Hello dkrasne,

Thank you for sharing your experience. I had forgotten about my issue. I had simply given up because it didn't work before.

Now when I press ALT + 0151, I get — (em dash). That...

No problem. I appreciate your help.

Stay safe and well.

Correct.

Correct

It might be. I didn't look for it and didn't see...

As I recall, I just need to clear the BIOS password. And, fortunately, you confirmed that jumper in my picture is for the BIOS. That's all I am interested in. The less fussing I have to do,...

Thank you for the follow-up. I plan on following your suggestion tomorrow.

Regarding the location of the jumper, I believe I have located it. I drew a red rectangle around it in my picture in the...

Thank you for providing the official documentation and then summarizing the difference between my initial approach and it. Now, I can easily modify my approach. Thank you.

I am doing some spring cleaning, getting rid of old desktops, laptops, and routers. Regarding the computers, I am wanting to wipe the hard drives with Darik's Boot and Nuke software. When I booted up...

Yes, it is valuable, isn't it. I hope I don't need to use it again, but your advice is sound.

That seems to have done the trick. After running AdwCleaner, I browsed through several Wall Street Journal articles without any issues. Before, I would have been redirected after viewing several...

Hello,

Question

How do I uninstall Microsoft Edge and reinstall it?...

No, I don't even know how to do that.

How would the keyboard know whether I am typing to Excel, Word, UltraEdit, or Dreamweaver?

In other words, if the keyboard consistently works in some applications and consistently fails in others,...

Wynona,

Is there any privacy implication/concern with providing your device ID and product ID?

If there is, please feel free, of course, to delete your image.

Once i receive your reply, I...

It seems like a challenging problem, doesn't it. I know I can rule out a defective keyboard because the keyboard has no clue which app I am using. Aside from that, I am at a loss. I find it puzzling...

Yes, I gathered that I am unique from prior posts where others (including yourself) were able to create em dashes without difficulty while having Office 365.

If possible, I would like to know...

Interestingly, if I copy and paste from that website that Jacee mentioned, the paste works in Excel. I have shown the results in Column Result 2.

Done. Please see graphics below.

Sorry, Jacee, I packed it in for the night and won’t be on my computer tomorrow. I will answer your question on Sunday. I haven’t tried other Alt keystrokes besides the em dash. But I will try others...

I am on the semi-annual channel, but I doubt that makes a difference.

Thank you for checking.

Again, thank you for checking. I have no clue what could have triggered...

To the best of my knowledge, I did the massive Windows update this past Tuesday. And recently, my Office 365 got updated. I get updated every six months on Office 365.

Could something else have...

It's an odd problem. I would expect everything to fail or everything to work. As it is now, I just have to try to enter the codes in an application to find out whether it works in that specific...

— (I don't think that is what you intended.) As I am typing this in, I see a ampersand pound zero one five one semicolon. But once I save the changes, the website interprets that to be an em dash.

I tried getting into Safe Mode, but when I tried, I got many different options. I didn't want to mess around UEFI (spelling?), so I tried another "fix" setting. It left a bunch of txt files in this...

Again, it looks like it just provides a display. So nothing was changed.
