PROBLEM

A little tidbit of Windows knowledge.  When highlighting a section of a Microsoft Word document and pressing the delete key, nothing happens.  No errors or messages at all.  Try this to fix it…

SOLUTION

Here’s the workaround to this issue:

• Go to Tools -> Options-> General Tab
• Uncheck the following options if selected (See Image Below):
  • Help for WordPerfect users
  • Navigation keys for WordPerfect users

 

• Click OK and try to delete again.
• If above doesn’t work, try unchecking Typing Replaces Selection instead from Tools -> Options -> Edit Tab

Cheers!
