Now-a-days almost all 3rd party software require <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><b><a href="http://www.askvg.com/what-is-microsoft-net-framework-download-links-for-all-versions-inside/">Microsoft .NET Framework</a></b></span>
installed in your system. The required .NET Framework version might be
different for different software and the most required .NET Framework
version is <b>3.5</b> which comes preinstalled in Windows 7.<br />
If you are using <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><b><a href="http://www.askvg.com/windows-8-review-whats-new-in-windows-8-developer-preview/">Windows 8</a></b></span>,
you might face a problem while trying to run a program which requires
.NET Framework 3.5 version. Windows 8 doesn't come with .NET Framework
3.5 version. It comes with the latest .NET Framework 4.5 version
preinstalled.<br />
Whenever you try to open a program requiring .NET Framework 3.5, you get following message:<br />
<blockquote>
An app on your PC needs the following Windows feature:<br />
.NET Framework 3.5 (includes .NET 2.0 and 3.0)</blockquote>
<img alt="NET_Framework_Error_Message_Windows_8.png" src="http://media.askvg.com/articles/images4/NET_Framework_Error_Message_Windows_8.png" /><br />
There are 2 buttons given to install the .NET Framework version or to
skip the installation. If you decide to install it, Windows tries to
connect to Internet to download the setup files of .NET Framework 3.5.<br />
That's strange because Windows 8 setup contains .NET Framework 3.5
setup files but still Windows tries to connect to Internet. It would
have been better and easier if Windows 8 installed the .NET Framework
3.5 without Internet connection just like it does for other Windows
components such as Media Center, Internet Explorer, etc which can be
installed or uninstalled using "Programs and Features" applet in Control
Panel.<br />
If you don't have an Internet connection or if you don't want to
waste time and bandwidth in downloading the setup files, here is a way
to <b>install .NET Framework 3.5 offline in Windows 8</b>.<br />
Today in this tutorial, we'll tell you how to install .NET Framework
3.5 in Windows 8 without any need of Internet connection. You can
install it offline with the help of a single command. This method
requires Windows 8 setup disc or ISO file so make sure you have Windows 8
setup files with you.<br />
So without wasting time lets start the tutorial:<br />
<b>1.</b> First you'll need to copy Windows 8 setup files
to your hard disk. If you have Windows 8 setup ISO copied in your
system, you can mount it by right-click on it and select "Mount" option
or you can extract its content using <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a href="http://www.askvg.com/7-zip-free-and-open-source-file-archive-utility-for-windows-and-linux/">7-Zip</a></span>.<br />
If you have Windows 8 setup disc and don't want to copy its content,
its ok. Just insert the disc in your CD/DVD drive so that Windows can
access its content.<br />
<b>2.</b> Now open <b>Command Prompt</b> as Administrator as mentioned <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a href="http://www.askvg.com/guide-different-ways-to-open-command-prompt-as-administrator-in-windows/">here</a></span> and then provide following command:<br />
<blockquote>
Dism /online /enable-feature /featurename:NetFx3 /All /Source:<b>F:</b>\sources\sxs /LimitAccess</blockquote>
Here "F:" represents the CD/DVD drive letter in your system which
contains Windows 8 setup disc. Replace it with the correct drive letter
according to your system.<br />
If you extracted Windows 8 setup files in a directory, replace F:\sources\sxs with the correct path.<br />
<b>3.</b> As soon as you execute the above mentioned
command, Windows will start installing .NET Framework 3.5 in your system
and it'll not require Internet connection.<br />
<img alt="Install_NET_Framework_Offline_Windows_8.png" src="http://media.askvg.com/articles/images4/Install_NET_Framework_Offline_Windows_8.png" /><br />
It'll take a few minutes and you'll get a message that the operation completed successfully.<br />
<b>4.</b> That's it. Now you have installed .NET Framework 3.5 in Windows 8 without using Internet connection.<br />
<b>PS:</b> If you face any problem while using this method,
you can take help of following exclusive AskVG app to automatically
install .NET Framework 3.5 offline in Windows 8 and 8.1:<br />

Not getting any idea how to make good layout in Android
activity or not getting how any application doing that things which you
want in your project but you don’t know how to implement it in your APK
File. So, I came here with new technology & new thinking which can
make you crazy in android world.Now time for backtracking…start your
time to do hacking. Do you know you can get source code of Android APK
file? Time to break the code..Let’s learn step by step.</div>
In this tutorial we will learn how to convert android APK
file into source code. Android .apk file is a compressed form of a file
which contains Java classes (in .dex form), XML files and all necessary
files. So first we will learn how to get Java source File from android
apk using dex2jar and Java decompiler tools and then we will learn how
to get XML source file using apktool and apkinstall tools.To get the
source code from APK file, we will need these tools:1. <span style="color: red;"><a href="http://code.google.com/p/dex2jar/" style="color: #cc6511;" target="_blank"><span style="color: red;">dex2jar</span></a></span><br />
2. <span style="color: red;"><a href="http://jd.benow.ca/" style="color: #cc6511;" target="_blank"><span style="color: red;">java</span> <span style="color: red;">decompiler</span></a></span><br />
3. <a href="http://code.google.com/p/android-apktool/downloads/detail?name=apktool1.4.1.tar.bz2&can=2&q=" style="color: #cc6511;" target="_blank"><span style="color: red;">apktool</span></a><br />
4. <span style="color: red;"><a href="http://code.google.com/p/android-apktool/downloads/detail?name=apktool-install-windows-r04-brut1.tar.bz2" style="color: #cc6511;" target="_blank"><span style="color: red;">apkinstall</span></a></span><b>Steps to get source: </b><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><b>Get Java files from apk:</b></span>
1. Rename the .apk file into .zip file (example SharedPr.apk into SharedPr.zip).<br />
2. Extract SharedPr.zip file and copy classes.dex file from extracted folder.<br />
3. Extract dex2jar.zip and paste classes.dex into dex2jar folder.<br />
3. Open command prompt and change directory to the dex2jar folder. Then write <b><i>dex2jar classes.dex</i></b> and press enter. Now you will get<i><b> </b></i><b><i>classes.dex.dex2jar</i></b> file in the same folder.<br />

<div class="tab">
<span class="tips">Bonus Tip:</span> While in a browser pressing and holding Ctrl while clicking on any <a href="http://www.computerhope.com/jargon/l/link.htm">link</a> will open a menu with options for that link.</div>
<h2>
Ctrl key and mouse click or highlight</h2>
<div class="tab">

left-click to select multiple objects or highlight multiple sections of
text. For example, in the below selection box if you wanted to highlight
more than on eof the itmes listed you could hold down Ctrl and select
each item you want highlighted. </div>
<form action="" class="tab" method="post" name="form1">
<label for="Example"></label>
</form>
<div class="tab">
<br /></div>
<div class="tab">
<span class="tips">Bonus Tip:</span> <a href="http://www.computerhope.com/jargon/f/firefox.htm">Mozilla Firefox</a> users can also hold down the Ctrl key and individually click on each <a href="http://www.computerhope.com/jargon/c/cell.htm">cell</a> in a <a href="http://www.computerhope.com/jargon/t/table.htm">table</a>
they wish to copy or drag their mouse down a row to select just that
row or text without selecting any of the other text in that table.</div>
<h2>
Use the mouse side buttons</h2>
<div class="tab">
Many new computer mice also have buttons on the
side of the mouse. These buttons can be programmed to do anything,
however, by default the left-thumb button can be used to go back on a
web page. This makes browsing the Internet more enjoyable since you do
not need to move the mouse <a href="http://www.computerhope.com/jargon/c/cursor.htm">cursor</a> to the browser back arrow button in order to go back a page.</div>
<h2>
Use the Windows Snap To feature</h2>
<div class="tab">
Take full advantage of the Windows mouse <b>Snap To</b>
feature, which will automatically move your mouse to buttons that
appear in a dialog box. For example, if you delete a file or close a
window you may get a prompt asking you if you are sure you want to
perform the task. With the Snap To feature enabled, the mouse cursor
automatically moves to the Ok button, so all you will have to do is
click the mouse button if you agree. This saves you the time of having
to move the mouse cursor over to the Ok button and then click Ok.</div>
<div class="tab">
To enable this feature open the Mouse properties under the Windows <a href="http://www.computerhope.com/jargon/c/controlp.htm">Control Panel</a> and check the Snap To check box under the Pointer Options tab.</div>
<div class="tab">
<span class="tips">Bonus Tip:</span> While
changing this feature we also suggest looking at other available options
in the Mouse settings. For example, increasing the Motion speed can
also help increase your productivity while using the mouse.</div>
<h2>
Manage the open window with the mouse</h2>
<div class="tab">
Double-click the top <a href="http://www.computerhope.com/jargon/t/titlebar.htm">title bar</a> of any <a href="http://www.computerhope.com/jargon/w/window.htm">window</a>
to maximize a window or if it is already maximized resize it to a
window. You can also double-click the icon for the window in the
top-left corner of the window to close that window.</div>
<h2>
Move the mouse with your keyboard</h2>
<div class="tab">
Instead of using the mouse that came with your computer you can also <a href="http://www.computerhope.com/issues/ch000542.htm">enable Windows to use the number pad as a mouse</a>.</div>
<h2>
Customize your mouse</h2>
<div class="tab">
Finally, if you have a mouse with more than two
buttons, installing the included mouse software will allow you to
customize the mouse even more. For example, if you don't use the side
buttons to move back and forth in a web page change it to something you
do more often, such as switching between open windows or opening the
calculator.</div>

If
the USB flash drive is of sufficient capacity, say 8GB, then after
copying the Windows 7 installation DVD onto it, you can create a new
folder (ex: Device <a href="http://goo.gl/AMwBBs" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Drivers</a>) in the USB key and place all of your latest <a href="http://goo.gl/AMwBBs" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">driver</a>
installation files in it. This way you will have them handy to manually
install the drivers after installing Windows 7 from the USB key.</div>

If
you booted from the USB drive to install Windows 7, then you may need
to change the hard drive back to being listed before the USB key in the
boot order in BIOS after the computer restarts during installation to
prevent the computer from booting right back into the USB key starting
the installation process over and over.</div>

If you are an fairly advanced computer user, at times you may need to
boot from devices other then the default hard-disk, mainly to
troubleshoot virus infections and other critical operating-system
related issues, I had shared tips on how to <a href="http://www.megaleecher.net/Bootzilla_Free_Bootable_CD" target="_blank">make bootable cd</a> for performing advance system tasks on windows. Today I will share few utilities enabling you to create <strong>bootable USB pen drives</strong> with ease, you need to have Motherboard/BIOS with USB boot support for this to work.
<br />
<strong>MakeBootable</strong> is an free and simple-to-use utility to
make your Pen Drive act as a boot-up disk without erasing any data on
the device. It consists of a single executable file and requires no
installation, However the utility will only work on USB device's using
Phison’s chip solution and FAT file-system only (you can re-format your
drives to FAT easily). <br />
<div align="center">
<img alt="Bootable USB" src="http://cdn.megaleecher.net/uploads/usb_bootable.jpg" />
</div>
<strong>Direct Download :</strong> <a href="http://www.megaleecher.net/uploads/Make_bootable.zip" target="_blank">Make_bootable.zip</a> (465Kb)<br />
If the above utility fails to recognize your USB drive you can download and use the <a href="http://www.bootdisk.com/plan30/hpflash1.zip" target="_blank"><strong>HP USB Format Utility</strong></a> and <a href="http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareDescription.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&swItem=MTX-UNITY-I23839&jumpid=reg_R1002_USEN" target="_blank"><strong>HP USB Boot utility</strong></a>,
They work with other brands of flash drives as well, The best software
for creating bootable flash drives with the most extensive support of
drives and advance options would be "<a href="http://www.prime-expert.com/flashboot/download.php" target="_blank"><strong>FlashBoot</strong></a>" from PrimeExpert but its not free and costs around $31, you can <a href="http://www.prime-expert.com/flashboot/download.php" target="_blank">download and try the demo version.</a><br />
<div align="center">
<img alt="FlashBoot" src="http://cdn.megaleecher.net/uploads/flashboot.gif" />
</div>
There are quite a few other manual methods to make usb devices bootable as discussed <a href="http://www.bootdisk.com/pendrive.htm" target="_blank">here</a>,
once you succeed in making your USB drive bootable using any of the
method discussed above, You need to change the boot-up setting in the
system BIOS as described below to boot using your portable device:<br />
<ol>
<li>With your device inserted, restart the machine.</li>
<li>Enter the BIOS setup menu to change the boot device setting.</li>
<li>If the boot-up files are created in the USB drive, select USB-HDD or
USB-ZIP (preferred). If the boot-up files are created in the floppy
drive of your device, select USB-FDD (for Pen Drive that supports
security mode). </li>
<div align="center">
<img alt="USB Boot BIOS Setting" src="http://cdn.megaleecher.net/uploads/bios_usb_boot.jpg" />
</div>
<li>Save and exit the BIOS setup. You should be able to boot up with you USB device.</li>

The capacity of your external flash drive is large: 8GB, 16GB, or
more. There is enough free space on the drive. You can copy the smaller
files to the external drive just fine. Yet, when you attempt to copy a
large file (4GB or larger) to the external drive, Windows gives you an
error (such as: <i>There is not enough free space on the drive</i>, or similar.) Does this sound familiar?<br />
If you experience such a problem, most probably it’s caused by the fact that your flash drive is formatted with the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fat32#FAT32" target="_blank" title="More information about the FAT32 file system">FAT32 file system</a>.
This type of a file system has a built-in limitation on the size of the
files that it may contain. Although the total size of the files that
you can copy to a FAT32 drive could be as large as 2TB (or the physical
capacity of the drive, whichever is smaller), the size of each
individual file may not exceed 4GB. <br />
This limitation may sound silly: why would anyone design a system
that would not allow for the larger files? The problem is, when the
FAT32 file system was designed (that was back in the days of Windows
95), no one anticipated that we would have such large files in use
today. Or, maybe the designers hoped that by the time such large files
become common, the use of the FAT32 system would be replaced by the more
modern systems.<br />
In any case, how to solve the problem of copying the 4GB files? Easy:
you need to replace the FAT32 file system on the drive with the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NTFS" target="_blank" title="More information about the NTFS file system">NTFS file system</a>.
The latter does not have the 4GB file size limitation, and it also
allows for many other functions not supported by FAT32: file security,
encryption, compression, etc.<br />
One caveat, however: the older versions of Windows (such as Windows
95, 98, or Windows Millennium, remember those?) do not support the NTFS
file system. If you plan on using the drive with such old computers,
then DO NOT format the drive with NTFS, because you won’t be able to get
the old Windows to recognize it anyway. If, however, you only plan on
using the drive with the more recent versions of Windows, such as
Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Vista, and of course Windows 7, such
computers should work with the NTFS drives just fine.<br />
<h2>
How to change the drive from FAT32 to NTFS format?</h2>
There are several ways to go. If the drive is empty or contains no
important files of yours, the easiest way is to use the Windows Format
command to format the drive with the NTFS file system. Specifically:<br />
1. Attach the external flash drive to the computer, wait for Windows to recognize it and assign a new drive letter to it.<br />
2. Open the Computer folder and locate the drive letter assigned to
the flash drive you want to format with NTFS (in the example below, it’s
drive F:)<br />
3. Before continuing, open the drive in a window and make sure it’s
empty or does not contain any important files, because after you format a
drive, all information that was on it will be erased! If there are
files on the drive that you want to keep, take this opportunity to copy
them over to the hard drive or some other drive.<br />
4. If you are sure that the external drive contains no important
files of yours, go back to the Computer folder, and right click on the
icon of the external drive:<br />
<div align="center">
<a class="facebox" href="http://www.winability.com/info/format-flash-drive-menu.png" rel="facebox" title="Choose Format from the shortcut menu after right-clicking on the external drive"><img alt="Windows offers the Format command on the shortcut menu" border="0" height="310" src="http://www.winability.com/info/format-flash-drive-menu-sm.png" width="360" /><br /><small>(Click to enlarge)</small></a>
</div>
5. Select <i>Format</i> from the menu, and then choose the formatting options:<br />
<div align="center">
<img alt="Options for formatting the external drive with NTFS file system" src="http://www.winability.com/info/format-flash-drive.png" /></div>
6. Make sure to select NTFS in the File System drop-down list. That’s
what determines the kind of a file system that the drive should have.
Also, you may want to select the <i>Quick Format</i> option, which should speed up the formatting process quite considerably.<br />
7. Press <i>Start</i>, and Windows should warn you once again about
erasing any existing information on the drive (see step 3 above). Again,
if you are sure the drive does not contain any irreplaceable documents,
confirm that you want to proceed with the formatting:<br />
<div align="center">
<img alt="Windows warns you about erasing the existing files during the drive formatting" src="http://www.winability.com/info/format-flash-drive-warning.png" /></div>
8. If you’ve selected the <i>Quick format</i> option, the formatting should take no longer than a minute or two. <br />
As a result, you should have the same drive, but now it should have
the NTFS files system on it. Now you should be able to copy the files
larger than 4GB to the drive just fine.<br />
In addition to formatting a drive with the NTFS file system, Windows
also offers a way to convert a FAT32 drive to NTFS. The difference is
that the conversion process would keep the existing files on the drive.
See <i>Windows Help and Support</i> of your computer for the instructions on how to do the conversion. <br />

One last note: our encryption software <a href="http://www.winability.com/usbcrypt/">USBCrypt</a>
can create a NTFS-formatted Virtual Encrypted Disk even if the host
drive is formatted with FAT32. This suggests yet another solution:
instead of formatting the host disk with NTFS, you can instead use
USBCrypt to create a NTFS-formatted Virtual Encrypted Disk. If you do
that, then in addition to breaking the 4GB file size barrier, you would
also get the strong security and password protection for files you put
inside of the Virtual Encrypted Disk.

Using ip hiding softwares even pro for pc reduces our internet speed by 50% or more here is a cool trick just<br />
<span id="more-682"></span><br />
goto<br />
<a href="http://translate.google.com/">translate.google.com</a><br />
input ur address there and choose a language you know example indians can choose hindi<br />
now just click translate and that website will be opened with another/fake ip.<br />
Alternatively<br />
just open the site you want to,directly in one tab,and in other tab open
it with translate,now refer to the orginal site in order to understand
and use the translated site,<br />
in order to assure that your ip is hidden just open whatismyip directly
in one tab, and whatismyip with translate and you will see both ip’s are
different,the former will be original and the latter will be fake.<br />

In July 2006 Microsoft released the Windows-hosted version as a free product. In August 2006 Microsoft announced the Macintosh-hosted version would not be ported to Intel-based Macintosh computers, effectively discontinuing the product as PowerPC-based Macintosh computers are no longer manufactured. The newest release, Windows Virtual PC, does not run on versions of Windows earlier than Windows 7, and does not officially run MS-DOS or operating systems earlier than Windows XP SP3 Professional. The older versions, which support a wider range of host and guest operating systems, remain available.<br />
Virtual PC virtualizes a standard PC and its associated hardware. Supported Windows operating systems can run inside Virtual PC. Other operating systems such as Linux may run, but are not officially supported, and Microsoft does not provide the necessary drivers (called "Virtual Machine Additions") for Linux.<br />

Windows XP has a built-in feature that called "Internet Connection Sharing" (ICS) that allows home users to share their internet connections on multiple computers. <br />
If you are not familiar with the network configurations, the easiest way to share your internet connection is to purchase a router or hub. Use this trick only if you don't have a router, or don't want to use a router, or if you just want to try out the feature. <br />
A simple way to understand this feature is, you are making your host computer (the computer directly connects to the internet) functioning as a router for other computers. <br />
<br />
<u>What do you need?</u><br />
<br />
<ul><li>A "Host" computer that running Windows XP. This computer must have at least TWO (2) network adapters. One adapter - let's call it "<b>Adapter #1</b>" - connects to the internet and another, "<b>Adapter #2</b>", connects to a hub or directly to other computers. </li>
<li>Client computer(s), which run any version of Windows. A client computer can be connected to the host computer directly by a cross-over cable or indirectly through a hub. </li>
<li>This trick assumes that the host computer is connected to the internet and you are able to access the internet on this computer. </li>
</ul><br />
<u>Configure the Host Computer</u><br />
<br />
<ol><li>Logon the host computer as Administrator. </li>
<li>Click <b>Start</b> >> <b>Control Panel</b>. </li>
<li>Click <b>Network and Internet Connections</b>. </li>
<li>Click <b>Network Connections</b>. </li>
<li>Right-click the connection that you use to connect to the internet (the connection with Adapter #1). This connection can be either a high-speed internet connection or a dial-up connection. </li>
<li>Click <b>Properties</b>. </li>
<li>Click <b>Advanced</b> tab. </li>
<li>Under <b>Internet Connection Sharing</b>, <b>select the Allow other network users to connect through this computer's Internet connection</b> check box. </li>
<li>If you are sharing a dial-up Internet connection, select the <b>Establish a dial-up connection whenever a computer on my network attempts to access the Internet</b> check box if you want to permit your computer to automatically connect to the Internet. </li>
<li>Click <b>OK</b>. You'll reieve the following message:<br />
<i>When Internet Connection Sharing is enabled, your LAN adapter will be set to use IP address 192.168.0.1. Your computer may lose connectivity with other computers on your network. If these other computers have static IP addresses, it is a good idea to set them to obtain their IP addresses automatically. Are you sure you want to enable Internet Connection Sharing?</i> </li>
<li>Click <b>Yes</b>. </li>
</ol><u>Configure the Client Computer(s)</u><br />
To use the shared connection from the Host computer, a client computer must be configured with "Automatic IP address". The main configurations are: <br />
<ol><li>Configure TCP/IP Automatic IP </li>
<li>Configure Internet Connection </li>
</ol>The steps for the above two configurations are vary on different versions of Windows.<br />
The following procedures are for Windows XP client computers. <ol><li> Log on to the client computer as Administrator or as Owner. </li>
<li> Click <b>Start</b> >> <b>Control Panel</b>. </li>
<li> Click <b>Network and Internet Connections</b>. </li>
<li> Click <b>Network Connections</b>. </li>
<li> Right-click <b>Local Area Connection</b>, and then click <b>Properties</b>. </li>
<li> Click the <b>General</b> tab, click <b>Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)</b> in the <b>This connection uses the following items list</b>, and then click <b>Properties</b>. </li>
<li> In the <b>Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) Properties</b> dialog box, click <b>Obtain an IP address automatically</b> (if it is not already selected), and then click <b>OK</b>. <br />
<br />
<br />
</li>
<li>Click <b>Start</b> >> <b>Control Panel</b> </li>
<li>Click <b>Network and Internet Connections</b>. </li>
<li>Click <b>Internet Options</b>. </li>
<li>In the <b>Internet Properties</b> dialog box, click the <b>Connections</b> tab. </li>
<li>Click the <b>Setup</b> button. The <b>New Connection Wizard</b> starts. </li>
<li>On the <b>Welcome to the New Connection Wizard</b> page, click <b>Next</b>. </li>
<li>Click <b>Connect to the Internet</b>, and then click <b>Next</b>. </li>
<li>Click <b>Set up my connection manually</b>, and then click <b>Next</b>. </li>
<li>Click <b>Connect using a broadband connection that is always on</b>, and then click <b>Next</b>. </li>
<li>On the <b>Completing the New Connection Wizard</b> page, click <b>Finish</b>. </li>
<li>Exit <b>Control Panel</b> and test the internet. You might need to restart the computer. </li>

</h2>Somebody just told you that you need to have Adobe Acrobat (Writer) to create a PDF file? Guess what, you can get away from that pricey piece of software if you just need to convert some documents to pdf, without a need of fancy editing the pdf document. <br />
Here's how. Thanks to the BullZip, who provides a Free Pdf printer. With this free tool, you can simply "print out" your document or webpage to a pdf file, just about the same way as you print it out to a printer.<br />
<br />
You can visit <a href="http://www.bullzip.com/">BullZip.com</a> for more information about the software. <br />
Here the direct link to BullZip downloads page: <a href="http://www.bullzip.com/products/pdf/info.php#download">Downloads</a> <br />
<ol><li>To get started, first follow the link above and download Free Pdf Printer from BullZip, then install it to your computer. </li>
<li>Once you're done, you might need to close the program (or the web browser) which you're currently viewing the document. This helps refreshing the list of available printers on your computer. </li>
<li>Once you get back to the document you want to convert, perform the same steps are you print out the document, i.e. File > Print ... </li>
<li>When you see the Print window pop-up, select "<b>Bullzip PDF Printer</b>" under "Printers", then click "<b>OK</b>". </li>
<li>BullZip PDF Printer will then start to analyze your document and display a new pop-up window, where you can direct it to the location you want to save the pdf file. </li>
<li>Follow the pop-up windows and.. hola! The PDF document is created! </li>

You can temporary change it by just right-click and select "<b>View</b>" >> "<b>Thumbnails</b>". But if you want to change the folder so that everytime you come back, the folder itself, as well as all its subfolders, display the contents as photo thumbnails. <br />
<u>Here's How</u><br />
<br />
<div><br />
<li>Right-click on the folder you choose and select "<b>Properties</b>"<br />

<li>Check on "<b>Also apply this template to all subfolders</b>" to apply the setting to subfoders as well<br />
