What is the alternative for Insert key?
Ins is short for Insert, which means you can use the zero key on the Numpad as the alternative to the Insert key. And you just need to turn off the Num Lock. Then you can press the zero key and it should function as the Insert key.
What is the difference between insert mode and overtype mode?
When the Update Processor is first entered, it is in overtype mode. This means any characters typed overwrite the characters on the screen. Insert mode is used to insert new text just in front of the text beginning at the cursor.
