    Dropped short cut

    Once again I find myself looking for a long used short cut. Apparently Windows 10 and Bing do not like Yahoo. I downloaded 10 and was comfortable navigating around. The next day, I logged on and Yahoo was among the missing. Easy to go to Windows Edge
    and then to Yahoo, but the program will not right click to a drop down and choices of creating a short cut on the desk top. I tried Mr. Smithers fix to get Google Earth back, but yahoo is not listed in the "Apps' section. Any suggestions. Thank you in advance.

    Keyboard stopped typing letters

    Hi -

    I currently have windows 10 and was typing and entering items for work when something happened and it now won't type letters. For example I was in quickbooks and entering names and if I typed the letter "M" it would kick me out of qb and take me back to
    the icon page. If I type in other letters it would take me somewhere or open up a window. I think it is called "short-cut" but I need to be able to type again. Any suggestions on what happened an how to fit the issue? Thanks

    Hi,

    Tap each Ctrl, Alt and Shift key briskly a few times. If that doesn't resolve the issue, restart the computer.
