An updated script to change your gmail password to previous ones!

I lost my MotoACTV watch which I loved so much, and as a results I've changed my gmail and other passwords. But I just realized I could do better by installing programs like AndroidLost to maybe find the android watch.

The problem was I couldn't revert back to my previous password so I can install programs remotely on my android via Google Play Store.

So i searched the web and came into this great weblog.

The mentioned code had problems running, so I've changed it a little bit and I am putting it here for you!

look for "You should only edit these values" and change ???? into appropriate values.

save it into an .vbs file and then run

%windir%\SysWoW64\cmd.exe

cscript your file name.vbs

My solution for HP Envy 14 Beat Edition overheating and shutdown!

I was having issues with my Envy 14, overheating and then shutting down (in Windows 7).
My temporary solution was to switch to Intel graphics card and never use my dedicated graphic card.
Whenever I switched to my dedicated graphic card (AMD Radeon HD) it would heat up in 20 minutes with great fan noise and eventually shutting down.

I've just discovered if you install newer AMD drivers on top of HP provided ones you can have switchable graphics card and also a working Radeon HD card. Also generally fan noise is greatly reduced.

Here are the links I've used :

Original HP drivers :

AMD drivers I've installed on top of that:

Automatic numbering of equations in MS Word with help of a VBA Macro

Imagine you have to compile a report in Office Word format and you have many equations which need to equation numbering. Microsoft does not provide an automated solution for this as many Project formatting guidelines require you to have equation alignment on center and equation number aligned on rights side.

Thought Microsoft provided an VBA script in their online web site. The script did not work the way it should be so I modified it and improved it a little bit.

Select equations you want to be captioned, and run this script  Sometimes you need to have "Enter" pressed after the equation or 2 or more enters. If something went wrong just press undo.

I've assigned CTRL+SHIFT+X to this Macro, and in a minute you can have all your equations numbered.

Enjoy
