2) Safe Mode Boot options in Windows XP

To use a Safe Boot option, follow these steps:

1. Restart your computer and start pressing the F8 key on your keyboard. On a computer
that is configured for booting to multiple operating systems, you can press the F8 key
when the Boot Menu appears.
2. Select an option when the Windows Advanced Options menu appears, and then
press ENTER.
3. When the Boot menu appears again, and the words "Safe Mode" appear in blue at the
bottom, select the installation that you want to start, and then press ENTER.

Description of Safe Boot options

• Safe Mode (SAFEBOOT_OPTION=Minimal): This option uses a minimal


set of device drivers and services to start Windows.
• Safe Mode with Networking (SAFEBOOT_OPTION=Network): This option
uses a minimal set of device drivers and services to start Windows
together with the drivers that you must have to load networking.
• Safe Mode with Command Prompt
(SAFEBOOT_OPTION=Minimal(AlternateShell)): This option is the same as
Safe mode, except that Cmd.exe starts instead of Windows Explorer.
• Enable VGA Mode: This option starts Windows in 640 x 480 mode by using
the current video driver (not Vga.sys). This mode is useful if the display is
configured for a setting that the monitor cannot display.

• Reboot: This option restarts the computer.
• Return to OS Choices Menu: On a computer that is configured to starting
to more than one operating system, this option returns to the Boot menu.

WHAT IS VIRUS?

A computer virus is a computer program that can copy itself and infect a computer. The
term "virus" is also commonly but erroneously used to refer to other types of malware,
adware, and spyware programs that do not have the reproductive ability. A true virus can
only spread from one computer to another (in some form of executable code) when its host is
taken to the target computer; for instance because a user sent it over a network or the Internet,
or carried it on a removable medium such as a floppy disk, CD, DVD, or USB drive. Viruses
can increase their chances of spreading to other computers by infecting files on a network file
system or a file system that is accessed by another computer.[1][2]

The term "computer virus" is sometimes used as a catch-all phrase to include all types of
malware. Malware includes computer viruses, worms, trojans, most rootkits, spyware,
dishonest adware, crimeware, and other malicious and unwanted software, including true
viruses. Viruses are sometimes confused with computer worms and Trojan horses, which are
technically different. A worm can exploit security vulnerabilities to spread itself to other
computers without needing to be transferred as part of a host, and a Trojan horse is a program
that appears harmless but has a hidden agenda. Worms and Trojans, like viruses, may cause
harm to either a computer system's hosted data, functional performance, or networking

throughput, when they are executed. Some viruses and other malware have symptoms
noticeable to the computer user, but many are surreptitious or go unnoticed.

WHAT IS Registry?

A database used by the Windows operating system (Windows 95 and NT ) to store


configuration information. The Registry consists of the following major sections:
 HKEY_Classes_Root - file associations and OLE information
 HKEY_Current_User - all preferences set for current user
 HKEY_User - all the current user information for each user of the system
 HKEY_Local_Machine - settings for hardware, operating system, and installed
applications
 HKEY_Current_Configuration - settings for the display and printers
 HKEY_Dyn_Data - performance data

Most Windows applications write data to the Registry, at least during installation. You can
edit the Registry directly by using the Registry Editor (regedit.exe) provided with the
operating system. However, you must take great care because errors in the Registry could
disable your computer.

5) What is Command Prompt ? (CMD)

A command prompt is a non-graphical interface that allows you to interact with your
operating system. At the command prompt, you enter commands by typing their names
followed by options and arguments. Most modern computers use a graphical user interface
(GUI), which allows users to more intuitively access programs and documents. However,
some programs and commands are still only available only through a command prompt. To
access the command prompt, follow the instructions appropriate to your operating system.
Windows :- To access the command prompt in Windows, from the Start menu, select
Run... . In the "Open:" field, enter CMD

6) What is System Restore?

7 Windows Task Manager | arivu.s1985@gmail.com ((+91) 9940385886)


Presented by Arivazhagan.S

System Restore helps you restore your computer's system files to an earlier point in time. It's
a way to undo system changes to your computer without affecting your personal files, such as
e-mail, documents, or photos.

Sometimes, the installation of a program or a driver can cause an unexpected change to your
computer or cause Windows to behave unpredictably. Usually, uninstalling the program or
driver corrects the problem. If uninstalling does not fix the problem, you can try restoring
your computer's system to an earlier date when everything worked correctly.

8 Windows Task Manager | arivu.s1985@gmail.com ((+91) 9940385886)


Presented by Arivazhagan.S

System Restore uses a feature called System Protection to regularly create and save restore
points on your computer. These restore points contain information about registry settings and
other system information that Windows uses. You can also create restore points manually.

System Restore is not intended for backing up personal files, so it cannot help you recover a
personal file that has been deleted or damaged. You should regularly back up your personal
files and important data using a backup program.

• Open System Restore by clicking the Start button , clicking All Programs, clicking
Accessories, clicking System Tools, and then clicking System Restore.‌ If you are
prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or
provide confirmation.

7) what is Folder Options ?

9 Windows Task Manager | arivu.s1985@gmail.com ((+91) 9940385886)

With Folder Options, you can specify how your folders function and how content is
displayed.

For example, you can indicate that you want your folders to display hyperlinks to common
tasks, other storage locations, and detailed file information. You can also choose to open
items with either a single or a double click.

You can change the program that opens a file type. You can also change the items that appear
on your desktop

To change folder options settings, open Folder Options in Control Panel. Or, to open Folder
Options from a folder window, click Tools, and then click Folder Options.

The Control Panel centralises access to Windows' multitudinous settings. From the Control
Panel you can adjust and tweak Windows' appearance, performance, network connections,
hardware settings and a whole lot more.

While many of the settings in the Control Panel are also accessible in other ways – for
instance, you can change the desktop appearance by right-clicking the desktop and choosing
Properties from the pop-up menu or by opening the Display applet in the Control Panel – the
Control Panel makes it easy to keep tabs on all your Windows settings.

You open the Control Panel by clicking Start -> Control Panel. If it's not on your Start Menu

How to change an installed program

9) What is an operating system (OS) ?

The most important program that runs on a computer. Every general-purpose computer must
have an operating system to run other programs. Operating systems perform basic tasks, such
as recognizing input from the keyboard, sending output to the display screen, keeping track of
files and directories on the disk, and controlling peripheral devices such as disk drives and
printers.

For large systems, the operating system has even greater responsibilities and powers. It is like
a traffic cop -- it makes sure that different programs and users running at the same time do
not interfere with each other. The operating system is also responsible for security, ensuring
that unauthorized users do not access the system.

Operating systems can be classified as follows:

 multi-user : Allows two or more users to run programs at the same time. Some
operating systems permit hundreds or even thousands of concurrent users.
 multiprocessing : Supports running a program on more than one CPU.
 multitasking : Allows more than one program to run concurrently.

13 Windows Task Manager | arivu.s1985@gmail.com ((+91) 9940385886)

 multithreading : Allows different parts of a single program to run concurrently.


 real time: Responds to input instantly. General-purpose operating systems, such
as DOS and UNIX, are not real-time.

Operating systems provide a software platform on top of which other programs, called
application programs, can run. The application programs must be written to run on top of a
particular operating system. Your choice of operating system, therefore, determines to a great
extent the applications you can run. For PCs, the most popular operating systems are DOS,
OS/2, and Windows, but others are available, such as Linux.

As a user, you normally interact with the operating system through a set of commands. For
example, the DOS operating system contains commands such as COPY and RENAME for
copying files and changing the names of files, respectively. The commands are accepted and
executed by a part of the operating system called the command processor or command line
interpreter. Graphical user interfaces allow you to enter commands by pointing and clicking
at objects that appear on the screen.
