I don’t like Windows 10. One thing I really hate is I can’t backtrack more than one page at a time. With Windows 7 I could right click on the back arrow and select which page to go back to. Now, when I right click, all I get is a box that says “Back”. Very frustrating when I want to back up five pages.

[[Back”. Very frustrating when I want to back up five pages.]]

download and install ‘strokeit’ (Yeah bad name- great app though) which is a mouse gesture program

I have it set up to go back through pages with just a really quick mouse gesture ‘drag mouse left’ and can go back though 20 pages in about 2 seconds and I don’t have to move mouse up to back button- I close pages by ‘drag down/right’ minimize etc open new pages, open thigns like calculator simply by drawing a ‘C’ with the mouse- no more menu searching- etc

Very handy utility, but a little hard to configure- There are other easier mouse gesture programs out there though- but if you’re good at figuring out programs- then strokeit is great-
