Myths And Facts [PART 01]

BY AKH Team,

Introduction: In this blog I am going to tell you about some unknown Myths and Facts Of I.T.

Here we start with our first Myths And Facts is

Myth #1. Deleting file from Recycle Bin Remove file permanently.

We all think that when we delete or uninstall any file or folder in our computer it get uninstall successfully but this is a Myths because the fact is the uninstalled file or folder get store in the driver of that computer. We can access is but just opening the command prompt and do the following.

  • Press the Windows key and R at the same time to open the dialogue window
  • Type in cmd and press Enter
  • At the prompt type in cd\ and press Enter
  • Next, type in cd $Recycle.bin and press Enter. Different operating systems this command may also be “Recycled”, or “Recycler”.
  • Then type in attrib -r -s -h *.* and press Enter
  • At last type in dir */s and Enter, Then you will see all deleted files from recycle bin. In this way, you can easily recover deleted files using CMD.

Myth #2. Ram is the cause for your slowing down pc.

If Computer is working slow is not because of your Ram. It’s depend on your Processor. The work of Ram is to Process the Portion of a File. That’s why it is known as Random Access Memory.

Myth #3. If I have an antivirus program, my computer can’t get a virus.

Don’t think that the Virus can’t enter in your device as you have installed Anti-Virus. Anti-Virus can only protect you from those viruses which has been coded in that Anti-Virus. Every Second a new Virus create which is difficult to Anti-virus to identify.

Myth #4. Mac computers can’t get viruses.

For many years, folks assumed that PCs were the only computers that could be infected with viruses. Due to Windows’ popularity and huge market share, Macs have benefited from fewer threats–but the tables are turning. While it’s true that more viruses have targeted PCs, cyber criminals have dedicated new attention to the “impenetrable” Mac. In 2012, 600,000 Macs were infected by a specific Trojan called flashback. Apple made headlines in February 2015 when they confirmed a major security flaw in iOS and OS X. If Mac is your computer brand of choice, your carefree days are over. It’s now vital to take security precautions to keep it safe from harm.

Myth #5. You should only charge your laptop battery when it is completely empty.

Surprised? This myth is actually grounded in fact. Back when computers used nickel cadmium batteries, it was best to wait until the battery was fully spent before charging. However, today’s lithium-ion batteries last longer if you don’t wait to charge them. When you charge a empty or low lithium-ion battery, it develops a chemical resistance to charging. Therefore, it’s better not to run your batteries down to zero before charging again!
