Facebook: How to Unblock Apps

In facebook sometimes we block apps that are a nuisance.  Later we may want to actually use these apps.  It’s rather easy to unblock an app and here’s how you do it.
1. Click on Account at the upper right of your Facebook screen
2. Select Privacy Settings. 
3. At the bottom center of the window under “Block List” click on “Edit your list”.  It’s in blue. 



Once you’ve gotten to the Block List, you’ll see all of the blocked apps listed.  Simply find the app you would like access to and then click the “Unblock” hyperlink.  That’s it.

Search for files containing known data with File Searcher

When searching for a particular file on your HDD I recommend “everything” from Voidtools. (here).  With this small application you can search for files that you know the name of and sidestem the resource exhaustive Windows Indexing service. 

We all know that there are times when we’ve saved a file yet have forgotten the name we gave the file. Yet we do remember parts of the text or data in the particular word doc, or PDF file, or Excel spreadsheet.  In these cases I would recommend File Searcher from MariusSoft. (here)

File Searcher allows you to search any file in any location for any content easily and quickly. File Searcher features a powerful regular expression engine that searches any type of file for any given regular expression or standard string. File Searcher is a huge step up on most other search programs because it is simple. It finds lost text files where you can only remember vague details about them. It is way better than the Windows search function at it.

The problem: Basically, you remember you wrote a report for the boss around the middle of last year, with a special section about current inventory.

The solution: Start up File Searcher, tell it which folders are most likely to hold that report, tell it to look through all files from last April to September. Under the Contents tab, enter items like the name of the boss and company, and of course the word "inventory". That’s it, Searcher will find the file you’re looking for.
