RE: A Windows10 Setting May Be A Problem

2016-02-09 Thread Rick Thomas via Talk 
Hi: I just got your message but still havent gotten my own messages I sent
to the list yet - go figure.
My original message hit the archives quickly but have not been posted to my
in-box but I did get your message sosome messages are getting routed
properly I guess, others delayed or dropped and I wont know until, unless my
original messages post back to my in-box.
They should have posted before responses to the message me thinks unless
they are being held up for some reason.
Anyway, pertaining to the original message, there was nothing on this
sketting that I saw in any of the WE docs if it is in them, where did you
find the documentation about this little problem and the setting?

Rick USA.

You can press the Windows key, and when Cortana comes up, type Internet, and

this will probably point you to IE. But a better way is to find out where IE

is on your taskbar. If it is the fourth item from the left, for example, you

can type the combination Windows-4 (the 4 is on the number row) and IE will 
start up. Or you can press Windows-T, use the arrow keys to move right or 
left to Internet Explorer, then the context-menu key to open a jump list for

I E. You can up or down arrow through the jump list and open frequently used

websites using I E. Same methodology can be used for Firefox, the Windows 
file explorer, or other programs that you pin to the taskbar.

Re: A Windows10 Setting May Be A Problem

2016-02-09 Thread Tom Kingston via Talk 

Here's how to create a desktop shortcut and/or hot key on Windows 10
1. Open the cortana search box.
2. Start typing Internet Explorer until it appears.
3. Press the Application key to open the context menu.
4. Activate "Open file location".
5. You'll land on the shortcut to IE in the Start menu folder.
6. You can either open the context menu, Properties, and add a shortcut 
key, or, open the context menu, Send to, Desktop (create shortcut). Then 
you can add a shortcut to the desktop item via Properties in the context 
menu.

It's easy to change the default browser in Windows 10.  Just hit your 
windows key and that will pop up a search box.  Type in default browser 
and hit enter and when you hit your tab key you should hear the current 
default browser.  If you want to change to another browser, just enter 
on the current default and you can then tab through your browser 
choices.  Just hit enter on the one you want to be your new default, and 
your done.
