As what may be the most common and convenient way to store and send multiple files, the ZIP file format is used by essentially everyone online. That being the case, there's a good chance you'll eventually come across one that has been corrupted, not least because only a single corrupt bit in one file out of dozens inside the ZIP could prevent your file archiver from opening or extracting its contents. Corrupt files can result from a variety of issues including bad drive sectors, malware, an incomplete download or transfer such as during a drop in your connection, or any other sudden interruption like a power failure or an improper shut down while working with the ZIP file. A corrupt ZIP file may open for you anyway, but some of the original files might be missing and attempting to open damaged ZIPs typically causes Windows to prompt with the following error: "Windows cannot open the folder. The Compressed (zipped) Folder 'C:\Users\Infotech\Desktop\Wallpaper Co...

I t was once when I was in 7th grade. I turned on my desktop computer after almost a year. I glanced at the screen a few moments after the PC booted and I was surprised to know it displayed correct date and time after a year of no operation. Also, the computer wasn’t connected to the internet as I forgot to turn on the router so that it could sync the time. To satisfy my curiosity, I researched on the web and came to know that there is a semiconductor chip present on the motherboard which is assigned the job of keeping a note of the time when the computer disconnects from the power source. THE RTC CHIP REMEMBERS THE DATE AND TIME. This timekeeper chip is called the Real-time Clock (RTC) or the CMOS ( Complementary Metal-oxide Semiconductor) chip. The CMOS chip (known as CMOS RAM) is a memory which also stores the BIOS information of the computer. And it is a volatile memory, that’s why It is driven by a low voltage battery having a life of around five to ten years. On d...

Computers, software programs, and information technology tools and services have become an integral part of our lives. From personal communication and transportation to conduct of business and commercial activities, there is virtually no aspect of modern society that does not involve information technology. In such a scenario, a malfunctioning or buggy software application can have a significant impact on our personal and professional activities. This is why software testing has become an integral and important component of the development process. Software testing refers to the process of ensuring the application does what it was designed to do in an efficient and functional manner. Even program that does not have any bugs requires testing to ensure that it achieves its ultimate objective as specified by the client. The testing process ensures that the software program does not cause unintended consequences like system crashes, along with making sure the ultimate purpose of th...

Physical (Layer 1) OSI Model, Layer 1 conveys the bit stream - electrical impulse, light or radio signal  —  through the network at the electrical and mechanical level. It provides the hardware means of sending and receiving data on a carrier, including defining cables, cards and physical aspects. Fast Ethernet, RS232, and ATM are protocols with physical layer components. Layer 1 Physical examples include Ethernet, FDDI, B8ZS, V.35, V.24, RJ45. Data Link (Layer 2) At OSI Model, Layer 2, data packets are encoded and decoded into bits. It furnishes transmission protocolknowledge and management and handles errors in the physical layer, flow control and frame synchronization. The data link layer is divided into two sub layers: The Media Access Control (MAC) layer and the Logical Link Control (LLC) layer. The MAC sub layer controls how a computer on the network gains access to the data and per...

What interest to create these alter...

                      How to remove the Windows shortcut arrow from desktop icons Shortcuts point to files–usually but not always programs–that are stored elsewhere on your drive. If you drag and drop a program from the Start menu to the desktop, you create a shortcut to the original program. To make it clear that it’s a shortcut and not the original file, Windows displays an arrow in the lower-left corner of the icon. If you don’t like the arrows, you can turn them off by editing the Windows Registry. But William asked for a  safe  solution, so I’m offering an easier, less dangerous way to make the change. And that way involves using the  Windows Club’s  free and portable program, Ultimate Windows Tweaker. Since it’s portable, you don’t have to install it onto your PC. If you’re using Windows 8, you need the latest version,  Ultimate Windows Tweaker 3 for Windows 8 . The first time you launch it, ...
