Comment on Windows copying Mac feature, but only in certain apps
DomeGuy@lemmy.world 3 weeks agoI wonder if this is a holdover from when you could navigate windows completely without a mouse using only the keyboard and shortcuts.
You can absolutely still do that now. At worst, you install power toys and use the accessibility option to move the mouse with arrow keys.

There have been versions of windows where this wasn’t completely possible out of the box (looking at you windows ME). I was referring to when it was a native windows feature, no extra software of any kind involved. And you didn’t have to program hotkeys or anything.

Not to question anybody shitting on windows ME, but keyboard-only navigation is a core windows feature, since it’s a consequence of accessibility
No extra software needed; installing the power toys just makes it easier and a little more discoverable.
