Subject: [access-uk] Tip: enable file delete confirmation in windows 10

Hello Everyone.


Recently, we have had issues with clients where people are pressing delete on 
files and icons accidentally. In windows7 and earlier, windows would prompt you 
if you wanted to delete a file. However in windows 8 and 10, people are no 
longer prompted for a confirmation. This has been very annoying especially for 
visually impaired users, as you have no way of knowing where or if a file or 
desktop icon has gone until you go looking for it. Here's the solution.


1. Go to your desktop with windows D.

2. Find the recycle bin icon and press alt enter on it to go in to properties.

3. Tab to the last checkbox on the page that says display delete confirmation 
and tick it. Tab to OK and press enter.

Restart your computer and the old behaviour should return.


Thanks for reading,


Mo.
