How to automatically update all Third Party software in Windows Computer ?
On Windows Computer, we can use the Windows Update to install patches and updates from Microsoft. Any new updates available from Microsoft are installed. That is all right. But we don't use Microsoft software alone do we? In fact, except for those using Microsoft Office programs, most people use Third Party software for majority of their needs.
Most users manage software updates manually - either the software notify us that there is a newer version or we check out manually from the software's website and download new updates or versions. Now this is all right too, but sometimes, a software that does not notify of new updates or those which are not frequently used might be missed. And it may be a tedious task to go to each software's website to check out for newer versions. What if we could manage third party software updates automatically by using some programs?

How to export Facebook events and sync it with Google Calendar and Windows Calendar?
In this post we will see how to export Facebook Events and sync it with Google calendar and also with Windows calendar. But why Google Calendar? Why not sync it directly with Windows Calendar if that is the intent? Because by default, Windows Calendar allows us to add only the following email accounts - Microsoft Account, Outlook.com, Exchange, Google, iCloud, and Internet Email such as Yahoo. It does not include Facebook here.
Why take the trouble? Can't I simply login to Facebook and check? The need and reasons may vary from person to person but this may be handy if you are using Windows Calendar most of the time on your Windows computer to manage your events and reminders etc. It may also be useful to see all events, added to Windows Calendar and Facebook events in one single Calendar to assist in planning your activities and tasks.
