  1. Double use of Ctrl+Space


    Hello. A family friend noticed a few days ago, that whenever he would select files/folders with Ctrl+Space, it would prompt him to the Search bar immediately after pressing both buttons. He goes to the first file/folder as usual with the arrows, presses Ctrl, and holds it. Until he presses Space while holding Ctrl, nothing weird happens, but as soon as he selects the second file he wants, it prompts him to the Search bar of the File Explorer. The weird part is that, it occurs on both his desktop and a netbook that he has.Windows update was up-to-date, I didn't try to do anything with the langu

    Microsoft To Do -- how to change from double spaced printing

    I switched over from Wunderlist. Was able to print lists from Wunderlist, single spaced. To Do prints double spaced only, and there seems to be no way to change that. Anyone figure out how to change to single spaced? My first contact with Office support
    suggested making changes to the settings in Microsoft Word. I tried but that did not help with To Do. Second suggestion was to contact Windows support, suggesting it must then be something in Windows Settings. Wasn't able to get connected with Windows support,
    so just checking here if anyone has an answer on how to get To Do to print single spaced lists?

  3. WIn + space stopped working for me...

    While CTRL + win + Space or Shift + win + space do work. What is funny is that when i press win + space it works like I only pressed space.

    Win button is working for sure, checked it

    Languages list is showing when ctrl or shiift is additionally pressed

    Any suggestions?

    Double use of Ctrl+Space

    Viewing File Explorer as single spacing instead of double spacing

    No, the File Explorer in W10 continues to display file names in

    a double-space format, such as the one I am typing

    here. There is no way that I can find that will enable displaying them as

    single spaced lines, and the one suggestion I got was not useful.

    Kind of a useless "feature" don't you think, especially if you are

    searching through a long list of files for one particular file.

    Similarly, dropping color coding for all Office applications now deprives me

    of a real feature that I have used to great effect for years and through several

    versions of Windows and Office Outlook, especially in organizing Notes by categories, and Contacts by type.

    Lastly, now I notice in Outlook Emails, the Delete, Respond, Read/Unread Toggle, Move, and Followup icons are no longer with each email (where there is PLENTY of room) to the right-hand margin, where one has to mouse over to them. Really? Perhaps someone
    could forward these observations/complaints to the graphics people who keep churning out unnecessary changes.

    And I would really like to get these three elements back. I suppose some folks don't need the (for example) color coding, or mind (for example) the double spacing file lists. Why not put these decisions in the Options popup?

    Thanks,
