2. Press Alt+F+T+S. 3. Tab to Backstage. 4. Uncheck. 5. Tab to OK. 6. Exit word. That should solve your backstage problem - did not rememver, went and double checked.

7. You will be able to upgrade again to Windows 10 on that machine
whenever you want to again since you upgraded before the deadline. that's
an option you might want to consider and I believe it has received far too

five years old, acquired before sp1 came out, I have debated, and only debated,
with myself about upgrading it to WinX before time runs out in a few days. With
more programs leaning that way, and paying less attention to old Win7 users, I'm
trying to decide if it might be worth it, or just wait till this machine gets
too old, then buy what is current. If other Win7 users have upgraded, I would
like to hear your experiences so far. Also, if other Win7 users have refused the

Open the Office application in question.
Press ALT + F to open the menu tabs, you will hear “Backstage View”.
Arrow down to “Options”, and press enter. There will be a list to come up with some different categories beginning with “General”.
Tab down through the General tab until you hear “Show the start screen on start up” or something very similar to this, and uncheck this box.
Tab around to the category list again and arrow down to the “Save” category.
Tab through this list until you hear “Show the Backstage View when opening or saving a document” or something very similar to this. Uncheck this box.
Tab down to the OK button and press enter.
After this, the only time you should hear the term “Backstage View” is when you open the menu by pressing ALT + F.

It may point to a general problem with printing and not just to a problem with that one control p command. The command should work. a lot of control plus letter commands have been retained in word after ribbons were introduced. We'll see what happens when you try to print from the menu.

You will have to repeat the following in Excel and Word.
First, open the program. You are at a backstage dialog. Use the escape key to close. Next, use Alt F, now the letter, T Now, use, Shift Tab, three times. You should hear something like show startup screen, check box. Use space bar to uncheck. Tab to the ok button and use space bar to close the options dialog.
Repeat the above in Word or Excel to no longer see the backstage dialog.

Gene, I’m ok with printing now. How about getting rid of back stage view, whatever that is. Jeff

I would suggest that you look at the tutorial I did on ribbons again. That is, I would suggest it if you want to see if you can understand the structure of ribbon programs better. that's up to you, whether you want to do that or just more or less work by rote. I said in the tutorial that every ribbon program has one menu. You can still find print in that menu. You open the menu in ribbon programs with alt f. Open the menu and look down it. You will find print. If you don't, it will be because something I'm not familiar with such as back stage view is interfering with your ability to access the menu. If that is the case, let us know and people can tell you how to deal with that problem.
However, if control p doesn't work, that raises the question of whether you can print from the print item in the menu. It may point to a general problem with printing and not just to a problem with that one control p command. The command should work. a lot of control plus letter commands have been retained in word after ribbons were introduced. We'll see what happens when you try to print from the menu.

Hi Carlos, I sure wish you were still here. It seems so unfair that you can't be with your loved ones and friends especially at this time of the year like so many others, but I know it's not for me to say what is fair and what isn't, and I know if you were still here, you would be the first one to tell me that! Smile! Besides, I'm sure your in a better place. Just so you know you are definitely missed by many I'm sure, and we haven't forgotten you! WE haven't heard anything on the list from Melissa though, and it would be nice to hear from her, just maybe to say hi, and let us know how she is doing now as many of us are concerned about her, and she is the closest one we have to you! My heart goes out to her. I keep her and your family in my Prayers as well as you.
