Four Weather Widget For Your Windows 7 https://www.techmaish.com/four-weather-widget-for-your-windows-7/ https://www.techmaish.com/four-weather-widget-for-your-windows-7/#comments Sun, 22 Aug 2010 07:02:56 +0000 http://www.techmaish.com/?p=3922 I have heard people saying that Windows 7 did not reach places as XP did but I personally love Windows 7. I love the way the icons are placed in the status bar as it reminds me a Mac laptop. There are number of widgets I use for different purposes and one among them is for checking out the weather. No can deny that Weather is important. It is always nice to see the climate of the world by sitting inside the room and even you can know the climate conditions of each and every nook and corner of the world. I thought of sharing few best weather widgets that I use it on my laptop.

4 Weather Widget For Windows 7

Weather Center

Weather Centre

This is the best widget I have used and of course it is one of the best widgets. It shows a small window of information with the city name at the top and the degrees there. The time there is nicely denoted by a Moon or Sun at the background. It tells you the date, humidity, wind and much more. You can configure the options in the settings panel.

This pulls information from the MSN and other big weather source. Hit the download link to enjoy Weather Center.

Download: Weather Center

Weatherbug

Weather bug

This is the second best Widget I use it but I used to de activate it quite often since I feel it slowed down my laptop when I booted it. At last I came to know that it was another widget and not Weatherbug, even came to know that this is the best widget which loads in a fast manner. I love many features in this widget and once such feature is the forecast. You can know the weather forecast for 2 days or even for a week. The small window shows the degrees, day or night, wind and the name of the day.

Download: Weatherbug

Weather Channel Widget

Weather Channel Widget

The only reason I do not use this Widget is because of its size. It is just huge in size and occupies 20% of your screen but it can give you detailed information. Weather Channel also has forecaster which can tell you the weather for the next hours or for the next week as well. The main screen shows the Temperature for today, for the night and for the next day as well. The most part of the widget is occupied by the city map of your location.

Download: Weather Channel Alternatively Check Download From Here

MSN Weather Widget

MSN Weather Widget

I rarely use it and even can say I do not use it. It is simplest of the widget I know. It has not many options other than displaying the weather details of 5 days including today. It does not occupy that much space but do not have options as well.

Download: MSN Weather

How to Access Hidden Or Regional Themes in Windows 7 https://www.techmaish.com/how-to-access-hidden-or-regional-themes-in-windows-7/ https://www.techmaish.com/how-to-access-hidden-or-regional-themes-in-windows-7/#comments Wed, 28 Apr 2010 15:26:19 +0000 http://www.techmaish.com/?p=1741 Windows 7 offers a variety of themes to its users. Users can use the theme of his choice. Well the problem is that, every user doesn’t get access to all of the themes. A user is able to use the only themes related to his region and location which he sets while installing the Windows 7 OS. So what to do if one wants to use the other themes too? How to find those themes? Well the answer is simple. Read below.

1. Click on Start button and enter the Start menu.

2. In the search box in the Start Menu type, “C:\Windows\Globalization\MCT” and press Enter key or click on the MCT folder appearing in the results above the search button.

3. Once you open the MCT folder, you see many sub-folders within it. According to my location I see the following folders.

windows-7

4. All of these folders contain various themes. For example I open “MCT-AU” folder. This folder will contain three sub-folders named Australia, RSSFeed, Theme. Australia folder contain various wallpapers and the theme folder contains the main theme. Similarly all other country folders will contain themes and wallpapers.

5. Here we have an option. We can use the full theme or individual wallpapers. To use the entire theme click on the theme name (Here AU) from the “Theme” folder.

6. The individual images can be found in the Country Name (Here Australia) folder.

Similarly there is MicroSoft Tool which is also capable to completely analyze your windows 7 for common issues, problems, errors and other boot issues.

It performs the following activities; system responsiveness issues, boot issues, application start times, interrupt storms, deferred procedure calls, interrupt activity and application resource usage.

How To Download MicroSoft ToolKit

As I mentioned it needs MicroSoft Windows SDK and .NET FramWork 3.5. So first of all you will have to download MicroSoft Windows SDK, in order to install MicroSoft ToolKit. Visit Microsoft home page and download the file from there website. The file is too big, so use good internet connection to download faster.

When downloading is completed, install the SDK and during installation select “Win32 Development Tool” only. After installation go to X:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0\bin and find the below 3 files.

wpt_x64.msi – To be used in 64Bit Windows Vista/7/Server 2008 (R2)
wpt_x86.msi – To be used in 32Bit Vista/7/Server 2008
wpt_ia64.msi – To be used in Itanium Windows

If your windows 7 is 32 Bit, then run the 32Bit file from the above files and if it is 64 Bit, then select 64 Bit. Now download MicroSoft ToolKit from the below links, according to your windows version.
