A couple of days ago I was surfing in the Internet looking for some real Vista hacks to apply to my ORIGINAL Windows Vista, just for fun and improve my wonderful operating system a little bit. To my surprise I found out that there are a lot of fake hacks in the web and a lot, really a lot of junk. I mean: clicking on Computer, right click on C: , click on property and tick off “Compress this drive to save disk space” should be well known to everybody and should not be marked as “Hack”, right? On a lot of website instead this little, silly feature is sold as a big hack most of people don’t know about! I mean, are all users real noobs or what? That’s why, apart from inviting you to read this guide of mine, I want to report some real hack people should know. Be sure, they are hacks and not regular features dressed in something else to make them look more appealing! By the way, I used the word hack. But I really don’t like it. Nothing here has to do with hackers or with irregular procedures. They are simple tweaks not to activate or get something for free (and illegally possibly), but just to improve and make your Windows Vista a little sexier.
