How to convert your Facebook profile to a Facebook page

-
Sometimes, as a starter you may create a individual profile instead of a page for your business so as to connect to as much as people you desire. On Facebook, you will find a lot of businesses and organizations who are still using a Facebook profile instead of a page. It is nothing against the Facebook rules but, they are missing everything which a page has to provide. And once you reach out to a lot of people, it is a really good idea to convert your profile to a business page with which you can instantly notify your fans about events, discounts and special offers, see to how many people your post reached, the stats about people like from which area they are and of which gender and age group they belong.

So let's find out how to do it!

Step 1- Log in to your personal account.

Step 3- Then, click on ‘Start My Archive’ option and again click on ‘Start My Archive’ option which you will find on the pop-up window and then click ‘Okay’.

Depending on the days that it has to download, it will take a bit of time to download this copy. Once the downloading process is completed, you will receive an email confirming that the download is completed.

Step 4- Click on the link which was provided to you along with the email and again click on the ‘Download a copy’ option.

Step 5- You will be asked to re-enter your Facebook profile password to continue. Hence, enter your password and click on the ‘Continue’ option.

Step 6- Now, click on the ‘Download Archive’ option which will appear on your screen to start downloading your data. Store this data somewhere safe!

Step 7- Then, go to help center and search for ‘convert profile to page.‘ Here, you will find a topic which says ‘how to convert my profile to a page’. Tap on the link which says ‘begin here’.

Then, enter the security text and click on ‘Submit.’ Then you can enter the ‘about’ column as it is optional.

How to verify your downloaded files using MD5 Checksum on Windows?

-

MD5 stands for Message Digest version 5 . The MD5 algorithm takes a file (the “message”) of any size, and reduces it down to a code that looks like this: “ac30ce5b07b0018d65203fbc680968f5″ (the “digest”). The brilliant thing about the MD5 algorithm is that if the message changes by so much as a single byte, it will produce a completely different digest. An MD5 sum is a string of letters and numbers that acts like a fingerprint for a file. If two files have the same MD5 sum, the files are exactly alike - which is why MD5 "fingerprints" can verify whether or not your downloaded file got corrupted in transit, hence it is used to verify the integrity of files, as virtually any change to a file will cause its MD5 hash to change. MD5 digests have been widely used in the software world to provide some assurance that a transferred file has arrived intact. For example, file servers often provide a pre-computed MD5 (known as md5sum) checksum for the files, so that a user can compare th...

The World of Technology

Without technology, our lives wouldn't be just the usual walk in the park daily routine. Technology is a huge contributor to the well being of human kind. Just try to imagine how hard it would be to make it through the day without the simplest of technologies. We have grown by using the luxuries that technology provides that many wouldn't know how to adapt to the traditional and simpler methods. Technology has surely proven itself to be very beneficial, if not necessary. Some people may be confused on what exactly technology is? Technology is the systematic study of the methods and techniques employed in industry, research, agriculture, and commerce. These studies are then put to use in order to make daily life much easier. Some might think that technology is not necessary due to the opinion that it brings out the worst in people. The earliest technologies of all time are said to be made during the Paleolithic Era. When these technologies were made, language was a key factor in...

How to check your anti-virus is working or not using anti-malware testfile?

-

Say, you want to test your anti-virus program on your PC. Using real viruses for testing in the real world is rather like setting fire to the dustbin in your office to see whether the smoke detector is working. Such a test will give meaningful results, but with unappealing, unacceptable risks. Since it is unacceptable for you to send out real viruses for test or demonstration purposes, you need a file that can safely be passed around and which is obviously non-viral, but which your anti-virus software will react to as if it were a virus. The good news is that such a test file already exists. A number of anti-virus researchers have already worked together to produce a file that their (and many other) products "detect" as if it were a virus. It's called EICAR.COM anti malware testfile. It is also short and simple - in fact, it consists entirely of printable ASCII characters, so that it can easily be created with a regular text editor. So, without any further ado, lets get d...
