Top 5 Keyboard Shortcuts :
- CTRL+SHIFT+ESC : This will open " Windows Task Manager " in a pop up window, this is mainly use full for closing any applications that are not responding or making windows to Freeze. if you are facing problems with your mouse or with your desktop icons, you can simply open task manager and go to file and click on New Task(Run...) a pop up window " Create New Task " will open. then click on " Browse " button , now you can open any program by simply clicking on it. another method is to open it by typing the location of your program yourself. ie if you want to open C Drive, type " C:\ " and click ok. This shortcut has also another alternative ie " CTRL+ALT+DELETE " which does the same as above.
- ALT+TAB : This keyboard Shortcut is used to switch between different items (programs). when many programs are running on your system like browser,any game,My Computer at a time, it is very irritating to shift between programs by always minimising or closing the program. by using this shortcut you can easily shift between programs.
- SHIFT+DELETE : Bored of deleting items both from their location and also on Recycle Bin, this keyboard shortcut can delete the data or item permanently from your Hard Drive. Be careful on using this shortcut, the item once deleted cant be restored back.
