They are making some assumptions about what OS and what version of it they're using. Here's my answers:
1. How do I fix my send to option to include sending my documents directly to the printer?
You don't.

You're lazy, just go to "My Computer" and click the damn icon!
7. Someone has disabled my recycle bin confirmation, so when I delete it doesn?t ask me for a confirmation. How do I fix this?
Quit deleting files
8. My mouse quit working ? how can I still use the keyboard to open the start menu? (I don?t have the key with the windows logo on it.)
You use the touchpad on your laptop

Get your head checked, they'll take care of the second comment and the last one won't be a problem and you'll find the first one is a good thing
10. I have a file called Your file and I know I typed it up but I cannot find it. What happened to it? I have already checked documents and it isn?t in there.
You named it something stupid so the computer deleted it.
11. I want to make my own menu command in the menu bar. How do I do this? Like ?your name? with my common options so I can get rid of the toolbars and just use mine.
You hack the programs and add one in using a hex editor
