Outlook 2010: Recover Deleted Emails | Recover Hard(Permanent) Deleted Emails in Microsoft Outlook 2010

Outlook 2010: Recover Deleted Emails | Recover Hard(Permanent) Deleted Emails in Microsoft Outlook 2010


Even though Outlook 2010 does not support recovery of deleted emails directly, you can recover your emails even after hard-core deletion without using any third-party components. Through successful integration of Outlook 2010 with Microsoft Exchange Server you can make it possible to recover the deleted mails. This function would only be available for POP3 mail account, you can’t revert any mails from IMAP account; Gmail, Yahoo, AOL, etc.
Launch Outlook 2010 and from left sidebar, under Outlook Data File, click Deleted Items. Now navigate to Folder tab. In Clean Up group you will see Recover Deleted Items button is grayed-out.
greyed out 1
To enable this option you need to properly configure Exchange server 2007/10 on your system. After proper configuration if it is still grayed-out, then first you need to close Outlook 2010 if it is running. From taskbar click Windows Start Orb button, type regedit and hit Enter.
Note: Enabling this feature requires modifying the registry, before you start off with it, make sure that you understand how to restore the registry and backup the concerned registry files to prevent occurring of any erratic response.
In Registry Editor dialog, start looking for;
\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Exchange\Client\Options
In case you don’t find Options key, you can easily create it. Right-click Client and from New options clickKeyas shown in the screenshot below.

Now change the name of this key to Options, right-click in the right-side bar, From New options clickDWORD (32-bit) Value.

Change Dword’s name to DumpsterAlwaysOn, right-click it and change its Value data to 1. Click OK to continue.
change value
Close down registry editor. Launch Outlook 2010 and move to Folder tab. You will notice that Recover Deleted Items has been enabled now.

If Exchange Server is properly configured, then it should work for you. Check for any discrepancies with Outlook 2010 integration because if there are any lack of correspondence then it won’t work out the way it should. After complete verification if it is still grayed out, contact your system administrator.

Lost BIOS password - Resetting the BIOS

Lost BIOS password - Resetting the BIOS

Hardware reset

The aim is to reset the BIOS so that data that the related passwords is cleared out. This is done by moving a jumper on the motherboard. The biggest challenge is to find this jumper.
Note that: This procedure also reset the BIOS settings to default!

Step 1: Turn off your PC, unplug the power cable and open your system unit. Touch the chassis of the casing with a metallic object to discharge static electricity.

Step 2: Check the documentation for your motherboard to locate the position of the jumper that resets the BIOS. If you don't have a manual, look on your motherboard for one of the following tags: CLR BIOS, CLEAR BIOS, CLR CMOS, CLEAR CMOS, RESET BIOS or RESET CMOS. If the jumper is on 2-connector pins and it is held on a single pin, place it on both, wait one second then return it to its original position.

Step 3: Find the jumper on your motherboard reset it. It is usually close to the battery.If the jumper is on 3-
connector pins, place it on the middle and the initially uncovered pins. Wait for some time and put the jumper in its original position (PIN1-PIN2).If the jumper is on a 2-connector pins and that is holding on a single pin, place it on both, wait one second and then return it to its original position.

Step 4: Power up and start your PC: the password will have disappeared.

How to Remove and Re-install (Reinstall) All Windows Updates | Fix the problem with Microsoft Windows Update that is not working

How to Remove and Reinstall All Windows Updates | Fix the problem with Microsoft Windows Update that is not working

Have you ever come across a situation where Windows Update gives you the message “An update failed to install” and gives you no other option? This can happen for a host of reasons and the first thing you want to do is search that phrase along with the update that failed to install.
There are some occasions, however, where you have to start from scratch and reinstall all Windows Updates from the beginning. Other than reformatting your computer and then installing every update again, you can also delete the folder that contains the updates and update history.
Once you delete the automatic updates folder, the next time you check for updates or go to the Windows Update website, all updates will be re-downloaded and re-installed.

How to reinstall all Windows Updates

First, you have to turn off the Automatic Updates and BITS service in Windows. To do this, click on Start, then Run and type in services.msc and press OK.



Next, right-click on Automatic Updates service and click on Stop. Right-click on Background Intelligent Transfer Service and click on Stop.




Now we can delete the folder that contains all of the Windows updates applied to your computer currently by navigating to:
C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution

Note:- That this will delete the Update history and ALL updates will be reinstalled on your computer.
Note:- That this will not harm your computer in any way.

Now you can go ahead and restart the two services that we stopped earlier. If you are running Windows Vista, type in Windows Update in the search box and press Enter.

Windows Updates should show you that you've never checked for updates before, so go ahead and click “Check for Updates” to begin re-installing all updates.
