Um, duh.
What’s your favorite atypical short-cut?
I like the Alt + F4 shortcut, but the one I use the most is Ctrl + s, the writer’s friend.
I live for Ctrl+Z, the coward’s friend.
windows+m will perform the same thing (minimize :-) )
but the best is windows + R for the run window.
Alt-Spacebar gives you the little window menu that you normally get by clicking your upper-left program icon.
This way you can minimize, maximize, restore and move from the keyboard, which is crucial if you’re going to be a super nerd like me.
Ctrl + D, which is what I always set my Excel macros to.
‘Alt – F’ then ‘M’ to rename files. I’m kinda weird about all my filenames needing to be in the same format.
I’m a fan of CTRL+W to close windows. Helps a lot in tabbed browsing.
windows-pause/break -> leet way to get to dydtem properties
or ctrl-shift-esc -> leet way to go to task manager
ctrl+shft+z is most excellent for excel macros, since it can be done with one clustered paw
