Every day we receive at the laboratory more charging device interfaces and / or communication USB type C ports. Some days ago we already made a guide to clarify some news regarding the USB interface. But today, looking for some adapters for this format, I have found clear evidence that anybody can have C-type connectors …
Maybe it’s time to renew your computer: find a computer that fits your needs in this new season. Or, on the other hand, you may only want to expand its power or capacity.
What do you need to know about the components of a computer to mount the best PC or get the right parts? Though at first this may be complex, the important parts of a computer that you must assess are not too many. Let’s get to know them better.
The hard drive is possibly one of the most important components of a computer: thanks to them you can store data and install the operating systems. There are several types of drives: magnetic hard drives (the most widespread), SSDs (new and fast) and hybrid drives that combine both technologies.
The Xbox One is undoubtedly one of the best you can find on the market, but for fear of lack of support and the price, many users prefer to continue using the Xbox 360.
Fortunately, this fear is unfounded, so this pad does not stop being a good choice if you seek a new joystick or you want to renew the one that you already have, because as we anticipated, you will be able to use it without problems in Windows, Linux and OS X, something that we will discuss in this article.
It is really easy to use the Xbox One in Windows 7 or higher, since Microsoft has released specific drivers for this version and Windows 8.1, while on Windows 10 the drivers come preinstalled by default, so everything is plug and play.
Synchronization in the cloud is as important when we use from our computer as when we use it in pendrive. It’s a perfect method to make sure that our documents are always updated and safeguarded in an accessible way from anywhere.
Some pendrive come from factory with this feature but SyncDocs allows us to do this in any USB flash drive since it has a specific version and is fully “portable”. It’s free, with reduced functionality, allowing us to transfers up to 10,000 files that can be expanded if we share the app with a friend. The license costs $20 per user and not per machine so we can use it on any computer we want. It’s what I call a flexible license that won’t try to get more money off if we change our PCs or Pendrives.
SyncDocs works only with Google Drive, and it’s almost its only limitation, and in its licensed version we can even synchronize folders someone has shared with us, synchronize network folders, multiple Google accounts, scheduled backups, etc. It is a very powerful tool.
The first thing you need to do, if this is the case, is to uninstall Adobe Flash if you have it installed. Browsers like Chrome already have their own preloaded plugins to implement flash, so that many of us can avoid having to install additional programs. In case you did this, you must uninstall it …
Windows 10 introduced some new features in the file browser, such as the new shortcuts to folders and recent files. By default, Windows 10 brings us to this option when we open the File explorer. If you’d like to change this option, you just have to go to the “View” tab in the File Browser, …
Maybe at some point you will note that our computer is filled with data too often (and you have to resort to using external hard drives or USB flash drives to extract files and information) or that you can’t install more applications, games or working with large files due to lack of space.
[toc]Then this is perhaps the best time to consider buying a new internal hard drive. These components allow you to extend the storage space of the computer, in many cases, without having to change anything in the current computer. We help you do this, step by step.
A new internal hard drive can be installed in several ways: to use as a primary drive and directly install the operating system (and thus you have all the new free space along in a single partition), or as a secondary drive, to complement the one that you already use as the system hard drive (where the operating system is installed) and using the new space to store data (movies, programs, photos, etc).
One of the most controversial features of Windows 10 is the “Wi-Fi Sense” that sharing Wifi key. Or rather private wireless access, including new contacts and social networks.
By default, Wi-Fi Sense is activated, but the measure is not as critical as it will depend in our use in the social networks when we are connected to bring that data to be published openly. For those who do not want to have this feature turned on, you have to perform a few simple steps.
Microsoft Edge is definitely a great browser, fast and effective, but perhaps we do not like much the default search engine so it’s always good to know how to modify it.
This trick does not affect Cortana, that as no option to change your search engine, so it applies only to searches performed through your own browser’s series of Windows 10. The change is simple but must be done properly.
The first thing is to open Edge. Once opens what we need to do is navigate to our favorite search engine. I choose Google but it can be any.
Once it is open the page, we can go to Edge Setting section. It is located in the “three dots” icon in the superior corner to the right. We enter to the configuration and once there we go to “View advance Settings”.
This trick is very simple and more than one is going to have a happy the day. The new browser Edge introduced in Windows 10 is a good method to gain speed of load, support hardware, reducing consumption of resources and even some users detect greater autonomy in their tablets and notebooks.
But a browser without your favorites links is like a garden without flowers, so the first thing we must do is to import the bookmarks from another alternative browser. like Firefox, Chrome. Then these favorites should be integrated in the synchronization that makes Microsoft with its cloud, that if you use an online account such as user profile.
