Copying data from one table to cell to another in Word 365

We used Word 2013 up until yesterday. Now we’ve been “upgraded” to Word 365. Up until yesterday, I had many documents with columns of figures that have tabs in the cells. Copying the data, including the tabs, was as simple as selecting the cell and copying, then moving to another cell and pasting. With Word … Read more

Duplicate the CURRENT STATE of a tab in Firefox or Chrome?

In both Firefox and Chrome, you can duplicate tabs by right-clicking the tab and choosing “Duplicate Tab”. (In Firefox, you can also Ctrl+drag the tab.) However, when a tab is duplicated in this way, it seems that what the browser does is simply open a new tab with the same URL and then reload the … Read more

How can I change Chrome tab close behaviour back to switching to the next tab?

Google has recently changed Chrome’s behaviour so that when you close a tab it switches to what I assume is meant to be the most recently viewed tab (although the logic doesn’t appear always to be consistent).

Unfortunately, I didn’t realize this until way too long after they were closed, and now I can’t reopen those windows. Some of them have been open for a long time, so … Read more

Paint.NET freezes on new tab, but isn’t consuming many resources

I have Paint.NET open with many tabs of reference material so I can create some new art. None are extraordinarily large images, but there are a couple dozen tabs. It freezes whenever I open a new tab. However, it’s only using ~500MB of RAM (32GB total in the machine, only ~50% of which is being … Read more

Chrome switch n tabs right/left

I navigate between tabs using shortcuts to switch to the right/left tab (ctrl-(shift)-tab). It can take a lot of strokes if the target tab is quite far. Any shortcut/extension/script to skip n tabs when switching? Or any other concepts of tabs switching? Maybe switching to the middle/quoter tab? Search tabs by name isn’t a good … Read more
