Get/Pin Show Desktop Option in Windows 7 Taskbar

The Windows 7 Taskbar is certainly one of the most striking feature to be seen on Windows 7. It has got a lot more features than any other taskbar we have seen. Live Thumbnail Preview, Aero Peek, Jumplists etc are some of the feature that the Windows 7 Taskbar or the Superbar has. There is no need of explanation what the "Show Desktop" Option does in windows. It has got that magical ability to minimize all the opened windows and take us directly to the desktop. But with windows 7 the show desktop option disappeared from the taskbar and it was moved to the extreme right of the desktop which was called the Aero Peek Feature (of course it was Show Desktop for non aero). Since windows users have got used to the show desktop icon in the taskbar, here is a way to get/pin the Show Desktop Icon in the Windows 7 Taskbar Easily.

Show Desktop is a Free Tool that will help you to get the Show Desktop icon on the Windows 7 Taskbar.

Pin Show Desktop Option in Windows 7 Taskbar

You can use this tool on other windows versions too although it was made for windows 7. After installing the utility just drag the Show Desktop Option to the Windows 7 Taskbar.[via jkwebtalks ]

    The developer had added a new portable feature too. So taking the program along with us on the go wont be a problem. This is what the developer says about StrokeIt.
    StrokeIt is an advanced mouse gesture recognition engine and command processor. What is a mouse gesture? Mouse gestures are simple symbols that you "draw" on your screen using your mouse. When you perform a mouse gesture that StrokeIt can recognize, it will perform the "action" associated with that gesture. In short, it's a nifty little program that lets you easily control programs by drawing symbols with your mouse.

    StrokeIt can currently recognize more than 80 unique mouse gestures and can be easily trained to recognize many more. For each gesture recognized, StrokeIt can execute a user-defined set of commands within the active application. StrokeIt commands are defined within plugin libraries that can be easily created by third parties to do nearly anything.

    How to Copy/Paste Commands/Texts in Command Prompt in Windows

    Here i will explain how to copy/paste the commands or text inside the command prompt in windows.



    You might have used the Windows Command Prompt utility in Windows at least for some reason. It is really annoying to type all such long commands. If any where goes wrong we need to type that command from the beginning. I have been using command prompt for long time and was like this. You might search for some pc solution in the internet and might go to some sites and you find some commands which needs to be typed in the command prompt window and executed to solve that problem. This is really a tiring task especially when you don't have time to type all those commands one by one. How about copying those commands directly from a windows or browser where ever it be and pasting it directly on the command prompt window and vice-versa?



    It is very easy to copy and paste the commands inside the command prompt window to/from the windows clipboard.




    • Copy/Paste Single line Commands : Single line commands can be easily copied/pasted using the mouse itself. To do this right click inside the command prompt window and select the “Mark” command. You can select the area you need to copy by dragging the cursor from beginning or from the end , and press [Ctrl]+[C] to copy the command to the windows clipboard. Now you can paste that command any where as you do with normal text.


    • How to copy/Paste Commands in Command Prompt in Windows

    • Copy/ Paste Long Commands (Longer Lists) : It is more wise to use the clip.exe program in order to copy long lists of commands in the command prompt. Clip.exe program is only available in Windows Vista and Windows 7. It is directly integrated and runs from the Command Prompt Windows. You can easily link the clip.exe program with the help of the ‘|’ (pipe symbol) with the required command from the command line window. The pipe symbol can be accessed by pressing ‘[Shift]+[\]’. For example, typing the command ‘dir | clip’ and pressing enter will copy a directory having or the given folder to windows clipboard. 


    • Copy the Entire Contents of a File Using Command Prompt : You can even transfer the contents of a text file ‘project.txt’ directly into the  windows clip board by giving the command ‘type project.txt | clip’. You can also the ‘<’ (Less than) sign for this same task. Typing the command ‘Clip<project.txt’ will copy the entire contents of the ‘project.txt’ file to the windows clipboard. 


    • Pasting Commands to Command Prompt : After you have copied the required command to the windows clipboard you can paste the command directly to the command prompt window. Just right click inside the Command Prompt Window and select “Paste” from the context menu that appears.





      Playing with long commands in Windows Command Prompt Program will not be a problem for you from now on.

    Work in Safe Mode with Usual or Original Resolution that you use

    Safe Mode with your Usual or Original ResolutionFor some or other reason you need to boot into Windows Safe Mode. But on doing that you will find the resolution had been set too low than the resolution you get when you use windows normally. Windows completely messes up your desktop since it loads only the most basic graphic driver and settings. So here is a way to get your original or usual resolution back.

    Go to Start > RUN > and type regedit.

    Then navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SafeBoot and look for a subkey called 'Option'. If not create it by going to 'Edit > New > DWORD-value ' and create a one called 'OptionValue'.

    Now open it by double-clicking and set its value as " 1 "(safe mode without network ) or " 2 "(safe mode with network).

    To start the computer normally again set its value to " 0 ".

    That's how we can work in Safe Mode with our usual or original resolution that we normally get.
