Sub: File Explorer Help Please

[David Russell]

Hello group,

I need help to somehow restore full ability to use File explorer via the tab keys or arrow keys.

Below, I pasted instructions on available options to do this.

If I use the win-key plus e to open file explorer, what do I then do so to choose restor file explorer defaults?

 Is right-click the same as press enter?

I tried the task manager option but couldn't complete the process as stated below.

Thanks, here's the excerpt of instructions.  Thanks!     

 but you can use Win + E to open file explorer, then access Folder Options via the three dots (...) or right-click menu to select Restore Defaults, or use Ctrl + Shift + Esc (Task Manager) to restart the explorer.exe process to clear temporary glitches, or even Registry edits for deep layout resets.

Windows key+E to launch file explorer.

Shift+tab a few times until you land on more options button, and activate it with space bar.

Then arrow down to find options button, and activate it.

There you should land on the page where you can select where file explorer will launch/start - mine is currently set to this PC, and changing pages to the right brings you to the viewing page, where you can change things like whether or not it should display file extensions, etc. etc.

Stay well
