How to Disable Google SearchWiki

From Google System blog :

Google SearchWiki lets you customize the search results by promoting, demoting and adding new pages. You can also annotate the results. Some people think that the new feature clutters Google's clean search results, without bringing too much functionality.



Google doesn't offer a way to turn off SearchWiki other than logging out from your Google account, but you can install a Greasemonkey script that hides the interface for this additional functionality. If you use Firefox, install Greasemonkey extension, restart the browser and the add the No SearchWiki script. Google's search results will look clean again, even if you are logged in.


The script also works in Opera, which has built-in support for userscripts. Just go to Tools>Preferences>Advanced>Content>JavaScript Options, choose a folder in the "User JavaScript files" box and then save the script in that folder.

Note that the script doesn't disable the SearchWiki interface for the results you've already promoted so you can restore their default position and you can still see the removed results at the bottom of the page. To undo your changes, you can use My SearchWiki Notes page.

Enjoy this Tip !

Recover Deleted Files with NTFS Undelete

Accidentally deleted a file from your PC ?
Don’t panic! Now there is a free and open source tool that allows you to recover the deleted file within few minutes.
Named as NTFS Undelete, it recovers deleted files directly from hard disk even it is removed permanently from Recycle Bin.

You may wonder how this tool can recover the file since it has been totally deleted from your hard disk.
The concept is when a file is deleted, although the occupied space is marked as free, but contents still remain intact in the disk.
However, the contents may be overwritten by the next file saving, any application launching and closing activities, so to ensure you can retrieve the deleted file safely, it is very important that you don’t do any file saving, launching or closing any application on the same disk immediate after you accidentally deleted the file.
o recover the deleted file on the same disk, you need to download NTFS Undelete ISO image on other PC and burn it to CD, then run NTFS Undelete utility directly from the CD to recover the deleted file.
If you want to recover the deleted file in other partition like in D drive, then you can download NTFS Undelete Windows Installer and get it install in C drive.
Run NFTS Undelete utility from C drive to recover the deleted file in D drive later.
You are strongly encouraged to recover file to different partition from where the deleted file located so that to avoid the recovering file get corrupted and unrecoverable.

NTFS Undelete is simple and easy to use.
You need to select the drive of the deleted file located to scan for the deleted file. It may take some times to do the scanning and a directory named as “Lost Files and Folders” will be created to store the deleted files.
To recover the specific deleted file, go to Search tab and search for the file. There are few options you can use to search for the file like file name, date modified, date created and file size range. Once you have identified the file, just mark it.
Under Recover marked files tab, choose the destination folder where you want the file to be recovered, then click Recover button to start recovering the deleted file.
