windows 7

Windows makes it very possible to change the welcome screen that appears when you start your computer without any third-party software, but this setting is well hidden in Windows 7, although is much easier in Windows 8 or 10. You can actually set any image you like as your lock screen background on windows 7

How To Backup Firefox Bookmarks And Transfer To Anther Computer

windows Unknown 23:11:00

Mozilla Firefox allows you to store Web pages you visit often as bookmarks. Firefox automatically creates backups of your bookmarks and saves the last ten backups for safekeeping. Nevertheless, you can generate your own bookmark backup file manually and do anything you like with it.
Earlier today, I was able to save Firefox bookmarks on my laptop and restore the bookmarks on my new laptop. So, this makes it very easy for me to access the bookmarks on my old PC on the new PC. So, in this post, I've decided to share with you, how I was able to do that.

Steps to backing up and restoring Firefox bookmarks

Launch the Firefox browser on your PC.
Click the bookmarks icon
Scroll down and click "show all bookmarks" to open the library window.
In the Library window, click the "Import and Backup" button
Click "Export Bookmarks to HTML..."
Choose a location to save the file, which is named "bookmarks" by default. The desktop is usually a good spot, but any place that is easy to remember will work.
ave the file and close the Library window.

How to transfer Firefox bookmarks to another Computer

You can use a bookmark backup file from one computer and restore it on another computer.
So, place the bookmark backup file created earlier on your transfer media (e.g. a Flash drive) and copy it to the desktop (or any location) of the other computer.

Next is to go to Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks and click the "Import and Backup" button

Then, click "Import Bookmarks to HTML...."

After importing the backup file you created earlier, your bookmarks from that file will be restored. Close the Library window.

That's all.

NB: Restoring bookmarks from a backup will overwrite your current set of bookmarks with the ones in the backup file.

If you use the "BackUp" option, it will create a JSON file which might not be detectable by the other PC. So, use the "Export bookmarks to html..." option as recommended in this post.

How To Run an ISO file without Burning it to Disc with Windows Virtual cd Control Tool

windows Unknown 22:27:00

When Office products are downloaded from the Volume License Service Center, they come down as .ISO files. .ISO is not a file format that Windows can open natively. An ISO file is an image of a CD/DVD. Typically you would be able to use a burning program like Nero, Daemon tools, Windows disc image burner or a host of other programs to burn that ISO file directly to a disk.

ISO files which can also be called disc image can be run straight from your windows explorer without burning it to CD. You will need a third party disc burner to do this as windows disc image burner can only be used to burn ISO files to disc and not to run them on your system.
