How To Enable Shortcut Underlines In Windows 10

Windows 10 by default has shortcut underlines set as off. What this means is that there are no underlines that can highlight a specific letter which along with the Alt key can be a keyboard shortcut. For example : the underline below letter F in an application would mean that Alt+F is a shortcut key and so on.

This feature can be turned on though if needed. Here is how :

Access All settings from Action Center.
