I've been ruined

I just now, finished up some work on my big Win7 desktop and had been perusing this forum from that location in my office.

when I got through with Firefox, my fingers just toggled Control-Q and Firefox totally ignored me


what has this world come too?

Your next shock will be trying to open a terminal.

Under Windows the terminal window is called "Command Prompt".

Start button>runbox> dxdiag

closest you get to inxi commands

Under Windows the terminal window is called "Command Prompt".

Or PowerShell. I just installed Mint 18.1 MATE as dual-boot with Windows 10 on a Dell 990 refurb (Core i7, 8GB RAM, 2TB HDD), so I tried to check my C:\ properties to see if it was GPT or MBR. (BIOS said UEFI was disabled, but this is my first Win10 machine.) Right-click on C:\ showed nothing useful, so I had to use a terminal command to find out--but stared at the Start Menu items for half a minute wondering where Command Prompt went!

I've enjoyed all the replies

WindowsKey-R then type ' CMD ' was my friend for many years in the Windows OS


just last night, my daughter asked me to fix her new Win10 Numlock to "always ON"

so, I had to do this:

Press Win + R and type in Regedit.
Navigate to registry key HKEY_USERS\Default\Control Panel\Keyboard.
Right-click on the “InitialKeyboardIndicators”, select Modify and change Value data to 2.
Exit Registry.

The ever-powerful and dreaded registry. I know it well.

Haven't touched the registry in, now let me think about it.......2 days! That's how long since I ditched Windows for (hopefully) the last time.
