Interesting,
I just tried it and it still works on this ol dinosaur.
I always use the back arrow @ the top Left of the screen, as I didn't know about the backspace thing.
Might be a keyboard setting, I know little about those settings other than how to reload a used wiped hard drive.
I never had any skoolin' just self taught or by the 'net.
Don't know what I'm gonna do when they shut off winners xP like they did to my Bag phone and analog TV.
They want to force you to buy new equipment, I'm too old to start over, Hell I ain't got this one all figgered out yet.
