You get the % symbol by pressing shift and the 5 key on the number row. However a tip when running complex commands from the run dialogue box is to copy the command from the email and paste it . This eliminates the risk of mistyping the string. Simply select the command in the email by holding the shift key and cursoring over the command string. Then either press control c to copy or press the application key and select copy. Now go to run dialogue as described and either press control v to paste in the command or press application key and select paste. Press enter after pasting the results and you should be away.

Good evening Mike and Barbara. Please pardon my asking, what is probably quite obvious, but where is the percent key located in order for me to follow the instructions for reinstalling outlook express 6. I've been having a problem with outlookexpress 6 for sometime now, and will attempt too follow your instructions which you posted too the other list member. Thanks for sharing them with us. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mike & Barbara" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, August 31, 2009 3:24 PM Subject: Re: [Blind-Computing] friends,how do you uninstall and reinstall windows without formatting? > Hi Randy, > > Below are 2 different ways of repairing Outlook express.
