Can't scroll using arrows on excel

Usually, I use my arrow keys to navigate through my excel but lately, they (arrow keys) haven't been really helpful. Like at all!

The issue was I had the scroll lock "on". But I am on Windows 10 and I can't see the scroll lock function key anywhere :O

Here is how you can turn off the scroll key on Windows 10:

Press the Windows key.
Type onscreen keyboard and press Enter.
When the onscreen keyboard appears, your ScrLk (Or scroll lock button) will be highlighted which means it was turned on. Click the ScrLk button to turn it off.
Go back to your excel and you should now be able to use your excel.

Hope this helps!

wget error–“zsh: parse error near &”

There is no doubt that I prefer wget way over any other type of downloads… Syntax: wget <DOWNLOAD_URL> If you get this error “ zsh: parse error near & ” then its probably because your download URL has a “&” so you should try giving your DOWNLOAD_URL in double quotes wget “<DOWNLOAD_URL>” If you are trying to download from a site which needs you to give your credentials then you can try giving it this way wget --http-user=<UserName> --http-password=<Password> “<DOWNLOAD_URL>” Hope this helps

Resetting all the keyring passwords: Navigate to Places > Home . Press ctrl h t o view "hidden files". Navigate to .gnome2 > keyrings and delete login.keyring Using the same keyring (resetting keyring password but keeping old passwords in keyring): 1) Make a backup of the keyring cd ~/.local/share/keyrings/ cp login.keyring login.keyring.backup and after that delete login.keyring file rm ~/.local/share/keyrings/login.keyring 2) Create a new keyring file from Gnome Keyring with the name "login" 3) Replace the new keyring file with the backup of the old keyring file cd ~/.local/share/keyrings/ mv login.keyring.backup login.keyring Note: before Ubuntu 12.10 the path to the keyrings folder was ~/.gnome2/keyrings/ instead of ~/.local/share/keyrings/
