Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5

microsoft .net framework 3.5

.NET Framework 3.5 builds incrementally on the new features added in .NET Framework 3.0. For example, feature sets in Windows Workflow Foundation (WF), Windows Communication Foundation (WCF), Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) and Windows CardSpace. In addition, .NET Framework 3.5 contains a number of new features in several technology areas which have been added as new assemblies to avoid breaking changes. They include the following:

- Deep integration of Language Integrated Query (LINQ) and data awareness. This new feature will let you write code written in LINQ-enabled languages to filter, enumerate, and create projections of several types of SQL data, collections, XML, and DataSets by using the same syntax.
- ASP.NET AJAX lets you create more efficient, more interactive, and highly-personalized Web experiences that work across all the most popular browsers.
- New Web protocol support for building WCF services including AJAX, JSON, REST, POX, RSS, ATOM, and several new WS-* standards.
- Full tooling support in Visual Studio 2008 for WF, WCF, and WPF, including the new workflow-enabled services technology.
- New classes in .NET Framework 3.5 base class library (BCL) that address many common customer requests.

Windows XP Optimization - Faster XP

windows xp tweaks

Yea Yea, I know windows XP by default is not very fast, so there are many softwares ( which we mostly used with crack or cracked serials ) and there are many other guidelines too for optimizing windows. But I felt, all are not complete, one software is good for Optimizing Operations Speeds, another one good for increasing network speed, may be another doing it something more - a single software is not complete solution. So, we - windows XP users hunt for new tools always for optimizing the settings for Internet and Operating System performance. After researching with many tools and manual optimization setting for windows XP, I am publishing the 1st version of registry tweaking ( pre-build ).

Few Features, what this tweak will do…

Disable Windows File Protection
Disable "Offline Files and Folders"
Enable Windows Installer Rollback (slower msi installs, but needed for installing XP updates)

Stop MSN Messenger from Running on Windows Startup

Before Applying the Patch,

  • Click Start, and then click Run.
  • In the Open box, type regedit, and then click OK
  • Place the mouse key on "My Computer"
  • On the File menu, click Export.
  • In the Save in box, select a location where you want to save the Registration Entries (.reg)
  • In the File name box, type a file name, and then click Save.

REGISTRY1.JPG (37886 bytes) REGISTRY2.JPG (41671 bytes)
(Backing up a selected branch/key of the registry)

Now that you’ve created a Registry backup for whole registry. Save the REG file in a safer location in case you want to undo the registry changes made. You can restore the settings by just double-clicking the REG file. It automatically merges the contents to the Registry.

Now, download following zip file

Faster_XP_v1.zip

Unzip the zip file and you will fing a file named XP.reg . Click on that file, and it will ask for confirmation. Press yes, and Voila !!! You are done.

Now reboot your computer and enjoy faster XP.

NOTE: If something goes wrong, select backup registry you created as per instruction , click on it and confirm with yes and it will go back to your old setting.

Enjoy !!! If it worked well for you - please don’t forgot to drop me an email which will encourage me to publish more release of it.
