Hmm. Strange. I would make sure your resolution and window mode is set correctly and see if that helps your issue.

It's something the game teaches you in the tutorial. You don't get anything for level 0, and you need to process at least to the first level. It's difficult to recommend what to start with, because everyone prefers starting in their own way, but I definitely recommend the stuff that'll help conserve money first, then use the money on upgrades when you can.
Never send in signals that are level 0. You don't actually get points for them. Your priority off the bat should get your processing to level 1. It should be the upgrade at the bottom. Then you can start making money off of the drives you send out. There are 3 levels to process with, but until you get stuff that increases the speed in which processing works, you shouldn't go above 1 until you're comfortable with it. It takes a while to process, depending on the size of the drive, but you will get paid more for higher levels, so you should max the processing when you can.
One step at a time. Don't feel rushed, because the story is actually pretty long. Even if you aren't as efficient as you want to be, you'll get to where you want to be eventually. Kerfur will definitely help, but it's not exactly going to save you money without having a Solar ATV, because you'll still need to buy fuel for your daily tasks if you're low. It'll help you save fuel, however, so you'd still be using less money. Generally, I like to focus QoL stuff before signal efficiency, as the less money I spend on other things, the more I'll have to spend on signal upgrades later.
Well, if it helps, try to invest in things that speed things up, and don't forget modules. Especially stuff that helps your job. As an example, I recommend getting the Storm Filter and ATV Solar Power ASAP, as the Storm Filter helps leave your stuff processing during a storm, and you won't need to maintain it, and the Solar Power will allow you to get around with your ATV without needing to spend points on fuel.
Once you have those things, I would recommend stuff that will speed up your work, like processing and download speed. Eventually, you'll get to a point where you'll have your daily task done and the day won't even be close to over, and you can keep sending stuff out for points, and your weekly reviews will give you even more points at the end of the week.
If you ever have any more questions, or you're looking for more tips, I'm always happy to help out, and if that's not enough, I have a whole thread on the forums that's full of tips and tricks that you can check out.
If you're talking about the 0.7.0 update, it is available. I am unsure why, but it is not able to grab via browser, as the file doesn't exist there for some reason. If you use the app version of Itch, however, you can download the new version from your game library. I'm not sure why it worked like this, but I hope this helps you.
The more you send out, the better your weekly review will be, basically. If you're making a comfortable amount of money, though, it's just extra. You don't have to send EVERYTHING out. Especially low rank stuff. You will not get paid for anything level 0 or special, I believe. Try to avoid sending anything under 0.5 MB's, as they're usually not good enough for good money, or usually end up special in some way. Anything else, you can send for extra money if you want to.
You need a grappling hook. You can purchase them from the store. There will be a slit you can look through, on the back of the bunker. The card will be on the stairs, which you can grab and pull to your with the grapple. After you get the card and open the first door, you will need a password changer for the second door at the bottom, and then you'll be inside, and can get your omega recipe.
(WARNING: Practice with the grappling hook first, if you don't know how it works yet. You could very well throw it and lose it if you don't use it correctly, and you'll have to buy another.)
There should be a tick box in the visuals somewhere to switch it from normal fullscreen to borderless. Now that you mention it, there may not be a windowed mode, and I remembered that wrong. I apologize for that. If you already tried the tick box, though, I would say make sure your resolution is set correctly. Or -- in games that have done this to me before -- try resetting from fullscreen to borderless, or the other way around and see if that improves at all.
Strange. It hasn't been that hard on my end. It's not as fast as you may think, too. I don't think there's ever a time when you're being rushed to do anything. Most combos are just item and inventory management, anyway, so it's not too important. You can always take the simpler route for that one. The number keys not working is strange, though. Have you tried looking through your controls to make sure everything is set properly? And the windows key thing, well, I am unsure how this could be common for you, BUT, a possible workaround would be to set your fullscreen mode to Fullscreen Borderless. This may help the fullscreen remain so, while stuff is layered on top.
