Hello!! I’m just posting this to say that I’m still alive. ;-) My last post was more than 5 months ago. So I’ll give a summary of how I spent last few months.

I was working on my studies in last October and November. Then in December I was back with Paradox Software and started working on some projects. Especially Conwitter. :-)

Conwitter is a twitter client for Google Chrome (I know that most of you already know ;-) ). The best thing is in Conwitter that I like is that I can read each and every tweet without missing a single tweet. Beside that there are many reasons to use it.

Here you can find features it has up to today.

If you are already using twitter or going to use twitter you can give it a try. Remember it’s free :D and you can install it from here.

I’m sure you’ll love it. ;-)

Recover accidentally deleted NTFS partitions

Oct 16

Few weeks ago, I deleted an NTFS partition on one of my friend’s PC which contains most valuable data. :shock: It was an accident because of using Windows Disk Manager to change active partition. Suddenly 2 partitions on the Extended Partition disappeared. So, This is the way how I survive my life. :D

First advice is not to use crappy Windows Disk Manager to modify partitions. Instead use Gparted which is available on most of Linux Live CD’s. Then you are almost on safe side.

Recovering can only done if you did not do any modification to deleted/unallocated space after losing partitions. I used Active Partition Recovery tool for this purpose. It’s available on Hiren’s Boot CD. It is a Bootable CD which contains bundle of very useful tools  and can be download free. It also included mini Windows XP version too.

It was my lucky day,  I had the iso with me but never used that. Because there were no reason before to use it. I burned it into a CD and started PC from it.

I selected “Start BootCD” option from the it’s boot menu and then shows a categorized menu again and went through this path “Recovery Tools” -> “Active Partition Recovery”.

Did a scan using the tool in unallocated space and it detected deleted partitions and confirmed to add to drive list pressing ‘Y’.

detected

Confirm to recover

After recovering all the partitions it will ask to save changes when you press escape. Press ‘Y’ and that’s all. :cool:

Save recoverd partitions to disk

Save recoverd partitions to disk

Finally, My thank goes to Kalinga for recommending Hiren’s Boot CD as a all in one System Recovery Tool Kit earlier and for remind me it on that day when I called him.

And I should thank Erandika for giving her PC to do this scary experiments. ;)

Hello world!

Hello Girls n Guys!! :D .   I started blogging. That’s why I’m saying “Hello World” :lol: .  When starting a blog, computer geeks use their prefer programming language to say “Hello World”. As you know I’m not a geek :cool: .  so I just Google to find a special way to say it. I got a site which have 428 Hello world programs and 63 human languages. :shock:   So you have the freedom of choosing any language to accept my warm welcome. ;)

Ok, then what kind of things going to publish here? :roll:    Well I didn’t think about it yet. :P    I might write in Sinhala as well. So you better have Unicode character support for Sinhala in your computer. How we going to check it? Just check whether below line can read or not. It has all 26 letters of sinhala alphabet. :lol:

“ද ක්වික් බ්‍රවුන් ෆයර්ෆොක්ස් ජම්ප්ස් ඕවර් ද ලේසි ඉන්ටර්නෙට් එක්ස්ප්ලෝරර්”

If you cant read it that means either your Operating System(OS) doesn’t have Sinhala support or you may don’t know Sinhala. ;)    Don’t worry just go here and follow the guidelines according to your OS.

Now the time is for comments. :D    Tell me how is this whether good or bad. I guess you will come back to read next post too. ;) 

p.s.- special thank goes to "Something different". ;)
