Screen Orientation Troubleshooting

Ever hit the wrong sequence of keys on your keyboard and everything on your screen has turned sideways – or even upside down? On some computers, the Ctrl-Alt-Direction keys will change your screen orientation.

To fix the issue: press Ctrl-Alt-Up

If you’d like to change the screen orientation, and you have a Tablet PC, here are the shortcut keys:

  • Ctrl-Alt-Up - right side up
  • Ctrl-Alt-Right - 90 degrees
  • Ctrl-Alt-Down - 180 degrees
  • Ctrl-Alt-Left - 270 degrees
