So, how can we install fonts without having to ask for Admin rights? Well, thanks to Tsukasa, there’s a workaround. He has developed a tool called Registerfont (You can download here)

What this tool actually does is that add a number of fonts to your font cache which do not need to use an elevated user account. How to use this tool is very simple.

• Just download the above file.
• Extract it to anywhere you can have access.
• Find the Bin folder and copy the font files into it.There you’ll also find registerfont.exe
• Go to Command Prompt and locate to registerfont.exe then type “registerfont add font1.ttf font2.ttf font3.ttf … font1000.ttf”

What if you don’t even have access to command prompt?

Well, then, you can create shortcut by right clicking on Registerfont.exe, choose create shortcut. After that right-click on that shortcut and go to Properties. Then append the string add with the name of the font file you want to add.

Example : “C:\Documents and Settings\usernamexxx\My Documents\RegisterFont.exe” add font1.ttf

Please note that you have to put Registerfont.exe, its shortcuts and all your fonts in the same folder. That’s it! Once you run the shortcut, you can see that the fonts you added are available to all your favourite Windows applications such as MS Office or Web Browsers.

Some people gave up on Vista and return to XP because of UAC. Well, it is quite surprise to know that some people couldn’t figure out how to disable UAC and they simply blame on Microsoft. These people are really pathetic.

2. After that simply click on Turn User Account Control on or off as shown in the picture below.

4. And then rebooted your computer.

Do you know that in Word 2007 you can mark your document as final so that other people could know that no editing should be done?

• After that click Mark as Final.

• You will see the following dialog box telling you that the document will be marked as final and saved. Just click OK.

But for me, as a Office 2007 user, sometimes I forget to save the file in Word97-2003 compatible mode and save it in 2007 new format and then send to my friends and coworkers, who are still using Office 2003 or older. After a couple of times happened, I’ve got to find a way to change Office 2007 default save file format. After a dozen times of accidentally sending a Word 2007 document to co-workers still stuck on Office 2003, I’ve decided to make Word save in the Word 2003 format by default.

Here is the procedure:

1. First click on the Office button and then choose Word Options as in the following picture.

2. After that Choose the save on the left column. And then from Save files in this format drop-down menu, choose Word97-2003 Document (.doc) as in the following pic.

After that click save. From now on, Word 2007 will always save file in Word 97-2003 format. No more incompatible format saving any more. As you can guess, even though I told you only about Word 2007, you can apply this tip in Excel 2007, Powerpoint 2007 and any other Office 2007 applications.

My daily work become faster after I’ve got used to the Windows shortcuts. Hopefully this list could help your life a lot easier too.

Well, I have always just clicked NO, and moved on. I never even bother to click YES. I just wanted to get on with my work, so that I find a way to stop the computer to avoid showing that popup. Well, now I’ve got the tip to fix the problem. It is a simple fix.

• Just right click on the My Computer and click Properties.
• Once the System dialog box is open, click the Advanced tab
• And then click the Error Reporting tab at the bottom.
• Check the box that disables Error Reporting.

That’s it. I never have to look at that annoying popup again!

But hey from lifehacker blog, I’ve got a much simpler way. Simply just make active the error message window and then press Ctrl+C. All the error message text including Windows title will be on the clipboard. Just paste it in the Notepad, select the message you want and then start googling. No more manual typing.
