Handy hints for the win (erm..windows)


windows 7 win keyWindows 7 is creating new waves all around the world. We feel that this new baby from Miscrosoft is the next best OS from the time they had launched their (now discontinued) Windows XP. In this article we will tell you about 14 ways in which you could use the Win Key on your keyboard to do things faster in Windows 7.  The Win Key (along with a combination of other keys) on your keyboard can now be used to perform a variety of functions in Windows 7. Here we list them one by one.
Win+D ââ,¬â€œ Minimize all windows and show the desktop
Windows Key on your keyboard

Windows Key on your keyboard
Win+E ââ,¬â€œ Launch Explorer with Computer as the focus

Win+F ââ,¬â€œ Launch a search window

Win+G - Cycle through gadgets

Win+L ââ,¬â€œ Lock the desktop

Win+M ââ,¬â€œ Minimize the current window

Win+R ââ,¬â€œ Open the Run window

Win+Space ââ,¬â€œ Aero Peek the desktop

Win+T ââ,¬â€œ Cycle through task bar opening Aero Peek for each running item

Win+U - Open the Ease of Use center

Ctrl+Win+Tab ââ,¬â€œ Open persistent task selection window, roll mouse over each icon to preview item and minimize others

Win+Shift+arrow ââ,¬â€œ Move current window to alternate screen

Win+h ââ,¬â€œ Moves current window to full screen

Win+i ââ,¬â€œ Restore current full screen window to normal size (minimize current window if not full screen)

We often use the Win + L key combination to lock screens in case we need to leave our desktops and go around. This gives a level of security to your current work and open windows.

I use Win + L, M, D

I might start using Win + E as the task bar link doesn't put fous on "My computer".

They seem to have omitted Win+D, which minimizes everything to display your desktop. Most useful.

60 Alt + F4 (<9>) FileCloseOrExit Closes the current document, or if no documents are open, quits Word. Horrible command, as it makes it a long winded business to quit Word. But there's a simple solution - assign Alt+F4 to FileExit instead.

61 Alt + F4 (Word 97) FileExit Quits Microsoft Word and prompts to save the documents (does intercept the menu item, but not the keyboard shortcut, or the x button. An AutoExit macro is usually a better way of intercepting this).

62 NOT Ctrl+N!! FileNew Creates a new document or template (brings up the dialog). Note that: Word pretends that Ctrl+N is assigned to FileNew but it isn't, it's assigned to FileNewDefault You can fix this in Word 2000 by assigning Ctrl+N to the FileNewDialog command. In Word 97 the only way to fix it is to create a macro called FileNew (to do this, press Alt + F8, type &quot;FileNew&quot; without the quotes and Click &quot;Create&quot;. The macro will automatically contain the code needed to make it work).

71 Ctrl+Shift+F Font Activates the Fonts listbox on the formatting toolbar

72 Ctrl+Shift+P FontSizeSelect Activates the Font Size drop-down on the formatting toolbar

73 Alt + Ctrl + K FormatAutoFormat Automatically formats a document (or sometimes, automatically screws it up)

82 Alt O, T FormatTabs Brings up the Format Tabs dialog

83 Shift + F5 GoBack Returns to the previous insertion point (goes back to up to 3 points, then returns to where you started; this is one of the most useful shortcuts of them all. Also useful when opening a document, if you want to g straight to where you were last editing it)
