Sometimes, due to heavy processes or bugs, you might not view all the PC’s connected to your LAN, in the Network option.

If you are sure to have that PC connected and is not viewed on Network, here’s what to do.

Open RUN (CTRL + R) or type in Start menu Search (Only for Vista & 7).

\\ComputerName-YouWishToConnect

And press enter.

*Remember to type-in the full name with – in it. It can be viewed by checking Properties of My Computer (Right-click on My Computer and go to Properties), and look in front of Full Computer Name. You have to type that name after \\

The 3 … in front of few options in windows, means that, whenever you press that option, a window will open for further options.

Creating a restore point is much safer than backing-up the registry.

Most of the software’s make it before installation, so that your system could be restored later if that software conflicts with any of the system files.

You can make it manually too.

Right-Click on My Computer and go to Properties. Now make your way to System Protection tab.

Use the Create… Option and type a name for it. It hardly takes a minute to make restore point.

Once done, use the System Restore… Option anytime to bring your PC back to the point where it was, when that Restore Point was created.


Restoring will not harm any of your saved files, but it’ll uninstall any application installed after that. This process is totally reversible by using the System Restore… Option again.
