    Hi,

    Right Click blank area of Desktop - Graphics Options - Rotation

    CTRL + ALT + Arrow key also rotates it.

    Ctrl + Alt +Arrow (up), Ctrl + Alt + Arrow (down), Ctrl + Alt + Arrow (left), and also Ctrl + Alt + Arrow (right)

    Hope this helps.

    I found this answer was much easier (especially when reading sideways

    LOL  I had to laugh, since I was reading with my head tilted as well!  It worked and I am grateful!!
