Open DNS

DHave you encountered some sites not opening in your broadband although the connection works fine with other sites also sometimes your connection refuses to work even though signal is coming. Mostly MTNL Triband & BSNL faces this problem.
This because of the fact that their DNS Servers are facing downtime. DNS is used to convert the URL entered by you into the machine understandable form. Once the site address is resolved the work DNS is over. But due to downtime DNS is not able to resolve the address due to which your browser is not able to open the website even when the Internet connection is working. To solve this issue there is a simple solution of using a third-party DNS server. The best third party DNS is OpenDNS it is free service anyone can use their DNS with any Internet connection. Its also free. To use OpenDNS you do not need to install any software all you need is just open your Internet Properties from My Network Places on desktop
Then open Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) Properties. Then type:-
208.67.222.222 in Preferred DNS server and
208.67.220.220 in Alternate DNS server.

Click OK & ITS done!

You can also go to http://www.opendns.com/ & register for a free account to get many features.

It can also block adult sites, fraud sites etc...
Therefore it is probably the most efficient parental control to protect children against unsuitable websites.

Decrapify / Debloat Windows 10 with a Powershell Script

Windows 10 is a decent OS from Microsoft after the disaster known as Windows 8 and 8.1. Although Windows is still better with no Modern UI crap, no ads, minimal telemetry, no Edge to bug you. But Windows 10 is a decent compromise if you want a stable OS with modern features like DirectX 12. Earlier OEMs used to bundle PCs and Laptops with crapware, with Windows 10, now Microsoft themselves bundle crapware. Welcome to Software as a Service (SaaS) model. On top of that we have OEM crapware on top of Microsoft crapware. As a result trying to Debloat or DeCrapify Windows 10 is getting absurd and as a system admin it is disheartening to see all that performance go to waste on the messed up attempt by Microsoft to do an Appstore and its apps. Fortunately a kind soul who goes by name  Sycne x has worked painstakingly to provide us a simple solution that works considerably well. Let's Begin To download the script visit  here , and click Clone or Download and Click Downl...
