The only thing about shift+delete is to not get too comfortable using it. I accidentally deleted some essential folders this way when I was manually cleaning files from my hard drive because shift+delete became second nature for me, I just did it without thought and ignored the warning prompt.
true - it happens. I only do it when I need to urgently delete files while copying large files and am running out of space quickly...These video files for the channel are massive and we are forever moving them around
That's why I just always press DEL to move to recycle bin and that way if i DO delete the wrong thing, I can recover it from recycle bin, and if it was the right thing that I deleted, I can easily empty the recycle bin. I used to use Shift+DEL and one day I accidentally deleted very important files, and from that day on I never used it again.
I use to try setting the recycle bin to delete anything sent to it but I found I often delete things by accident (especially when rename and create shortcut are right next to it).
Very cool stuff Liron! Always good to learn new tricks. Been almost 30 years since my boss forced me to get certified in Windows NT 4.0. HAHA. "But boss, I'm a Unix Engineer"...."Not today you aren't".
Hi. I thanks a lot for your videos, but, at the same time, thank you very much for your clear english. I am from Argentina and I can understand every single Word. You have not idea how important is that!
Thanks for those. 👍 I don't use Windows all that much, but when I do, some of those will be useful. After watching that, I messed about a bit. I just loaded up MS Word and discovered that *ALT + SHIFT + L-ARROW / R-ARROW* will change a line's formatting into the various heading styles. *ALT + TAB* is a nice way to see the open apps, scroll through them and choose the one you want. The permanently delete file thing can also be done by selecting a file and *SHIFT + DEL* no right clicking, but it is great that *SHIFT + Right click* brings up a more complete menu to access other features/options. Thank again.
Absolutely want to see video on the Command Prompt. Your knowledge is needed. Did you know you can right click on the Windows Logo for the start menu and you can get to setting, the command prompt task manager and more options without having to search for them.
Another trick for the scroll wheel is to hover over your sound taskbar icon, and scroll to raise or lower your volume. The middle click used to open new app windows also works on your browser's links. Middle-clicking a tab in your browser, however, closes that tab.
Some great tips there. The curser resizing one I needed. Upped it from one too two. My eyes aren't that bad, but going upto two made seeing it that much easier.
Hey nice video!! Here is another mouse trick. If you drag a folder or executable or whatever with your RIGHT mouse button, it will automatically create a shortcut of it when you release the button, so let it go wherever you need a shortcut of something
Thanks for the scroll wheel, cmd prompt, and snap function info. And in the interest of sharing neat things, I learned this from thiojoe: when in notepad, pressing F5 gives you the current date and time. I use it every day. I had heard of the snap stuff but hadn't used it, but the first 2 I list, completely new to me as was the F5. Mind you, I learned computer programming with punch cards, so yeah, even us old timers can still learn new things (and so far I can still see the mouse, so no size change for now, but who knows). Again, thank you for your videos.
Appreciate you. Windows is still the number one operating system and Linux is getting better. We would just love to have more drivers and more "Bottles" or "Wine" that helps make apps we can't replace work over there...it will come one day...I hope
I knew about the mouse , I made mine bigger a long time ago. What I didn't know about was the text size. And other things in this one. Thank you for your video's !
Great video, thanks. Yes, I knew most of these, but the realisation of a transparent command prompt blew my mind :) Showing my age, but I started off with dos 6.22/win 3.1 (well, if I'm being honest, I started with DOS 3.0). It was fun tweaking the daylights out of config.sys and autoexec.bat to free up not KB but bytes, creating multiboot menus, etc. I'm currently looking at the usage of the generated desktop.ini files. What I want to do is create a standard desktop.ini that you could copy/paste over the system created desktop.ini, restricting any system changes, however desktop.ini files seem to be created with links elsewhere.
ahhh the good ol DOS days where if you could write a batch file with beep 10 you were a legend and when we call them directories not folders🤣 Fun Fact: my first Network product was Novell 2.1 way before any GUI interface and had to load and unload NLMs.
I would love a command prompt video but even better a PowerShell video, I've been REALLY getting into PowerShell and both the PowerShell terminal and the ps1 language are very powerful and great to know, I'd love to see that as well!
I have questions about networking, especially how a router works and how it connects devices on a local network to the internet, if you haven’t done a video on that, yet
Question for you Liron. I use multiple screens and each one has the taskbar. Is there a way to tell windows to open an app in the same window that I clicked the icon in the taskbar of?
I only have one Nit Pick. Instead of right clicking then holding down shift and clicking delete. You can just click the item , press shift and delete on your keyboard. And skip having to right click on it.
not a nit pick - just easier to show it on the screen. Some people like keyboards more, while others like the mouse more. Choose the option that works for you.
I did not know the ALT mouse click. I also change (I am also older) to black/white to change color over light text. I also got a Logitech M720 mouse (non-gaming no RGB :( ) with a wheel unlock for super-fast scrolling and all the extra buttons for multimedia.
Cool stuff I didn't know, thanks. I manipulated my mouse pointer to a larger size and it's blue now as well lol. Thanks again, your channel is much appreciated.
I forget the name of the program. However, there is one in the Command Prompt you can use to get Windows to check for and if you want, also auto download and install updates for installed software. This can even work for non-Microsoft programs. Edit: I looked it up, it's WinGet. I think it only works on newer versions on Windows 10 and on Windows 11 but it's very useful.
that's dangerous in my opinion as most of the time you want things to go in there and then decide later if you want to permanently remove them. But each to their own I guess.
Please can you make a video about mouse for very large hands. struggling to find anywhere. could be nice guide for many people with large hands. thank you
Great video could u help me with my McAfee would not open so I Uninstaller it and when I try to reinstall it in runs in to an error it won't reinstall.
Liron, do you have recommendations about how to keep my info off the dark web, or how best to get it removed, if possible? I would appreciate a short tutorial, if you have time...
Try opening up File Explorer once, then press the middle button while holding the pointer over the icon and s l o w l y clicking it a few times. It may not work straight away, but it's worth trying it a few times until it works.
@TheDarkCovenant Last year I ran into this issue where the keyboard latency made OneNote unusable. It turns out the problem was caused by a Control Panel setting for Ease of Access. Specifically, I disabled the Text Cursor Indicator option and it immediately resolved the sluggish typing issue in OneNote. Go figure. Edit: In Win11, it looks like this option is now found in Settings (not cpanel). Look for "Text cursor indicator" in the Accessibility section and toggle it off.
I need help my windows 11 acting strangely when typing some letters it jumps to the left and same with mouse when dragging an open file or program goes to left byself
@@LironSegev thanks, I saw your tips on the different things you could do in the command prompt but your thumbnail shows C:/> and it looks like a green mouse is attached to it, implying there was some trick involving the mouse that didn’t involve a folder in the command prompt. Apparently it was bad graphic art combined with a typo.
Yes, love the command prompt; more please.
on it!
@@LironSegev I found and bookmarked a page that has a comprehensive list of cmd commands. I'd post it, but these links tend to get removed.

Thank you very much!!!
fantastic!
Absolutely want to see video on the Command Prompt. Your knowledge is needed. Did you know you can right click on the Windows Logo for the start menu and you can get to setting, the command prompt task manager and more options without having to search for them.
My favorite is the “Taskbar Toolbar(s)”. I work off my Taskbar, and that includes accessing folders, files, scripts, etc. easily.
Thank you for these tips… the delivery and timing is perfect… keep it short and sweet. Bite size tips. 😂 More CMD tips please.
You got it!
3:55 you can also do this by holding CTRL + SHIFT and using the scroll wheel
Did not know of a few of these! These are great tips. Thank you. Would love to see more.
Awesome! Thank you!
Thank you Liron for the tips. There was a few little handy tips that was useful. 👍

7:24 instead of right click, shorter is ctrl+shift+delete on a keyboard and then ENTER on a keyboard.
so instead of 2 clicks, its shorter to press 3 keys and then another key? eh...ok
@@LironSegev It kinda is to me bcz I am faster on a keyboard. I am used to use less mouse 🤔
@@zona8224 fair enough
Some great tips there. The curser resizing one I needed. Upped it from one too two. My eyes aren't that bad, but going upto two made seeing it that much easier.
Good stuff!
@LironSegev . Interesting thing I also found by doing this, is that in games, the pointer in the menus is also bigger.
Nice one, some of those will come in handy. Thanks Liron.

On deleting a file you can also hit the delete key while holding down the shift key...
I thought you might mention that most scrollwheel mice support back and forward browser navigation.

actually, all you need to do to delete files is select it, then shift+del. no need to right click
yes - but showing it on a screen is just easier visually
Best tip I was ever given was " Dump Windows altogether" The less of my money going into Bill the snoop's pocket, the better.
Was waiting for this. They never fail to 🤮
@@LironSegev And I was waiting for your reply.😆
@JFSmith-nb8hf why can't we all just live in peace? 😆
The last thing that you mentioned, i right click on recycle bin and auto set it to permanently delete.
that's dangerous in my opinion as most of the time you want things to go in there and then decide later if you want to permanently remove them. But each to their own I guess.
I do that cause i only delete, when i know definitely i don't want whatever it is i'm deleting.
