Reboot and keep hitting ESC, F2, F8, F10 or whatever the computer requires… But, there is another way, which I found out trying this for an old ASUS Transformer T100.
According to Asus: Press and hold the F2 button, then click the power button. DO NOT RELEASE the F2 button until the BIOS screen display.
Of course this does not work, why else would I write about it?

Another issue …. suddenly the unified folders view was not showing the e-mails anymore from one of my e-mail accounts. Solution? Delete some files and force Thunderbird to recreate it’s unified folders cache.

Using a new (to me) version of Word 2019 brings new challenges.
I create invoices in Microsoft Word and save them as a PDF file to send by e-mail. In Acrobat it started showing the Word document property for document title, and no longer the filename, like I was used to in Word 2013.
The answer is a simple option… you just have to know where to find it:

Een kilobyte, afgekort kB, is 1000 bytes. Vroeger werd er verschil gemaakt tussen een hoofd- en een kleine letter k:
| k = kilo (103) | 1.000 |
| K = kilo (210) | 1.024 |
In praktijk werkte dit verwarrend en bedoelde men met 1 kB vaak 1024 bytes.
De oude notatie wordt ontraden sinds er een nieuwe standaard is voor binaire voorvoegsels (zie: veelvouden van bytes). Deze standaard wordt echter nog niet veel toegepast.
Let op: het is nog steeds van belang voor de B een hoofdletter te gebruiken: een kleine letter b staat namelijk voor bit en niet voor byte.
1024 B heet nu een kibibyte, afgekort KiB. 1000 kB heet een megabyte, 1024 KiB heet een mebibyte.
In een tabel:
| symbool | naam | waarde | symbool | naam | waarde | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| kB | kilobyte | 10001 = 103 | KiB | kibibyte | 10241 =210 | 2,4% |
| MB | megabyte | 10002 = 106 | MiB | mebibyte | 10242 =220 | 4,9% |
| GB | gigabyte | 10003 = 109 | GiB | gibibyte | 10243 =230 | 7,4% |
| TB | terabyte | 10004 = 1012 | TiB | tebibyte | 10244 =240 | 10,0% |
| PB | petabyte | 10005 = 1015 | PiB | pebibyte | 10245 =250 | 12,6% |
| EB | exabyte | 10006 = 1018 | EiB | exbibyte | 10246 =260 | 15,3% |
| ZB | zettabyte | 10007 = 1021 | ZiB | zebibyte | 10247 =270 | 18,1% |
| YB | yottabyte | 10008 = 1024 | YiB | yobibyte | 10248 =280 | 20,9% |

You can tell when the “used range” excel is using is too big and is going to add extra blank rows when you use the scroll bar to the right and it goes beyond the last row of actual data when you scroll to the bottom. Terrible when trying to print your data. I’ve found something, and corrected the procedure, so it consistently works to delete those blank rows.
Do this to get rid of them:
