Keyboard Shortcuts
What is the allure of keyboard shortcuts? Do they really save time? Why bother since my mouse is permanently attached to my hand? I like to use keyboard shortcuts, especially if someone is watching me, because they make me look like a pro. With just a few key strokes I can leave a mouser spinning his wheel! Whatever your motivation, here's a big list of keyboard shortcuts: GENERAL SHORTCUTS ALT- F4 - Quit a program / Shut down ALT-TAB - Hold down the ALT key and hit tab to cycle through open windows. CTL-ESCAPE - Display the Start menu SHIFT - TAB - tab backwards through a form CTRL - X - Cut CTRL - C - Copy CTRL - V - Paste F1 - Help menu CTRL - Z - Undo SHIFT & Restart - To restart just windows and not your whole computer, hold down the shift key when you click the OK button on the shutdown screen. Saves lots of time. (not for XP) CRTL-TAB - Navigate tabs on a tabbed screen FILE & DESKTOP SHORTCUTS Hold SHIFT while inserting a CD - Prevents the CD from "autorunning" If an item is selected: CTRL while dragging a file - Copies the file CTRL - SHIFT while dragging a file - Creates a shortcut to the file SHIFT - DELETE - Deletes an item without sending it to the recycle bin. ALT-ENTER - Display a file's properties. F2 - To rename the file In Windows Explorer: LEFT ARROW - Collapse the current selection if it is expanded NUM LOCK-MINUS SIGN (-) - Collapse the selected folder RIGHT ARROW - Expand the current selection if it is collapsed -Or- Select the first subfolder NUM LOCK- * Expand all folders below the current selection NUM LOCK- PLUS SIGN (+) - Expand the selected folder F6 - Switch between left and right panes In My Computer: BACKSPACE - View the folder one level up ALT- RIGHT ARROW - Move forward to a previous view ALT- LEFT ARROW -Move backward to a previous view INTERNET BROWSER SHORTCUTS For Internet Explorer 6 and Netscape 7 (may work in older versions) Open History Window Ctrl+H Reload Ctrl+R
Back (Previous Page) Alt+Left Arrow or Alt+Backspace Forward (Next Page) Alt+Right Arrow Stop Esc Home Alt+Home Go to Bottom of Page End Go to Top of Page Home New Window Ctrl+N Close WIndow Ctrl+W Go Up one Line Up Arrow Go Down One Line Down Arrow Full Screen (toggle) F11 Find on Page Ctrl+F Add Current Page to Favorites Ctrl+D Print Current Page or Active Frame Ctrl+P Organize Favorites (IE)/ Manage Bookmarks (NS) Ctrl+B Maximize a Window Alt+Space+x Minimize a window Alt+Space+N Scroll page up Alt+Up Arrow Scroll page down Alt+Down Arrow Internet Explorer ONLY Open Favorites Bar Ctrl+I Select text in address bar Alt+D Force Reload (not from cache) Ctrl+F5 A faster way to type in addresses with IE is to just type in the name of the site: worldstart and hit CTRL + Enter. The "http://www. " and ".com" will be added for you! Netscape ONLY Open / Close Sidebar Panel (toggle) F9 Select text in Location Bar Ctrl+L Force Reload (not from Cache) Ctrl+Shift+R Zoom Text Smaller Ctrl+- (minus) Zoom text larger Ctrl+= (plus sign)
WINDOWS KEY SHORTCUTS The Windows key can be used in conjunction with other keys to act as a keyboard shortcut for faster access to menu commands. Now, while the Alt key tends to open program menus (ex: Alt+F opens the File menu and Alt+E opens the Edit menu) and the Ctrl key performs actual operations (ex: Ctrl+C will copy and Ctrl+V will paste), the Windows key will open various Windows tools... Win key + R will open the Start menu's Run box Win key + F will open the Start menu's Find window Win key + E will quickly launch Explorer Win key + Pause/Break will open the System Properties window
Win key + M will Minimize all windows Win key + Shift + M will undo Minimize all windows Win key + D will switch between minimizing all open programs and showing them all Win key + Tab will cycle through items on the taskbar Win key by itself will open the Start menu You can also open programs or folders on your desktop by pressing the Windows key + the first letter of the program/folder/ shortcut + Enter . Sounds kinda tedious, but if you're in a bind with your mouse, it can come in quite handy. ARROW TRICKS Here's a cool little arrow trick to try with word processing programs. Next time you're using your arrow keys to go from one area of a sentence to another (left and right arrows), hold down your CTRL key. Instead of moving one space at a time, you'll go one word at a time. If you're using the up and down arrows to go from line to line, holding down the CTRL key will make your cursor jump from paragraph to paragraph (well, from carriage return to carriage return anyway). One last thing, if you hold down the SHIFT key while you do this (i.e. hold down SHIFT + CTRL at the same time), you select text as you arrow along. I've tested this in MS Word and Wordpad, but it *should* work no matter what word processing program you use. HOME / END KEY FUN Do you ever find yourself scrolling through a huge folder ? Well, if you need to get to the beginning or the end quickly, just press Ctrl+Home . If you want to get to the end, click Ctrl+End. Hey, that's not all! This little trick works on more than just folders. If you use the Home key in a word processor, it goes to the beginning of the line you're currently working on. If you hit the END key, it should head to the end of the current line. If you pair Home & End up with the Ctrl key in a word processor, you will be whisked away to the beginning or end of the document. Again, this should work, but it depends on your word processor.
Speedup your work by using keyboard more and mouse less.
