Mouse Jiggler keeps your computer awake by preventing screensavers from popping up when you don't want to.

You can enable Mouse Jiggler when you have other things to do but don't want your computer to go to sleep. Your mouse pointer will start moving every minute. This action is enough to make windows think you are still using your laptop.

2.What is the difference between a laptop and a tablet?

Both are portable computer devices that work on batteries. They are very easy to use and offer many features to the user. Although they offer similar functionality, there are fundamental differences between laptops and tablets. We will discuss the same in this article. However, let us first look at them separately.

What is a laptop?

A laptop is an all-in-one computer device that can run on AC power or a battery that can last for several hours (when working). People can easily carry a laptop around with them and use it anywhere. The AC power or battery used in these devices makes them easy to carry and transport.

A laptop uses a screen that is either LCD or LED. It is also known as a notebook. It is basically a compact portable version of a desktop computer with all its outputs, inputs and processing devices built into one package.

What is a Tablet PC?

A tablet or tablet PC is also a portable system/computer device that can be operated using a mobile operating system (OS). It is equipped with a touch screen display and a built-in rechargeable battery. A tablet is a flat, thin and light device which does not have a physical keyboard attached.

The battery life of a tablet is much better than that of a laptop. These devices are light in weight and easy to carry around in all users.

Tablets vs Laptops

Below is a list of the differences between tablets and laptops.

3.How old is my laptoph?

How to tell how old your computer is? Whether you want to know how old your laptop computer is because you think it might need an upgrade, or you want to check if your system is still under warranty, there are some simple ways to tell how old your system is.

In this guide, we outline four different ways to find out how old your computer is.

1. Check the serial number of your computer or laptop (if it has one)

If you purchased a pre-built system from a company such as Dell or HP, or if you have a laptop, it is likely that your computer has a label somewhere with the serial number on it. On a desktop computer, the serial number may be located on the back of the computer. For laptops, the serial number may be located on the bottom of the case.

Once you have found the serial number of your system, simply type it into Google and the manufacturer's website will appear and they should have information about your computer - including the approximate date of manufacture.

2. Check your BIOS version via the command prompt: systeminfo.exe

Running the systeminfo.exe command prompt will extract a lot of information on your computer that can be used to help estimate the age of your system.

his prompt will also tell you the "original installation date" of Windows, but this date can be misleading because Windows resets the listed installation date every time a major Windows update is released. For example, I know that my computer was built in December 2017, but the "original install date" in the systeminfo.exe prompt says "August 13, 2019".

So a better way to check via systeminfo.exe is to look at the "BIOS version" listed. For me, it says American Megatrends Inc. 0408, 8/31/2017. This is very close to the date I built the computer and close enough to give a good idea of how old the computer is.

The following is a step-by-step process for obtaining system information via a command prompt.

In the Windows search box in the taskbar, type cmd and press Enter.
When the Command Prompt window opens, type systeminfo.exe and press Enter.
Scroll down until you see "BIOSVersion:"
Check the date listed

However, if you have updated the BIOS after you have purchased the computer, it may not be possible to give an exact date. Also, if you have purchased a second-hand computer, there is no guarantee that the BIOS was not updated by the previous owner. Therefore, even if you have checked the date shown after the "BIOS version", it is best to cross-check the date using some of the other methods listed here.

3. Check the release date of your PC CPU

Another way to get a rough estimate of the age of your computer is to check the CPU you have and then see when it was first manufactured. This method will not give you a super accurate date for the age of your computer. New CPUs come out about every year, but some computer manufacturers do use older generation processors in their budget-oriented systems, and the system you buy is likely to be sitting on the shelf (or - if you buy it online - in stock) for any given time.

In general, however, checking the original release date of your CPU will give you at least a rough idea of how old your computer is - especially if you cross-check it using the methods outlined in this guide.

Here is how to check the original CPU release date.

In the Windows search box in the taskbar, type sysinfo and press Enter.
Your CPU will be listed next to "Processor"
Get the name of your processor and search for it in Google
Click on the manufacturer's website (Intel or AMD)
Somewhere on this page, there should be the initial release date of your processo

4.Checking the Modified Date date of the folder in the (C:) drive

Another method you can use to help you determine how old your computer or laptop is is to check the "modification date" date of the folder in your computer's (C:) drive.

This is another method that is not completely proven and you may see items in the (C:) drive that are actually older than the computer. However, again, this may be a good way to cross-check the information you find using the methods listed above.

Here's how to check your (C:) drive folder.

In the Windows search box in the taskbar, type File Explorer and press Enter.
Click on "This computer" in the File Explorer on the left
Then, double click on "Local Disk (C:)"
Check the "Modified by" date listed after the folder
You can also click twice on the "Modified by" tab to sort by the oldest item

4.How to connect keyboard to laptop?

Laptops have their own unique keys, but can you connect a external keyboard to a laptop? The answer is yes. If you have broken keys on your computer or want to use a more powerful external keyboard, then this article will be helpful to you.

Step 1: Install the battery into the keyboard (if it is a rechargeable keyboard, please fully charge it). Open the device manager with win+X and make sure your computer has a bluetooth device.

Step 2: In the upper right corner of the Windows 10 desktop, click Settings - Change Computer Design - Computer and Devices - Bluetooth, turn on Bluetooth and search for devices, and find the "pairing and connection ready" device corresponding to the Bluetooth keyboard.
