How to Show Files Hidden by Virus

This is a problem which very commonly happens in public PCs or any PC that got a busy "flash disk traffic" : Files and folders inside the flash disk suddenly disappear out of nowhere BUT you know that actually they are still there (check the space usage by right click-properties-ing the disk drive).

There are several options you could try :


Option 1 Scan your disk using antivirus.

In several cases it might work.


Option 2 Activating "show hidden files" option.

In Windows 8 and above:
a. Open your disk
b. Go to tab "View", it is on "Show/Hide" sub-tab.
(Check the pics below)

In my personal experiences, option 1 and option 2 rarely success.
Our important files and folders remain hidden by the autorun worm (yes, this all problems caused by a worm).

Then so please welcome my mainstay, favorite, simple troubleshooter:

Option 3 Using Command Prompt

1.

Open Command Prompt (CMD)
Simple steps : Click "Windows" - type "CMD" - hit enter
or "Run" - "CMD" - enter

Make sure you run the CMD as administrator.

2.

Navigate to your flash disk's drive by typing <drive location>:
and enter

example

e:

3.

Type :
attrib -s -h -r /s /d *.*
enter

And.... voila! 
Enjoy your recovered disk

How to Uninstall Office 15 Click-to-Run Extensibility Component

Yay, another IT tutorial :)

Just like the title says, it's a tutorial about how to uninstall Office 15 Click-to-Run Extensibility Component. You may encounter this problem while installing/re-installing Microsoft Office when you had already installed another version of Microsoft Office before.

The pop-up error message.

You will not find this component on Add/Remove Programs on Control Panel. Yet how to solve this error is very simple:

1. Open Registry Editor
    Windows 8.1 or above: Click Start --> type 'regedit' and enter.
    Windows 7 or Vista: Click Start --> in the search box, type 'regedit' and enter.
    Windows XP: Click Start --> click Run --> in the Run window, type 'regedit' and enter.


2. After Registry Editor opened, go to: Computer\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Installer\Products

3. In Products folder, you will find many folders. Folders we'll need begin with 00005 on its name (see image below).

4. Find and delete all folders which contain Office 15 Click-to-Run Extensibility Component on ProductName.

5. After deleting all required folders, launch the Microsoft Office installer again and voila! let the installation begins.

That's all. Quite simple right?

Btw, I am using Windows 8.1 and haven't try it on another OS yet. But I expect it will work also.

Hope it helps and please let me know if something need to be updated on this tutorial.

Thanks and have a good day.

Hatur Doa dalam Jarak

Sudah lewat dua bulan sejak 19 September 2014.
Sejak Tuhan menjemput kak Krishna dalam lelap tidurnya di Jumat pagi.

Beberapa hari yang lalu, ketika membuka Facebook, tidak sengaja saya membaca update status mas Arya (masnya almarhum kak Krishna). Ketika itu saya tersenyum dan menyadari betapa rindu saya kepada kak Krishna. Jarak di antara kami terasa jauh sekali. Seperti saat lalu, ketika saya tinggal di Jakarta sedangkan kak Krishna ada di Semarang. Padahal, saat ini kami sudah berada di kota yang sama. Sama-sama di Semarang. Jarak rumah saya ke makam ataupun rumah kak Krishna pun tidak sampai 30 menit dengan kendaraan. Aneh rasanya ketika sesuatu yang padahal dekat terasa sangat jauh. Saya termenung. Bahwa mungkin saat ini kak Krishna sudah jauh melanjutkan perjalanannya ke babak selanjutnya dalam kehidupan manusia. Cukup sukar dimengerti, tetapi dalam waktu yang sama juga ada keyakinan dalam diri saya yang merasa bahwa beliau masih berada dekat di sini, yang mana bisa jadi sebenarnya hanya pengharapan atau penghiburan dari saya untuk diri saya sendiri. Hehehe.

Mengenai perasaan aneh terkait jarak ini, saya teringat dengan perkataan ibu saya dulu ketika saya harus kembali ke Jakarta,

Arwah itu udara. Kalau kangen, doakan saja. Pasti doanya akan sampai ke dia.

Dan itu menjadi penghiburan bagi saya setiap kali saya merindukan orang-orang terkasih saya yang sudah terlebih dahulu meniti setapak menuju surga. Saya yakin bahwa lewat doa, rindu dan cinta yang kita rasakan dapat tersampaikan kepada mereka. Mereka masih ada dan mereka bersama kita dalam perlindungan Tuhan yang mencintai umat-Nya.

Al-faatehah.

Convert audionote to mp3

Hi everyone! Nice to see you on blog again! In this post, I am going to write a tutorial about how to convert files with extension .audionote to .mp3. I have just found out this step yesterday and found it useful so I want to share it here. I try it on Win7 and haven’t tested it in other OS but I think it shall work universal.

.audionote is an Apple recording file’s extension. Just like some other Apple’s extensions, this extension cannot simply be played on non-Apple devices and it is pretty hard to find software to convert it to another type of sound extension like .mp3. This tutorial might be useful if you need to share a recording file (your teacher’s presentation, workshop, phone call with your girlfriend (kidding), etc.) from your Apple device to be played to another non-Apple device in very simple steps. Here it goes:

1. Open the folder containing your .audionote file. Make sure you can see your file’s extension. If it is not shown, you can follow these additional steps:

a. Go to Control Panel

b. Click Appearance and Personalization

c. Click Folder Options

d. On tab View, uncheck Hide extensions for known file types

e. OK

2. Press F2 or right click - rename on your file. Rename the .audionote to .rar (or .zip).

3. Right click again and extract your .rar file.

4. After the extraction, you will have some files as above. The file you will convert next is the one with .caf extension (actually it is play-able already in some music software).

5. Convert your .caf file to .mp3 using sound converter software or online converter website. I am using http://media.io/

6. Enjoy your new recording file! Now you can play it on your Windows PC, Android, Blackberry, and other players.

Hope it works and helpful for you. If you have questions or found error related to this tutorial, please let me know by leaving comment below or contact me via email. Thanks for reading and have a good day.
