I uncombined apps using the free “7+ Taskbar Tweaker” program.

I choose “Don’t Group” and say multiple instances of Firefox (free) or Word or Libre Office Writer (Free) or Notepad text editor (free in Windows C:\Windows) are separate from each other and I can drag them around on the Taskbar where I want them.

Their free “Textify” at the link is a great program to lift text off of dialog boxes. I have my keyboard shortcuts as: hold down the ctrl, shift keys and then click on the text you want with the mouse left button. Up pops up the text you can copy then paste into say Notepad.

For other text say off a image you can use the terrific “Snagit” program.
Capture images, video and text. I use the crosshair style and drag around the text I want after doing: ctrl, shift the T

Otherwise the Print Screen keyboard button as the hot key to capture an image.
You can also choose All-in-one and it gives you a choice of what to choose from.

I can capture video that my free “4K Video Downloader” is unable to like Twitter videos.

Thanks! I missed that one, while see my above post.

" I have my keyboard shortcuts as"

Same here, esp. due to stiff arthritic fingers, using AutoHotKey , which includes remapping the CapsLock ket to copy (ctrl+c) and Esc to paste (ctrl+v) , then NumLock (I do not game) to Esc, and the middle mouse button to Cut. (Cannot easily do this in Linux).

NumLock::Esc

CapsLock::^c

Esc::^v

mbutton::^x

Thank God by the grace we are blessed with such tools. May they be used for God and for good.

Oh dude, Notepad sucks. Notepad++ is MUCH better and also free. In fact, there are many text editors for free and I have yet to ever see one that didn’t beat Notepad.
