    How to paste shortcut to file by keystroke or command?


    Hi!

    I have new mouse with more buttons.
    In mode 1 I added to two buttons functions Copy and Paste.
    I want to use else one button to Paste shortcut to file.
    This function is in Explorer and I don't know keystroke, if any has...

    Is it possible to do by command or any keystroke?

    Thank you for all.
    Miro

    :)

  2. My displays changed to Grayscale.

    How do I change it back to colour? There is probably a Keystroke shortcut??

  3. Keyboard Shortcut "CTL-V" does not work in Windows 10 File Explorer

    Help!!!

    I have installed Windows 10 on both my Laptop and Desktop machines. On both machines I am not able to use the keyboard shortcut "CTL-V" to paste files in the File Explorer app. The copy, CTL-C, works OK.

    Of course, I can "right-click" the destination folder and select the "Paste" option. However, it would be nice to be able to use CTL-V option to save a keystroke.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    How to paste shortcut to file by keystroke or command?

    If I have got your problem accurately, an easy way is to hold down the mouse button while dragging to select come text, then do Ctrl + C (to copy to the clipboard). Then move the pointer somewhere else (like in another document) and do Ctrl + V.

    But it is a mystery why your a new mouse is the only one giving trouble. I suggest a call to the manufacturer.

    Hi!
    Problem is not mouse and in mapping,
    I created buttons like actions for each button. I map them in AutoHotKey script.
    I can by AHK script call external command, batch or send keystroke...
    I need this for script, here's example for copy by Alt+F1:
    Code: !F1:: Send, ^{c 1} return[/quote] this piece of code simulates Ctrl+C by pressing Alt+F1.

    So, if exist any keystroke, command or any method how to:
    1. copy file to clipboard
    2. paste shortcut to file into any wished place
    ----
    I know that is possible to drag file out of window to other and holding left Alt then drop it - this creates shortcut to file instead copy...
    But this again needs work with mouse and also with keyboard.
    I saw in Windows Explorer "Paste link" or "Paste shortcut" (exact translate from Slovak don't know) first in Windows 8 and now in Windows 10 it can be pretty comfortable using mouse for all copy paste actions...
