    Solved Alt + X shortcut not allowing me to choose letter option

    Me too. Thanks for all of your help. Maybe, it's a keyboard option/setting that coincides w/the Win-X option.

    Microsoft to kill the Messenger on March 15

    Thanks Terry! I was referring to the IM+ you can get from the Windows store. I was thinking of downloading that, but don't know if I want to "muck" up the waters. The bulk of people I IM are on FB and don't need to get more bogged down w/other IMs...I was just wondering about that program from...

    Does anyone user IM+ and do you recommend that or just use the Skype we're all talking about here?

    Solved Alt + X shortcut not allowing me to choose letter option

    Here's what I found to work - Win-X to bring up the underlined letter options and Win-(letter of underlined shortcut) to actually bring up the desired result. This seems to be fine. Is that what we would expect or should we still expect just typing the letter? I'm fine w/the result I mentioned...

    Solved Alt + X shortcut not allowing me to choose letter option

    I tried this on a couple of different folders and files - there are no underlined letters, so this would not allow me to choose the option unless I clicked on it. I would expect that behavior, no?

    Solved Alt + X shortcut not allowing me to choose letter option

    Thank Medab1 and Brink! Brink - my only restore date I show is 1.21, but the issue happened before that, so that won't do much good sad to say. I'll see about calling that # too.

    The system restore I have not done yet Brink. Is that what we feel is the next/best option?

    Solved Alt + X shortcut not allowing me to choose letter option

    Here's what I found out - Win-X brings up the list of shortcuts and I CAN use the arrow to highlight the various options and then either hit enter or use the mouse to select it. I still CANNOT use the letter. Hovering my mouse in the lower left, R click to bring up the same options w/out the...

    Solved Alt + X shortcut not allowing me to choose letter option

    If I do Win-X, yes, they are still underlined. If I just hover my mouse in the lower left corner, right click then no they are not. What next?

    Solved Alt + X shortcut not allowing me to choose letter option

    Brink - the option 2 did not change this issue. JohnofE - I do not hold alt down when pressing the letter for the shortcut. There must be an option to fix this. It had worked before. Odd the shortcut letters do not work at all.

    Solved Alt + X shortcut not allowing me to choose letter option

    I may be the dumb one here - I hope to clear this up. I meant that when I hit Win-X, it brings up the list of underlined letters you can choose to bring up a choice such as Run, Command Prompt, etc. If you want to search for example, you will click S for search and it used to come up w/JUST...
