Is your computer shared with people? If so, you will be concerned about the security of your personal files, and if you are using the Windows XP operating system, you can use some of the simple and efficient settings provided by Windows XP to maintain your file security.
1, how to let XP automatic networking
ie--tool--internet Option--Connection, check "network does not exist when dialing", IE pull to "start" every time the boot is completed, you have been online! There is another way: access to the content, the "prompt name, password, voucher, etc." tick cancellation, and then pull the line to "start."
2, fast browsing the local area network sharing
Typically, when Windows XP connects to other computers, it checks all the scheduled tasks on the other computer, which allows you to wait 30 seconds or more. The removed method finds "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Current Version\explorer\remotecomputer\namespace" from the registry.
Under this key value, there will be a {D6277990-4C6A-11CF-8D87-00AA0060F5BF} key, delete it, restart the computer, Windows XP will no longer check the scheduled task, the speed will be significantly improved.
3. Encrypt files and folders
Encrypting files and folders makes it impossible for unauthorized users to read the files and folders. To encrypt a file or folder in Windows, open Windows Explorer, right-click the file or folder you want to encrypt, select the Properties option, click the Advanced button on the General tab, and select the Encrypt content to protect data check box ( This operation applies only to the NTFS file system.
When you encrypt a folder, you are asked whether you want to encrypt all the files and subfolders within the folder at the same time. If you choose to do so, all files or subfolders within the folder that are currently and will be added in the future will be encrypted, and if you choose to encrypt only folders, the files and subfolders currently in the folder will not be encrypted. However, any future files and subfolders that are added to the folder will be encrypted when they are added. When encrypting a single file, the system will also ask if you want to encrypt the folder that contains it, and if you choose to do so, all files and subfolders that are added to the folder will be automatically encrypted.
4, improve the transmission rate of 10/100m network card
Select start → connect to → show all connections, double-click the connection used by the network card, click the Properties button, open the Properties dialog box, and select the Advanced tab. Select Link Speed/duplex mode in the properties column, and then change "Auto mode" to "Half mode" in the Set Value column.
In this way, manually 10/100m the properties of the Adaptive Network card to the 10M Half-duplex mode, so that the network card does not automatically negotiate between the network card in the transmission of data always at 10Mbps speed, greatly improve the transmission efficiency between the network. This setting is only valid for some network adapters.
