While not all Start menu items will have Jump Lists, those that do display a small black triangle graphic, indicating that that item expands to display its Jump List when highlighted.

 Aero Shake is as easy to describe as it is difficult to discover: Simply click and hold on the grabbable area (close,maximize,restore bar) of any non maximized window and shake the mouse left and right vigorously.

 

When you do so the first time, all other open windows are minimized. Repeat the action, and those minimized windows will be restored to their prior state.

As with the Windows XP and Vista Start menu, the Windows 7 Start menu is divided Vertically into two halves. On the left half is a list of your most recently used (MRU) applications.

But whereas Windows XP and Vista would automatically pin the default Web browser and email to the top of this list, Windows 7 no longer does so. That’s because Microsoft is moving to a system where the taskbar, instead of the Start menu,On the right of the Start menu, as before, is a list of commonly accessed shell folders and other system locations and tasks.

 

One of the best features in Windows 7 is its integrated search functionality. you might think that this feature is limited only to finding documents and music files, you can actually use it for a variety of things. It is located on the left side of the menu underneath. You can search any application in this search just type the name. eg: you want notepad, common way is to go all programs and choose notepad, just type notepad and you get it instantly from this search.

The key to extending the grace period is a command-line program in Windows 7 called

Software Licensing Manager (SLMGR), which is actually a VBScript script named slmgr.

vbs. (It can be found in c:\windows\system32 by default.) Using this script with the -rearm

parameter, you can reset (or, in Software Licensing Manager lingo, “re-arm”) Windows 7’s

30-day activation grace period. This effectively resets the clock on the activation grace

period back to a full 30 days whenever you run it.

You can run this script successfully only four times, (30 days of

initial grace period plus four additional 30-day grace periods).

 

1. Open the Start menu, select Search, and type cmd.


2.
Right-click the cmd shortcut that appears and choose Run as Administrator from

     the pop-up menu that appears. Windows 7’s command-line window appears.


3.
Type the following text in the command-line window and press Enter 

      slmgr.vbs -rearm.

 
When the command is run successfully, the Windows Script Host window 
 appears
 “Command completed successfully. Please restart
  the system for the changes to take effect.”


Click OK to close the Windows Script Host window and then restart the PC. When

you reboot, reload the System window. The grace period has been reset to 30 days.


To get the system window, Right click the My computer and click properties, the lower side of the window has the activation section, there you get your Activation status.

 

BONOUS COMMANDS

-ipk: Enables you to change the Windows product key


-dlv
: Displays a detailed list of license information about your PC, including

         the Windows 7 product version and type (e.g., retail)


-ato
: Activates Windows 7


-dti
: Activates Windows 7 offline, without an Internet connection
