What can you do with Facebook Messenger?
- Chat with your friends
- Send GIFs, stickers, and photos
- Make video calls
- Send people money in Messenger
Have you ever wondered to Play a game while you chat with friends?
Yes, it is possible.
Facebook had made it to the reality by building a hidden built-in functionality in Facebook Messenger that lets you play Chess with your friends without having to install a third-party app.
It just takes one simple step to unlock this hidden game.
All you need to do is: type "@fbchess play" and hit Enter, during a conversation, and a small square box would appear in the chat box.
Here's how to play: The person who initiated the game would be assigned "White" side, to make the first movement.
Although there is some standard algebraic notation like:-
- B for “Bishop”
- R for “Rook”
- Q for “Queen”
- K for “King”
- N for “Knight”
- P for “Pawn”
Pawns could be moved by issuing the simple commands with numbers (along with the vertical axes).
For, e.g. If your first play would take the second pawn from the left and move it up one block, you would write: ‘@fbchess Pb3,’ or simply ‘@fbchess b3.'
You could refer to the help section by issuing the command "@fbchess help" for the possible commands to assist you throughout the game.
It turns out that the commands are case sensitive. The board will update and notify you whether it is your turn to play.
You can undo a move with "@fbchess undo" command or by clicking the "undo" button — but your opponent has to accept the request to undo.
The game would also allow you to have a conversation during the game with your friend, resumes the game by issuing the game commands.
FB Chess is currently available for both mobile and web platforms, eliminating the need to download it separately.
This new Productive Time Killer Game initiated to entertain its users by sharpening brain while having a chat with your mate equally.

We do have data in our computer which are confidential and are to need to be kept secure and away from the access of all other’s using your computer. Simplest way to do so it to lock the folder with password and make it secure. So in this article we are going to discuss How to password protect a folder without using any third party software in Windows, MAC or Linux OS ? Or we can say in short how to Folder Lock without using any software.
There are mainly three OS running in the market they are Windows, MAC and Linux. Since all three are different each one has different methods to be adopted for folder lock.
Folder Locking in Windows OS without using any software to protect your confidential data :
Here we will be discussing methods to folder lock without using any software in windows. To do so follow below steps :
Step 1 : Copy the following code into the notepad.
cls
@ECHO OFF
title Folder Locker
if EXIST “Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}” goto UNLOCK
if NOT EXIST Locker goto MDLOCKER
:CONFIRM
echo Are you sure u want to Lock the folder(Y/N)
set/p “cho=>”
if %cho%==Y goto LOCK
if %cho%==y goto LOCK
if %cho%==n goto END
if %cho%==N goto END
echo Invalid choice.
goto CONFIRM
:LOCK
ren Locker “Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}”
attrib +h +s “Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}”
echo Folder locked
goto End
:UNLOCK
echo Enter password to Unlock folder
set/p “pass=>”
if NOT %pass%==type your password here goto FAIL
attrib -h -s “Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}”
ren “Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}” Locker
echo Folder Unlocked successfully
goto End
:FAIL
echo Invalid password
goto end
:MDLOCKER
md Locker
echo Locker created successfully
goto End
:End
Step 2 : Replace the line “type your password here” with the password you wish to keep for the folder.
Step 3 : Rename the notepad into some unique names like system 32, system file, etc. Also change the extension to .bat from .txt so that the file may look like system file and no one will touch it.
Step 4 : Now place the file (.bat) which you created in last step into the folder where the confidential data which is to be locked is present. Click on the .bat file to run it.
Step 5 : Doing the last step will make out a folder named “locker” now copy all data and place it into that folder. Click on the .bat file once again and the folder will get hidden and data in it will be password protected along with the folder lock.
Note: You can change the folder name from “locker” to whatever you wish just replace word locker from that .bat file with name you wish to give to the folder.
Step 6 : Now your data is safe, password protected and hidden in the locker folder. To get back the data click on the .bat file once again and you will be prompted with a command prompt enter the password and the locker folder will be unhided and can be accessed.
This way you can secure your data in windows by folder locking your data and without using any software. But do take in mind this method is not completely secure. So use it only when your data is not so much confidential.
Folder Locking in MAC OS without using any software to protect your confidential data :
Here you will find methods to folder lock files in MAC OS without using any software. To do so follow below steps :
Step 1 : Open “Disk Utility” in your Computer.
Step 2 : Go to “File” then click on “New” then click on “Disk Image from Folder”.
Step 3 : Choose the folder here which you wish to password protect.
Step 4 : Choose “AES-128″ folder encryption and then click on Save.
This way you will be able to password protect your files in MAC OS without using any software.
Folder Locking in Linux OS without using any software to protect your confidential data :
To secure your files in Linux all you need to do is move the files to a single folder and check out the read permissions for other and group are not set to access it. And then follow below steps :
Step 1 : To do all you need to do is create a folder and move the files to be secured into it.
Step 2 : Open terminal and type the following command :
chmod -R go-rx FOLDER NAME
Replace “FOLDER NAME” with your folder name. This will set security level to read, write and execute for you and for all others it will get secure. No one else except you can’t access this file now. Do take care that still root user can access your folder. So in Linux to password protect your folder you need to use compression software. All you need to do is give password to folder while compressing it using that’s it.
Above are some of the easiest way to password protect a folder without using any third party software in Windows , MAC or Linus OS. If you have got any query related to any of method specified above you can comment your query below and i will try to solve them out.

Faster
How many times have you been writing an email and had to reference something in another message? Saving a draft, opening the old email, and then reopening your draft wastes valuable minutes. The new compose pops up in a window, just like chats (only larger).
This makes it easy to reference any other emails without ever having to close your draft. You can even do a search or keep an eye on new mail as it comes in. And because the compose window works the same way as chats, you can write multiple messages at once and minimize a message to finish it later.
Easier to use
The new compose is designed to let you focus on what's important: your message. The controls are still there when you need them but get out of the way when you don’t. They've even added some new features like the ability to easily insert inline images and have more to come.
And, when you add recipients to your message, you'll see profile pictures of your contacts in auto complete helping you find the right person faster. You can also drag and drop the new address chips between to:, cc: and bcc:. When you’re done adding recipients, the address area collapses automatically to get out of your way.
You’ll also see these same changes when you respond to a message. The reply experience has been designed to fit better inline as part of your conversation -- replies take up much less vertical height, intelligently expand to fit your content, and always keep the recipients and other controls in view no matter how long your message gets.
They have rolled out a preview of the new compose and reply today. Over the coming months, it will be enabled for everyone.
