task reminder tools and applications that one could use to keep a tab on his to-do list. So much so that one doesn’t care to look into the default Windows features or tools to see if there’s something like that available.

Of course, there are apps like Tasker that can control these aspects easily enough but they are too complicated to configure....

Let’s understand it in a simple way. 64 bit version can deal with physical memory (RAM) above 4 GB and up to 128GB (yes, it exists!) while 32-bit version can address RAM up to 4 GB only.

And you can choose to use any one of them that suits your style and taste — basically related to how you wish to receive and organise the emails. Google offers its Gmail users two ways to organise and read their emails — the classic ‘Priority’ inbox and the new-age ‘Default’ inbox which makes use of multiple tabs segregating Primary/Social/Promotion emails. What’s the Difference? When using ‘Priority’ inbox only shows read and unread emails — which can be further sorted by metrics like ‘important’ and ‘starred’ — on a desktop and separates all emails from the important ones which are marked as ‘Priority’ on the Gmail app....
