    I think you meant F2? :rolleyes: :-D

    M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

        I installed Windows 11 two weeks ago. For the most part I like it. It's much faster starting up, but are 3 things that bug me (so far) First, the Start Menu. What bright spark came up with this idea?? :confused::confused: Second, somehow the USB device controller Power Management settings got changed. When the PC goes to sleep, the mouse & keyboard stoped responding, so I had to hard boot. :mad::mad::mad: Once I realized what it was it was a simple fix. What REALLY bugs me now is the new File Explorer context menu. The have move some options, like Cut, Copy, & Paste to a sub menu :confused::confused: So now you have to right click, click, then click again!! :mad::mad: But there's a registry fix for that: [https://allthings.how/how-to-get-the-full-old-right-click-context-menu-back-in-windows-11/\](https://allthings.how/how-to-get-the-full-old-right-click-context-menu-back-in-windows-11/) Anyone else have any comments on Win 11?

        If it's not broken, fix it until it is. Everything makes sense in someone's mind. Ya can't fix stupid.

          Weird, sleeping/hibernated computer should be turned on and off via the power button, if USB re-plug not working. Edit : add missing task manager from taskbar right click to the "productivity" list. Hello ctrl+shift+esc, I haven't seen you since W95.

            does CTRL-Ins and SHIFT-ins also still work for copy/paste ? I sure hope so

              Thanks for that! I had assumed it was my new PC that was at fault. I just press the power button briefly to wake it up, not needing a full reboot. But I will follow your hint.

                    Not totally accurate. There are now icons for these functions, so you don't need to go to a sub-menu. :) There is also an icon for "rename"

                    What happened to Ctrl+C, Ctrl+X, and Ctrl+V??? Is it there, and if not, why not? If so, then who cares?

                      That bugs me too - not for Cut, Copy & Paste, but for the 7zip context menu, which I find myself using quite a lot.

                        Regarding the new context menu, MS added a new set of APIs to add items to the context menu (Extending the Context Menu and Share Dialog in Windows 11 - Windows Developer Blog[^]). Software developers have to adapt their code to the new APIs, but it's still possible to add items to the context menu and the old context menu is available as a fallback. Very few application were updated though, so the experience is suboptimal. My pet peeve is how often the new start menu crashes or lags. It's really getting to my nerves and always happens when I'm in a rush. Also: why the hell the Task manager is no longer accessible by right clicking the tray bar?

                          Because when my hand is on the mouse, right click -> context menu is faster than moving my hand to/from the keyboard.

                          Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason? Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful? --Zachris Topelius

                            My initial 30 days of use opinion is simply. No it is not yet "worth" upgrading to from Win10. Sanding down corners, and feeding the insatiable thirst to jigger with the start menu EVERY major update is tiring. While I don't use it alot, the regression to not be able to move the taskbar from its bottom position is a miss for me. Even with the reg hacks its barely usable. That allegedly will be "fixed" though. The context menu change was a bit jarring especially in cases where there are sub menus for things.. But I can at least acknowledge it as an attempt to evolve usability and not be purely change for sake of change. Considering I currently only have 1 PC that actually meets MS requirements to upgrade, I am certainly not tripping overmyself to make the full conversion. It works fine on my surface pro 7 for the workloads I give it. I will stay on Win10 for everything else until 11 falls on my lap or until there is some compelling reason to switch.

                                  Yes, but I very rarely am mouse and right hand on the keyboard either unless i need a 1-2s mouse interruption while typing.

                                  Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason? Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful? --Zachris Topelius

                                    I installed Windows 11 two weeks ago. For the most part I like it. It's much faster starting up, but are 3 things that bug me (so far) First, the Start Menu. What bright spark came up with this idea?? :confused::confused: Second, somehow the USB device controller Power Management settings got changed. When the PC goes to sleep, the mouse & keyboard stoped responding, so I had to hard boot. :mad::mad::mad: Once I realized what it was it was a simple fix. What REALLY bugs me now is the new File Explorer context menu. The have move some options, like Cut, Copy, & Paste to a sub menu :confused::confused: So now you have to right click, click, then click again!! :mad::mad: But there's a registry fix for that: [https://allthings.how/how-to-get-the-full-old-right-click-context-menu-back-in-windows-11/\](https://allthings.how/how-to-get-the-full-old-right-click-context-menu-back-in-windows-11/) Anyone else have any comments on Win 11?

                                    If it's not broken, fix it until it is. Everything makes sense in someone's mind. Ya can't fix stupid.

                                    because the start menu looks way to close to apple crap, I'm holding off until new options are available. If I have too, then I'll buy stardoc and replace the start menu.

                                      Wait, you use the mouse for that? Not Ctrl+C/X/V?

                                      Why not? If you've just selected a number of files with the mouse, you might as well right click and copy with the mouse.

                                        I just keep using Classic Shell (now called Open Shell) as my start menu. Has been working great for me for quite a while now. It's suppose to work on Win 11 too, though I haven't personally tried it yet. I'm going to wait a few years for Windows 11 changes to settle down before I bother installing it.

                                          does CTRL-Ins and SHIFT-ins also still work for copy/paste ? I sure hope so

                                          Ditto, I still use those. Many years of muscle memory...
