Screen rotation

Excel Advanced course

Hi, not a specific excel question but I have pressed a button by mistake on my PC and my screen view has rotated 90 degrees. Can you please give me a clue as to how I can rotate the screen back to where it should be. I have tried in properties/settings/advanced but nothing there which shows rotation. I do not have a control centre on my PC.

thanks
Stuart

Hi Stuart

Not entirely sure if we can answer this, as it does not relate to an application that we support. Its the first time I have heard of a screen rotating 90 degrees on a button push.

Regards

Richard

Hi there,

You probably went to press ctrl+alt+delete and you must have pressed one of the arrow keys. To return your screen to normal, press ctrl+alt+(up arrow).

That should fix it. Hope that helps.
