Update Time v1.3

Keeping the correct time on your computer is essential because Computers apply a timestamp to the files and folders you create. You will also not be able to use some software and tools that require internet-based authorization if your system time is too far off from the current time. If you set the clock incorrectly, bad dates become a flood of erroneous information, leading to lost files, missed appointments and poor recordkeeping. Incorrect date and time settings are the most common reason for “Error Code 0x80072F8F” error, You should be able to fix this error by Correct The Date and Time.

Common Causes for Windows 10 Time Being Wrong

1. An Incorrect Time Zone Setting : Even if you fix the time manually, Windows will reset itself to the wrong time zone once you reboot.

3. Windows Time Is Out of Sync : You should first confirm that your computer is syncing its clock with a valid time server. To do this, Use the “timedate.cpl” command then Click on the “Internet Time” tab (1) and Click on “Change settings…” (2) finally choose a server and use Update Now button (3)

If you want to force Windows 10 time to synch with a time server Press Windows key + X and select Command prompt(Admin). Type each one of the command below and press enter.

Copy Public IP v1.3

An IP address is an identifier for devices on a TCP/IP network, Every device that connects to the Internet has its own Internet Protocol (IP) address. IP addresses make it possible, among other things, for computers from different networks to find each other. IP addresses are vital for all Internet-based activities, and yet it’s not uncommon that a user doesn’t know his computer’s IP. IP addresses are one of the most critical resources that need to be managed in any network . All IPv4 IP addresses can be divided into two major groups , External and local IP addresses both serve the same purpose, the difference is scope.

1. External (Public) IP Address : Global, or public, or external this group can also be called ‘WAN addresses’. An external or public IP address is used across the entire Internet to locate computer systems and devices. Your Internet Service Provider (ISP) assigns you an external IP address when you connect to the Internet. When your web browser requests a webpage, it sends this IP address along with it. Your ISP uses this to know which of its customers are requesting which webpage.

2. Local (Internal) IP Address : Private, or local, or internal addresses, those that are used in the local network (LAN).A local or internal IP address is used inside a private network to locate the computers and devices connected to it. If your computer is connected to a router with default settings, that router will automatically assign a local IP address to your computer. Your local IP address is hidden from the outside world and used only inside your private network. You generally don’t need to know much about it unless you’re trying to set up a game or web server.

Addresses in IPv4 are 32-bits long. This allows for a maximum of 4,294,967,296 (232) unique addresses. Addresses in IPv6 are 128-bits, which allows for 3.4 x 1038 (2128) unique addresses.

How to Find your External IP address

Copy IP is a Portable freeware to find your İnternet IP address easily, to use it just double click on it – you will see an information on the system tray , it will show your external ip address .

Copy Public IP Application has Cmd parameter support

With your suggestions We can add it extra features and develop it further

Folder Painter v1.3

All of us want our computer to be well organized, as it would be easier to access your files and folders when you need it. Apart from organizing your files using separate folders for different kind of files, you can also customize the folder itself. One of the pertinent issues that most of us come across often is that we just can’t instantly seem to locate the folder we need because all of them look the same. We then resort to searching for its name or taking a more closer look. This can be taken care of if we could add different colors to the folders in Windows Explorer . If you can assign a different color to different folders, then it would become easier to access them next time. After all, recognizing a folder with a color would be much easier than going through the names of the folder.

Windows 10 doesn’t have any options for you to customize folder colors. FolderPainter is a freeware that lets you color your Windows explorer folder color and change it from the default yellow color. Using this application, you can assign any color to your frequently accessed folders for example your financial folder can be green (like money) and your tasks folder can be red (urgent maybe?). After that No longer will you have to run your eyes over many folders to access your favorite folder. Having a different color will make the folder stand out, so that you can open it quickly.

BlueLifeHosts editor v1.3

when you type a domain name in your browser that you wish to connect to, your application must first convert it to an IP address that it will use to connect to.The way these hostnames are resolved to their mapped IP address is called Domain Name Resolution. On almost all operating systems whether they be Apple, Linux, Unix, Netware, or Windows the majority of resolutions from domain names to IP addresses are done through a procedure called DNS. DNS stands for Domain Name System and is the standard domain name resolution service used on the Internet , There is another way to resolve domain names without using the Domain Name System, and that is by using your HOSTS file. Almost every operating system that communicates via TCP/IP, the standard of communication on the Internet, has a file called the HOSTS file. This file allows you to create mappings between domain names and IP addresses Another way to think of a hosts file is as an address translator and redirector.
