Changing Default App in Android

It happens with everyone who uses Android. We use multiple applications or Apps to open or process various types of files. We have choice of Apps. But by mistake or due to  some reason we set a particular App by default to handle the task. It becomes really frustrating after that . We find ourselves stuck in some apps by default to open or process the files/tasks. Here is an easy method in Android to clear or remove any such setting/settings:


  Go to
Setting  >  ; Application manager  > All  > Choose the application you want to remove as default


Find the submenu: Launch by Default  > Clear Defaults
                        Clear Cache from Cache submenu

Now you are ready to choose your own choice of Default App or get an option every time to choose the App you want. Choice is yours.

Why do defragmentation?

One of the reasons of slow or unstable performance of your PC is cluttered hard disk. Defragmentation is a process that reduces the amount of fragmentation in file systems. It does this by physically reorganizing the contents of the disk to store the pieces of each file close together and contiguously. It also creates larger regions of free space. Some defragmenters also try to keep smaller files within a single directory together, as they are often accessed in sequence.

Defragmentation of the hard disk improves system performance, stability and speed. In windows you can right click the hard drive.
You can google and find free utilities to defragment or you can also right click your drive , go to Properties.. go to Tool ..and select and you will see the process of defragment.
