Pressing the middle mouse button (or scrollwheel) in many apps allows the user to scroll in the display area by moving the mouse without holding any button.
What is this mode called? What is the name of the icon which appears in the application to indicate this mode is active?

This seems to be referred to as "auto scroll" by various sources. I suspect it is an application level feature as the icons for the 3 major browsers are all different (on Windows 7).

The white screen covers 100% of the Windows application, including the top bar.
The buttons are still there, but covered by a full white screen, on app launch.
Environment:
Windows 10 (fully updated)
Chrome Version 96.0.4664.55 (Official Build) (x86_64)
There are many useless tricks, so I used my precious time to debug this myself.
All you need to do is:
launch the browser in compatibility mode for Win Vista
navigate in browser to chrome://flags/

The setting "Activate Window by hovering over it with the mouse" is convenient but sometimes annoying so I would like to disable it through keyboard whenever I want. However, I cannot find any solution to do that.
Does anyone know how can I do that? Using an application is fine too as long as it does the job, thank you very much.
I'm not sure there is shortcut for "Activate Window by hovering over it with the mouse".
You said external app is also ok how about X-Mouse Controls

In windows 10 home I want to use 2 monitors with 1 or 2 desktops.
As when we use extent 1 monitor has the desktop icons and the other has only the taskbar and we can only drag the things to that screen.
Is that possible that I can give the whole access to both of the monitors?
Quick Answer - No.
You cannot (as of right now) run two virtual desktops on two screens.
But, with a quick Google search I have found some 3rd party solutions that can virtualize this feature.
Other than that - you can Right click on the Taskbar and enter to Taskbar Settings - there you can find a few other Settings (for both the taskbar and the icons) that might help you achieve something close to you original request.

My laptop's screen stopped working suddenly. I connected another display to the laptop using HDMI. How can I mirror/duplicate to extended display with keyboard shortcut only, as current screen is not working. Then I can look into the issues.
OS: windows 10
Thanks.
Hold Windows key, P to show dialog of mode selection, then P again to switch mode and release Windows key. This way you'll cycle modes, eventyally getting to projector mode.

Every post I've seen says to open a finder, click view > Show View Options, and there is a background section to change the color of thew background. But when I go into show view options all it has is arrange by:, sort by: and text size.
Did the background option get moved? If not what can I do to make it show?
The background option only appears in Show View Options when you set View > icons.
