Just switch the font to YinBiao, you can directly input the international phonetic symbols of English using the keyboard.
4, modify the registry backup
number of records in unstable system, you need to repair the registry, but usually only 5 to back up the registry database records, if the backup is more than 5, The new backup file will overwrite the old backup file. However, if you think that there are not enough 5, you can set the number of backup files of the "Windows Registry Checker" to a maximum of 99.
Select "Start" → "Run" and enter "scanreg.ini", then open Notepad and open this file. After that, find the line "MaxBackupCopIEs=5", modify "5" to the value you want, and save it after saving.

D, often to the last moment, the system prompts "can not Read the specified device", it is mad! It doesn't matter, don't press OK at this time, immediately press the “reset” button to restart the computer. After entering the system, use the disk scanner to check the hard disk. You will find hundreds of megabytes of lost files, save them, and change the extension to mpg. This is the file I just copied.
8, to simultaneously search multiple disks
use the "find" command to find a file, select a disk generally can only search on the disk.

In fact, you can only find the file named "Folder.htt" in the system's find command, and then delete or remove it to solve the locking of its system folder.
11, prohibiting the use of reg file
to prevent others to lift restrictions on the registry, the .reg file can not be opened with the default mode. The method is as follows:
In the window to the right of HKEY_LOCAL_MacHINE\\Software\\CLASSES.reg, change the "default" value to "txtfile", and then try importing the .reg file. Hey, how do I open Notepad?
12, using the Windows built-in functional test performance
