    Highlight and copy !


    In my Music folder I have about 30 tracks listed which I would like to copy and paste. If I press Ctrl and A they are all highlighted ready to copy etc. The problem is there are some tracks that I don't want to be highlighted. Is it possible to highlight just the ones I want ? I guess this would apply to any text document etc. At present I am highlighting just one at a time which is a painstaking task ! I seem to think it can be done but I have forgot how !!Brian

    :)

    Issue Highlighting and copy Text selection with mouse

    Hi DorothyKaltz,



    Thank you for posting your concern on Microsoft Answer Community.



    I recommend you to follow the below steps, and check if that helps.



    Method: Highlighting and copy with mouse.



    1. Click on the Windows logo
    2. Go to Settings
    3. Open the mouse & touchpad setting
    4. Turn off Scroll inactive windows
    5. Click on Advanced Mouse Options
    6. Adjust double click speed – (turning this setting down will help)


    We await your response.


    Regards,

    Highlight for copy and paste too sesitive in Windows 10

    Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable



    1. For example, if I am trying to copy several cells, maybe 3 to =

    10 cells from Excel, when I try to highlight them so I can = copy=E2=80=A6or cut, it is almost impossible to highlight them, it is = like they are super sensitive, they just won=E2=80=99t stay highlighted.



    • I am just trying to copy them to the same sheet, same thing in =
    Word or any other program, even is I am trying to highlight something on = the browser.=20



    • I only run Microsoft browsers and office programs=E2=80=A6. =
    Office 2010.



    • I am running the new Windows 10, I had Windows 8.1=20


    =20



    Hope this is enough of an explanation.

    Highlight and copy !

    How to copy only the highlighted sections of a docment?

    • Highlight the sections you want to copy.
    • Press CTRL+C (the CTRL key and the C key, at the same time.)
    • Move the mouse cursor to where you want to paste what you have copied, and click on an empty space.
    • Press CTRL+V (the CTRL key and the V key, at the same time.)
