Windows Registry Maintenance.

From the perspective of a computer repair tech, maintaining the Windows registry is no big deal. Because of my years of experience, I'm perfectly comfortable opening the regedit utility and making changes to improve the stability and overall performance of a PC. Sometimes I forget though, just how dicey it can be to make sweeping changes to the Windows Registry and as a rule, this type of maintenance should only be performed by an experienced computer professional. That being said, there are always a few adventurous types who like to tinker with their computer, and to those people I say "Atta Boy!" There is really nothing wrong with trying to improve your PC by making changes to the registry as long as you know beforehand that it can be risky and are willing to accept that risk. After all, the benefits gained from optimizing the registry can be significant if done properly (and carefully!)


For those of you who aren't familiar, the Windows registry is a special folder in the operating system that contains pretty much all of the information that Windows needs to run properly. All of this information is stored in a hierarchy of keys and values pertaining to different functions of Windows and all programs and settings on the computer.

HOW TO DELETE FACEBOOK ACCOUNT ?

Facebook


Facebook offers two options to deactivate the user account. You can either (a) deactivate your account or (b) permanently delete it.

The deactivation method is much easier to find than the permanent deletion option because if you deactivate your Facebook account, your profile information will still be saved such as your friends, photos, interests, etc. On the other hand, permanently deleting your account will remove all of your information from Facebook and nothing will be saved.



To deactivate your account:

• Hover your mouse over the Settings menu in the top right of any Facebook page and click on “Account Settings”.

• Click on the “Deactivate Account” link at the bottom of the page.

To permanently delete your account:

• Click on Help at the bottom of any Facebook page.

• Search for “delete account” in the search box underneath the Help Center heading.

• Click on the “I want to permanently delete my account” link and read the 2 paragraphs there.

• Click on the link at the end of the last paragraph, read what’s there and then click the “Submit” button.
