    Windows key

    I'm sure many of you know about Windows key shortcuts, but if you don't here's what they are. I use many of these daily, especially the Windows Explorer shortcut.


    Windows Key Displays Start Menu


    Windows Key + E Opens Windows Explorer


    Windows Key + F Opens The Find All Files window


    Windows Key + D Minimizes all windows and displays the Desktop


    Windows Key + D Opens all windows and returns you to the window in focus


    Windows Key + R Opens the Run dialog box


    Windows Key + L Lock your XP computer


    Windows Key + M Minimizes all open windows


    Windows Key + Shift + M Restores all previously open windows to where they were before being minimized


    Windows Key + F1 Displays Windows Help Menu


    Windows Key + Pause/Break Displays System Properties dialog box


    Windows Key + Tab Cycles through buttons on the Task Bar

              Excellent post for someone who never thought about that little key, like me...
