This virtual TrueCrypt volume can be kept hidden thus making the files invisible. TrueCrypt can also encrypt an entire drive, partition or even an external storage device like a USB drive. As further evidence of its capabilities, TrueCrypt can also encrypt the Windows boot partition or the entire boot drive. Furthermore it has the ability to create and run a hidden encrypted operating system. With these advanced features, TrueCrypt has become a power user’s favorite t
3. Now, go back to C:Test and look for your file or folder, it’s not there! You cannot find it through simply browsing around, Windowsmastery.Com through the command prompt, or even if you click “Show Hidden Files and Folde
If you think that freeware and industrial strength file security can never meet, the open source TrueCrypt could prove you wrong. TrueCrypt not only encrypts data (using 256-bit AES and 448-bit Blowfish algorithms) but also cloaks the files in hidden volumes. TrueCrypt functions by creating a virtual encrypted disk which appears as a real disk volume. Files can be encrypted on the fly when moved into this volume and decrypted when moved
Constants library – If you have difficulties remembering the value for atomic mass or astronomical units, don’t worry, it is all documented in the constants library. This library contains most of the constant values you will ever n
In access of the above features, SpeedCrunch allows you to save your session so that you can resume from where you stopped the last time. Your history and variables will be intact the next time you load up the sess
4. To find the folder and it’s contents again simply go back to the command prompt, type “CD C:Test” (of course, again replacing “Test” with the name of the folder,) and then type “attrib filename -s -h”. You should now be able to find your file ag
There are plenty of features that make SpeedCrunch very user-friendly and very easy to use. First, there is the evaluate-as-you-type feature that calculates the result when you are typing the expression. Even before you press Enter, the result may already appear in the status
For simplicity – yes. For encryption – no. The application allows you to assign a password to a single LockBox folder. If you want to handle multiple files or folders, you have to pull everything into a master folder and lock it. The locked folder disappears from view and cannot be accessed by anyone without the password. The folder according to the developer’s website is also not accessible remotely, through DOS or the safe m
Then comes JetPhoto Studio , an all-in-one photo tool (available for Mac and Windows). This application is a bit unknown because developed by Chinese programmer. But unknown doesn’t mean bad because this app has tons of good featu
For advanced calculation, you will need to use variables to hold calculation results. SpeedCrunch allows you to define as many variables as you want. There are also pre-defined variables such as pi that you can use off- h
I personally find JetPhoto Studio to be very helpful, and my Flickr free account is already showing the limitation nags. What’s your personal favorite for all-in-one photo management tool? Spill everything in the comments be
Even though I’m not much of a photo person, I do manage my photos. Mostly just collecting-grouping-tagging-retouching (using iPhoto), and resizing (using now not free anymore ImageWell) to be able to easily send to my friend or use the image for my b
Of course you cannot just sort mails into folders. You can have the message filters perform several other actions as seen in the menu pictured above. For example, automatically “Mark As Read”, “Tag Message” or (the coolest) reply with a template. If required you can have the message filter carry out multiple actions on the same eM
Malware is a whole different ballgame, and is much more common and prevalent in today’s “internet” world. A common, everyday search can easily ring in loads of pop-ups, adware, and deeply buried malware, spying on keystrokes, monitoring cookies and just being down right annoying. The problem is that it’s always evolving, and many protective products can’t always prevent malicious activity. However, that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t attempt to block
Cryptainer does exactly as it advertises. The 3MB freeware creates encrypted vaults (plainspeak for an encrypted disk volume) which can be used to store any files in any media including USB drives. Multiple disks volumes can thus be created. The user can hide any file within the strong 128 bit encrypted password protected vault. Secure emails can also be sent using the encryption algorithm. Drag and drop any file into the “˜vault’ and it gets encrypted. The Cryptainer “˜vault’ is invisible so it effectively cloaks any file within
An extra feature that plays no part in the mathematical calculations, but is still useful, is the language localization. In fact, SpeedCrunch supports 22 languages and you can switch to your favorite language eas
