How to Copy / Backup files without booting Windows




If you are a Windows user, you will face boot error. I had one recently and had to format the whole computer. I needed to backup my precious files. If the computers not booting up, doing this can be tricky. This is where our friend Penguin (Linux) comes to the picture.

Here’ how to do it:


1) Download Mandriva Linux or Ubuntu Linux. (Ubuntu Preferred)


2) Write it on a CD and boot it on your computer (Make sure you have the boot priority sorted). You can also make a bootable Pen / Flash drive.


3) Select Live CD option  and then, backup your data!


Note: You’ll need another host computer to prepare Linux boot disk.

Delphi Android file open failure with API 26 I can open files on Android with the Delphi code shown below. But when I compile it at API 26, it gives the error I added in the picture below. How can I solve this problem? ExtFile := AnsiLowerCase(StringReplace(TPath.GetExtension(yol), '.', '',)); mime := TJMimeTypeMap.JavaClass.getSingleton(); ExtToMime := mime.getMimeTypeFromExtension(StringToJString(ExtFile)); Intent := TJIntent.Create; Intent.setAction(TJIntent.JavaClass.ACTION_VIEW); Intent.setDataAndType(StrToJURI('file:' + yol), ExtToMime); SharedActivity.startActivity(Intent); Thank you so much for your help. I'm glad that I finally came across this kind of understanding person on this platform. I tried the .pas file you sent. but I see a different error window. I share my codes and the error. thank you so much. var ExtFile,yol,deger,id:string; mime: JMimeTypeMap; ExtToMime: JString; Intent: JIntent; javafile:JFile; begin yol:='/sdcard/SkyWiFiDownloa...

Contact Forms Let Visitors Say Hello

Image
Last weeks cool little tool, CryptX, is a great way to put an email address on your website without letting the spammers get a hold of it. However, sometimes you really just want a way for your website visitors to reach out and say hello (or something else) without ever giving out your email address. Contact forms let your visitors do just that. For a WordPress website, you have a lot of choices, but the top two, in my opinion, are Contact Form 7 and Fast Secure Contact Form. I recommend these two contact forms anytime I'm asked about contact forms. I use both of them (on different websites, of course) and thing both of them do an excellent job of collecting user info, blocking spam (through captcha,) and making your life as webmaster an easy one. Before we get into the features, let's talk price. Both are free. Yep, 100% free. Sure, they'll take donations, but neither uses nagware or any other ploy to get you to donate. Going alphabetically ... Contact Form 7 F...

Natural science

For other uses, see Natural science (disambiguation). For a topical guide to this subject, see Outline of natural science. The natural sciences seek to understand how the world and universe around us works. There are five major branches (top left to bottom right): Chemistry, astronomy, earth science, physics, and biology. Natural science is a branch of science concerned with the description, prediction, and understanding of natural phenomena, based on empirical evidence from observation and experimentation. Mechanisms such as peer review and repeatability of findings are used to try to ensure the validity of scientific advances. Natural science can be divided into two main branches: life science (or biological science) and physical science. Physical science is subdivided into branches, including physics, chemistry, astronomy and earth science. These branches of natural science may be further divided into more specialized branches (also known as fields). In Western society's analyt...
