Hey Roger,

You don’t need to put anything in the “Website” box, that’s just for readers who want to insert a link to a website, usually a website that they own/run.

All you need to do is create a Google account. Go to: How To Create A Gmail Account and follow the guide.
Bear in mind that any online accounts where your wife has used the Yahoo email address as part of the sign-in credentials will need to be updated with the new Gmail address.

(Below, I do not know what to put in the box labeled “Website”)

You are welcome Lucio. It is very frustrating to know even if you opted out of it before they can still turn it back on with an update.

You are very welcome! Glad you found it useful John.

Thanks to Jim for helping out here!

The Shift + Right-click works on Taskbar icons in Windows 10.

Just need clarification on the name of that key.
Is it also known as the Windows key? If so I already use it.
My laptop doesn’t have a key on the bottom right of the keyboard that might be called a Menu key.
Just the arrows and shift and enter.

Chris,

Shift+Menu is only for Windows 11 (as per the article). For Windows 10 it’s just the Menu key, on its own.

Sorry meant to say the F-keys
The ones along the top of the keyboard. They usually work for me since they get little usual use.

Haha yes just worked that out!
No worries.
I’m gunna try the E-keys.

(with apologies to Marc for jumping in here)
Hey Clissa,
You can navigate around File Explorer and highlight a location/file/folder using the keyboard’s arrow keys. Then, select a highlighted option by hitting Enter.

For example; say you wanted to delete a file in Documents using keyboard only:
Open File Explorer (Windows + E keys)
Use the arrow keys to move to and highlight the Documents folder, and then press Enter
Use the arrow keys to scroll up and down the contents and highlight the file
When the file you want to delete is highlighted hit the Menu key
Use the arrow keys to highlight the option you want in the right-click menu (Delete) and hit Enter

HTH

Don’t know when our world became a “you are automatically signed in” or “automatic renewals”. Frustrating.

Thanks again
Lucio

Thank you so much!

So I am often left with just the keyboard shortcuts to finish whatever I was doing which these days isn’t much. Usually just adding new photos then doing a backup to keep the portable HDD refreshed.
Right click has always been invaluable but with no mouse it becomes very difficult.
And with no touchpad almost impossible.
So how can I highlight something without the touchpad or mouse? Is it vital that the thing is highlighted?
And then is there a way to bring the right click menu forward so I can use it?
I will eventually get another laptop but this house has no internet so with W11 requiring a connection from the get go, I’m stranded for a while until I bite the bullet and get a starlink service.
My phone doesn’t have enough data allowance for an initial laptop start up.
I would rather just hang with W7 or similar but still need to download stuff when the laptop is new.
Anyway got off track there.
Hope you can answer my question or perhaps it’s impossible.
And when I looked at the pic of the menu I had this image of me spending all morning scouring the list for the thing I needed. When in fact it would have been much easier to just get there the long way round.
