| 1479876 | 2021-08-20 01:12:00 | I want to type the square root symbol, Google search says ALT + 251 but it doesn't work in my Win10 PCs Any suggestions? |

| 1479877 | 2021-08-20 01:45:00 | I think you use the numeric keypad. But I didn't get a square root symbol. 251 = ¹ 0251 = û I normally google for it: and past it in: √ |

| 1479880 | 2021-08-20 03:18:00 | you can run the character map app and cut and paste, been in windows forever but it takes a bit of searching, this symbol is called square root and hovering over it shows U+221A whatever that means √√√√√√√√√√√√√√ it's about 4 clicks up from the bottom in the scroll bar edit: just figured out if you tick advanced view there's a search box you can search for square root and find it that way |
