Sounds like you have a keyboard with a Windows layout. My guess is that your mystery key is the Fn-key. Not sure if it will function as an Fn-key when used on a Mac, but I'm sure you will be able to figure it out eventually. - Brad - On Feb 18, 2021, at 17:20, Lorie McCloud wrote: I ordered

Hi, That is correct. The Finder cannot be closed, nor does it need to be. Things like Spotlight are usually services, not apps, thus when you close it, the Finder is still considered the running application, but focus is not within the correct window. The cmd-tab I mentioned will bring focus
