How to take advantage of the Windows shortcut key functions
Ever wonder why there is a key with the Windows logo on your
keyboard?
The Windows key, usually located in the bottom left side of your
keyboard between the CONTROL and ALT keys, can be one of the most used
keys on your keyboard, if you know how to use it. If you’re anything
like me, you’ve probably hit it a time or two on accident and know that
it pulls up the Start menu. Upon doing a little research, I realized it
can actually be quite a handy little addition to the keyboard as well
as a time saver!
Here are a few examples:
For example:
Windows key + 1 would open Internet Explorer.
Windows key + 2 would open Windows Explorer and so-on depending on the order of the programs you have listed on your Windows taskbar.
Over the years I’ve found it is sometimes both quicker and easier to use keyboard shortcuts rather than your mouse. Keeping your fingers on the keyboard will allow for a speedy transition back to typing. Hope this helps!
