Well, it was too cold this winter to play out Detector & now it's too hot so thought we might use some tips on using the computer that we use every day that others don't know about. My wife worked the computer every day [B-4 retiring] & showed some of these tips to me & I found some on the Internet.. These tips below are to let people what <are> so you will probably have to read the Internet to learn how using then, etc I'm not a teacher LOL
I hope some guys add some Tips.
Print 2 Seconds = 2¢
ascII [ask-ee] are numbers that means 155 = ¢ and E = 69 etc
click <Num Lock> to numbers & hold <ALT> & 155 & you will have ¢
Everything File Searcher
http://www.voidtools.com/
put CrossCut to bottom tool bar
good SetUp after started: run Everythiing then <View><Sort By> click<Date Modified> usually find new file so...
USE: click <Search> & click <EveryThing> or <Picture> or Video or Folder or ?
SendTo [<rite mouse> a file then <Send To><Folder> (can copy & or move file another folder)
download program from internet: sendtotoys.exe mine shows exe property files = 3/15/2018 2.396 kb
now can use Copy / Paste pretty easier
using Copy / Paste [rite click mouse to a file, to see a menu or Keys <Ctrl>down then <V> or <Ctrl>down then <P> or <Ctrl>down then <C> <Ctrl>down then <X>
<Ctrl>down then <A> Hilites the whole page [and <Copy> / <Paste>on another document
<Find> Word on Page of computer
<Ctrl>down then <F>
works on about any page in Word, WordPad, etc, including page while in Internet [in Forum, <Ctrl><F> and the find(s) is Underlined]
Download [copy Internet Page you are reading into your computer
If you find something on the Internet and want to copy the document to the computer [ like found something interesting on this Forum ] Click <File> at the top of monitor then <Print> and window will list Printer's - select ".PDF" Writer. Windows 10 will automatic show "Printer" for PDF [like a fake printer], This will copy it to a PDF file and will ask for where and name, etc on your computer (want to change fake printer properties to LandScape & longest width [my paper = 13"] cause sometimes it truncates some long lines when printered on the computer)
Windows 8 won't have Fake PDF Printer like Win 10 does but look for "CutePDFWriter" on the Internet and download it to use that
Monitor Tool Bar (down on bottom screen)
Mite add "Created CrossCuts" like "Everything" "Calculater" "DeskTop" " WordPad" "NotePad" (use my memory notes, LOL)
go to "File Explorer", Hilite "" rite click and "Create CrossCuts" to DeskTop then drag the CrossCut down to Tool Bar - get it...
[use <Everything> to find File Explorer.exe to create crosscut]
toggle to desktop
search Google to find out to to that [ maybe called "toggledesktop.vbs" ] and add this to lower tool bar
I hope some guys add some Tips.
