A Guide To Mac OS Snow Leopard

Launched in the summer of 2009, the Mac OS Snow Leopard is the new Apple operating system for Mac machines. It is the seventh operating system from Apple to be released and the most successful due to its small cost of £25. It has been greatly altered to be more efficient and have a smaller memory footprint since the last OS from Mac, the Tiger OS.

The Mac OS X Snow Leopard is an upgrade from the last OS, which mainly focuses upon memory, performance and efficiency improvements. Very little has changed in the way of interface, looks and user's experience, although there have been some vital system readjustments, including the use of 64 bit, making your computer faster and more secure. Snow Leopard still supports 32 bit applications, but has drastically improved upon user experience of these by speeding up processors and limiting Safari's (Apple's internet browser) problems with crashing.

Apple Mac have improved upon prior operating systems, by including a greater control over power management. For instance their Wake on Demand feature, which means the computer automatically wakes up when requested by the router carrying out queries, allows greater control and management over power and processes.

Furthermore, the central unit, Grand Central Dispatch, has made parallel programming way more efficient. It acts as a central point that organises all that is needed for a program to run, rather than allows individual applications to organise the processes, enabling the computer to use far less memory and run way faster.

So overall, the Mac OS Snow Leopard is faster, more efficient and more powerful, making it the ultimate specialist system for those with computer intensive jobs, such as programmers and graphic designers. For Mac OS Snow Leopard to run your need a Mac computer with intel processor, 1GB of RAM, 5GB of free disc space and a DVD drive. The Mac OS Snow Leopard is not, however, supported by Power Macs, PowerBooks, iBooks,eMacs, iMacs and some models pre 2006.

Prevent Users Delete or Uninstall Programs

way that the user can not remove or uninstall the program. Indeed, sometimes on a computer that is used by more than one user, where all users have administrator rights, the uninstall program could happen. Perhaps because of factors due to deliberate or mis accident. Moreover, the removed program is a very important program and coincidentally also the installer is not there anymore. It must be hard again to get the program. Then how do I prevent it?
There is a tips for for the program can not be deleted or be uninstalled by the uninstaller to block executable files from the program. Executable files from the uninstaller is usually named uninstall.exe, uninstall.msi, unwise.exe, uninst.exe and some other programs can be different.How do I know the file the uninstaller of a program?

There are several ways to find files of a program uninstaller that is:The first way is by looking at the program folder located at C: / Program Files / NAME OF PROGRAM / (assuming your Windows is on drive C: /).

The second way is by looking through the Windows Registry that is the path:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/Uninstall/NAMA PROGRAM/

(Replace NAME OF PROGRAM with the name of the program that you want to see uninstallernya).Then on the right side look at the value named UninstallString. That the location and file name uninstallernya. Examples for the program Digsby, I see the path:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/Uninstall/Digsby/

Then it is UninstallString C: / Program Files / Digsby / uninstall.exe. Means his name is Uninstall.exe uninstaller file that is located in the folder C: / Program Files / Digsby.

Uninstaller file name of a program you already know the two steps above. Next we proceed to block executable files for the program uninstaller earlier can not be deleted or uninstalled. Still the same way by blocking the program in Windows that I've posted previously. Here are the steps to prevent that the user can not remove the program or prevent the uninstall program:

   1. Click Start »Run. Type gpedit.msc and press Enter to open the Group Policy Editor
   2. In the Group Policy Editor window click the User Configuration »Administrative Templates» System.

3. On the right side double click (double click) the item named Do not run specified Windows Applications.

4. In the window Do not run specified Windows Applications Settings that appears click the Enabled option and click the Show button.

5. Then, in the Show Contents window that appears, enter the name of the executable installer from programs that do not want deleted by another user. For example, the program name is Digsby as I mentioned above. Uninstaller file name is Uninstall.exe. Then, type "uninstall.exe" in the list.

6. If you want to include the uninstaller program to another, first look at the file name uninstallernya with how to view the file uninstaller above. If the same file name, you do not have to enter it again. If the file name is not the same, then you must memasukkanya again.
   7. If all the uninstaller file name you have entered, click the OK button to save. Then click the OK button is also on the window Do not run specified Windows Applications previous settings and close the Group Policy Editor.
Everything has been done up to here. Now try to uninstall a program that you have entered in the list. Does the uninstall process can be done? If it does not mean all of them successful. If not, check whether the name of the uninstaller files you've typed correctly.
