Cannot open my wordpress site after restore on MAMP

I was not able to open my wordpress site, and getting the error 

"safari cant find server" 

the problem seem related to a misdirection of the port not being redirected and trying to run the local wordpress site on port 80, as I have deleted or ruined something in the restore process. 

As a workaround, in MAMP, I went to Settings > Ports & User and then set server ports to the usual defaults, not MAMP defaults (80, 81, 443, 7443, 3306 & 11211). Then I could start the site. It is just a workaround, because, going back to "Set default MAMP ports" won't fix it.

Then I tried to open in a fresh browser (I tried opening on Edge), and it worked! So, next step, opening on a Private Window in Safari did the trick. So I deleted history from today, and it all worked fine.

vmware.exe - No Disk

I was trying to run vmware last nigh, and started receiving an error message, trying to open vmware, the moment I tried to opened, it a received the error. Vmware player was working OK, but I wanted to create a new virtual machine so I had to find a solution. The error message was: wmware.exe - No Disk There is no disk in the drive.

Apparently there is something wrong with the preferences file, locate in  %APPDATA%\VMware\ preferences .ini for  Windows  ~/.vmware/ preferences  for  Linux Not wanting to spend all night trying to solve it, I first deleted de preferences.ini file without looking into it much with  no luck. The solution: I deleted the directory VMWare, first I ...

How to find out if you are running 32-bit or 64-bit version of MySQL

I neeeded to update MySQL, installed using an automatic installer, so having passed a lot of time after I did the installation, I needed to know which version of MySQL I was running. I found two was: Inside MySQL console: mysql>show global variables like "version_compile%"; The answer was: +-------------------------+-------+ | Variable_name           | Value | +-------------------------+-------+ | version_compile_machine | x86   | | version_compile_os      | Win64 | +-------------------------+-------+ As I understand this means that I am runnig x86 version of MySQL on a Windows 64 machine, so the answer for me is that I am running the 32 bit version. x86 32 bits i686 32 bits x86-64 - 64 bits The other way to get this information is using the command prompt, in your mysqld.exe location run: mysqld --version and you will get mostly the same information. As I understand Win64 refers to the machine I am running, an...

com.pivotmobile.android.metrics file on my Android phone

I recently ran an scan on my phone using MVISION, the scan indicated that com.pivotmobile.android.metrics was sideloaded and that it should be deleted. I could not find any valuable information of its origin on the web, but looking at the application tab on my phone setting, I could find out that it was installed by Claro, my mobile service provider. So I went ahead and deleted, without a problem Take this with a little caution (backup before deleting, bla, bla, bla), but it looks to be a mobile service provider tracking file.
