Tip #18 - Great Windows Keyboard Shortcuts

Sorry, this tip is not for my Apple friends.

Here are some keyboard shortcuts for those of you who enjoy using your keyboard rather than a mouse. Note that they use the neglected Windows Key, the one that has the windows flag logo on it. Striking Windows Key all by itself brings up the Start menu.

Windows Key + R – Opens the Run Program Dialog
Windows Key + M – Minimize all windows
Windows Key + Shift + M – Maximize all windows
Windows Key + F – Find files on your computer
Windows Key + E – Open My Computer window
Windows Key + L – Lock your computer

That minimize all windows might come in handy when the boss comes in!

As long as you’re sitting in front of your computer, try these shortcuts out. You may think they’re cool.

Happy Computing!
