Windows 10: Caret browsing F7 key

The most recent update to windows forces me to answer the caret browsing question every time I press F7. I play a game that uses F7 for a critical feature. Every time I restart the game I get the same question even if I check the checkbox to remember. Is there a way to change the behavior to ctrl-F7 or alt-F7?


Mapping this to an unmodified function key is a terrible choice. You’ve impacted a lot of software by permanently altering the behavior of a commonly used key. I’m not saying that giving an easy method of controlling caret browsing is bad, but the chosen implementation is unacceptable.

Caret browsing setting in Edge

Yes, as I stated in my original post, I'm aware of the F7 key. Nevertheas, for reasons too involved to get into here, I'm looking for a "visual" setting within Edge to turn this feature on/off, like the caret browsing toggle switch that used to be in the
Setting menu

 

how do i permanently disble caret browsing?

Firefox & Edge - Press F7 to toggle caret browsing enable / disable

Chrome - Crate browsing is not part of the installation unless enabled through extension

 

Caret Browsing prompt

I ticked to box on the caret browsing prompt to stop being asked if I wanted to use caret browsing or not and to use F7 instead.

Would anyone know HOW I may reinstate this option please (If there is a video available also, it would be a bonus)

The way shown on some routes is to go through the ... at top right- Then to "Settings" - Then to "View Advanced Settings" and select "Caret Settings" which is just below "Use Adobe Flash" BUT as you can see on my route, the "Caret Settings" choice is missing.

(I have looked at Open other sites in Apps but this proved to be a false trail.

As a result I am at a loss to know where else to look for this. Hence my question.



Thanks.

Kind regards
