Wow! This blew my mind. I have grown very used to using cmd, but have not thought of using the F keys before (do not know why). Behavior seemed strange at first, but after a quick DDG search found this StackOverflow question [0] and that led to this documentation [1]. This is a huge area of functionality which I don't think most people know about. I will be using F7 a lot in the future. As an aside, maintaining backwards compatibility (this is DOS era stuff) is why IMO it would be very hard to update core windows utilities, but maintaining backwards compatibility (and similar decisions) is why IMO Windows is as popular as it is.
