To deselect non-contiguous cells, hold down the Ctrl key then click on each selected cell. It's easy, right? 😀. The same works if you selected columns or rows. If you need to deselect columns, hold down "Ctrl" and click on the specific column headers (or drag the mouse if they're contiguous).
Step 1: Select the cells you want to deselect. Step 2: Click on the "Home" tab in the Ribbon. Step 3: Click on "Editing" group to reveal the dropdown arrow located under "Clear". Step 4: Click on "Clear" to display another set of options. Choose "Clear Formats" or "Clear Contents" depending on your need.
