Undo the last thing you did
Put ten minutes of work back after one wrong key press.
Undo puts things back the way they were a moment ago. Press it again and it goes back another step.
It works in nearly everything you can type in, so a mistake is rarely permanent.
Key points
- Undo puts things back as they were a moment ago
- Pressing it repeatedly walks further back, step by step
What to remember
- Undo lives in the Edit menu of every program with menus.
- Undo walks backwards one step at a time.
Try this
Open anything you can type in, write a line, then find Undo in the Edit menu and press it.
