Creating a custom keyboard Shortcuts can save valuable time for you and for your work when you use various Windows apps and software on a regular basis.
Keyboard shortcuts in Microsoft Windows, in fact, on every operating system, have made our lives easier. If there wouldn’t have been these helpful key combinations, then we would have to follow longer paths to do various tasks.

If you use some Windows software more frequent than others then you can create custom keyboard shortcuts for those Software in Microsoft Windows.Even if you have saved your favorite apps on the Desktop, using keyboard shortcuts is much easier and faster because you don’t have to visit the desktop every time to open your desired software.

So, today in this post I'll sow you How You can set Custom Windows Keyboard Shortcut in Microsoft Windows  to open any software and apps by just some key combinations and save your valuable time.  

Microsoft  provides its users' the functionality to set custom Windows keyboard shortcuts which can be used to open individual apps and software in Windows. This relieves us from the hard work required to follow the long path to execute i.e. open the start menu, find the app, and then open it.

 So, Let's see How to do it:

How to create custom keyboard shortcuts to open any software in Windows:

It’s quite simple to set a custom keyboard shortcut to open a particular app or software in any version of Windows. Just Follow the simple Steps to Enable custom keyboard shortcuts:

Step1: Choose any shortcut file of software for which you want to open with keyboard shortcut. (Here I am gonna show you with Shortcut of VLC Media Player.)

Step2: Right-click the Software's shortcut file for which you want to create the custom shortcut.


Step3: Click Properties.

Step4: Under the Shortcuts tab, click the Shortcuts Key field.

http://tecube.blogspot.com/2017/03/how-to-create-keyboard-shortcut-to-open.html

Step5: Type any alphabet, Symbol, or Numpad key according to your choice.
Windows will set the custom shortcut for the app according to the key you’ve chosen. 
e.g.: If you use the letter V for VlC media Player, then the shortcut will become CTRL+ALT+V.

See below Image how your Shortcut will assign:

http://tecube.blogspot.com/2017/03/how-to-create-keyboard-shortcut-to-open.html

Step6: Click Apply and click Ok.

Now, you can open VLC Media Player directly by pressing the keyboard shortcut (ctrl+alt+v). 
This method works only for shortcut files.You can’t use the characters which activates  using the shift key, i.e., the !, @, #, $, etc.
Tip :- The /,*,-,+ keys that are part of the Numpad can work without pressing CTRL+ALT. So, if you set one these keys as the keyboard shortcut, you can launch a particular Software by pressing that key alone.

Later, if you want to remove the custom Windows keyboard shortcut, follow the above method till Step 4 and press the Backspace key in the Shortcuts field.This will cleaar the shortcut key field.



So, what you will do if you want to use keyboard Shortcut for Windows apps that are present in Windows 8, 8.1 and 10?
Windows apps doesn’t have a shortcut, but you can create one.


Create shortcut file for Windows apps.

You can also create custom Windows keyboard shortcuts for the modern Windows apps present on the Windows 8, 8.1, and 10. 
Here are the steps to create a shortcut file for modern apps:

Step1: Open Start Menu in Windows.

Step2: Navigate to any modern app for which you want to create a shortcut file.

Step3: Click and drag the app to the desktop. Here I am showing you Microsoft Solitaire Collection Game app.Windows will automatically create a shortcut file for the modern app.

http://tecube.blogspot.com/2017/03/how-to-create-keyboard-shortcut-to-open.html

Step4: Now, you can go to the properties and set a custom keyboard shortcut for the app. Just like We did for software shortcut file. Here I inserted Letter 'M' for Microsoft Solitaire Collection Game. You can see below Image:

http://tecube.blogspot.com/2017/03/how-to-create-keyboard-shortcut-to-open.html

Step5: Now Click Apply and click Ok.
Now whenever you press this shortcut your Microsoft Solitaire game will open, without going to start menu and app section.

List of Android Smartphones Hiding Pre-Installed Malware

Android Smartphones Hiding Pre-Installed Malware.
http://tecube.blogspot.com/2017/03/android-smartphones-hiding-pre.html

Well, Android devices are often affected by Malware or spyware. Previously, we have heard much news regarding Android malware. However, it looks like some smartphones in India has pre-installed malware.

That means lots of Android devices are already being shipped with pre-installed Malware. Yes, you read that right, Malwares are already present on those Android smartphones even before purchasing.

The risk of pre-installed malware:

As a general rule, users should avoid risky websites and download apps only from official and trusted app stores. However, following these guidelines is not enough to ensure their security. Pre-installed malware compromise the security even of the most careful users. In addition, a user who receives a device already containing malware will not be able to notice any change in the device’s activity which often occur once a malware is installed.

The discovery of the pre-installed malware raises some alarming issues regarding mobile security. Users could receive devices which contain backdoors or are rooted without their knowledge. To protect themselves from regular and pre-installed malware, users should implement advanced security measures capable of identifying and blocking any abnormality in the device’s behavior.

Recently, Check Point Software Technologies have released a report in which they have claimed that almost 36 Android smartphone in India comes pre-installed with malware. 
The report claimed-
The malicious apps were not part of the official ROM supplied by the vendor, and were added somewhere along the supply chain, Six of the malware instances were added by a malicious actor to the device’s ROM using system privileges, meaning they couldn’t be removed by the user and the device had to be re-flashed.

The more shocking part is the report also claimed that since the malware is on the backend, users operating the device won’t even know about the malware’s existence. Well, most of the malware that are developed for Android devices can steal confidential data from users.
Few are them from Ad networks which are intended to push ads frequently. While others are ransomware which locks the devices and demands ransom in return for unlocking the files. 

Here’s the list of affected smartphones: 

  • Galaxy Note 2
  • Samsung Galaxy Note 3
  • Samsung Galaxy Note 4
  • Samsung Galaxy Note Edge
  • Samsung Galaxy Note 5
  • Samsung Galaxy S7
  • Samsung Galaxy S4
  • Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0
  • Samsung Galaxy A5
  • Samsung Galaxy Tab S2
  • Samsung Galaxy Tab 2
  • Xiaomi Mi 4i
  • Xiaomi Redmi
  • ZTE x500
  • Oppo N3
  • Oppo R7 plus
  • Vivo X6 plus
  • Asus Zenfone 2
  • Lenovo S90
  • Lenovo A850
  • LG G4

On it's Website Checkpoint Software Technologies have Listed Malware's name Also.

You can go to their website and check the Malware's name.


If your device is listed above, then you only have one option that is to reflash the ROM. Well, if you know how to do it, then you can do this manually, or else you need to visit your nearest service center of the brand.

Well, this is something companies should look before supplying smartphones to users.

  2. Use email to send an invitation: You can send invitation directly via email but it requires email client on your machine to send email like outlook etc.
  3. Use Easy connect: Another method to directly connect two PC is using Easy connect but this require some basic settings at your routers end i.e. If the computer has IPv6 disabled or is behind a NAT router that blocks Teredo traffic, the Easy Connect option will be unavailable.

http://tecube.blogspot.com/2017/03/crack-wpawpa2-encryption-using-fluxion.html
Image Source: Pinterest


Today in this post I will Tell You How to Crack WPA/WPA2 Wifi Password Without Dictionary/Brute Fore Attack using Fluxion.

Fluxion, A Key To Pentesting/Hacking Your WPA/WPA2 Security Without Brute Force.
Fluxion script has been available for a while and is most apt for security researchers and pentesters to test their network security by hacking WPA/WPA2 security without brute forcing it. 

Fluxion is based on another script called linset. Fluxion is not much different from Linset but makes use of certain improvements, bug fixes, and additional features. Fluxion works by using something like a man in the middle attack/ evil twin attack to get WPA password instead of going the bruteforce/dictionary route.

Fluxion is compatible with the latest release of Kali (Rolling). Download the Latest builds (stable) and (beta) here. 

Disclaimer : Use this tool only on networks you own. Hacking networks that you don’t own may be illegal in your country.

Requirements:
  • Linux operating system
  • Kali Linux 2 or Kali 2016.1 rolling or
  • Kali 2 & 2016 support the latest Aircrack-ng versions
  • External Wi-Fi card is recommended


How to Crack Encryption:

Step 1: Scan the networks.

Step 2: Capture a handshake (can’t be used without a valid handshake, it’s necessary to verify the password)

Step 3: Use WEB Interface *

Step 4: Launch a FakeAP instance to imitate the original access point

Step 5: Spawns a MDK3 process, which de-authenticates all users connected to the target network, so they can be lured to connect to the FakeAP and enter the WPA password.

Step 6: A fake DNS server is launched in order to capture all DNS requests and redirect them to the host running the script

Step 7: A captive portal is launched in order to serve a page, which prompts the user to enter their WPA password

Step 8: Each submitted password is verified by the handshake captured earlier

Step 9: The attack will automatically terminate, as soon as a correct password is submitted

A Video Tutorial on Hacking WPA/WPA2 Using Fluxion:



It depends on the victim.This method don’t crack the password. This is a phishing method.
When you capture wpa handshake, you block victim’s wifi and create a new wifi spot without protection with the same name. 
Then the victim must connect in this wifi. When the victim connected in your new wifi, will be displayed a login page. Then the victim will write his password.

Once again, This Tutorial is only for Testing Purpose. Use this tool only on networks you own. Hacking networks that you don’t own may be illegal in your country.
