SHOULD KNOW
[b]
Using keyboard shortcuts can greatly increase
your productivity, reduce repetitive strain, and
help keep
you focused. This article is designed by
ķзmίĦånsom ﻉ to teach you the very important
keyboard shortcuts that will enhance your pc
experience For example, highlighting text with
the keyboard and pressing Ctrl + C is much
faster than taking your hand from the
keyboard, highlighting the
text using the mouse, clicking copy from the
file menu, and then putting your hand back in
place on the keyboard. Below are very
important keyboard shortcuts we recommend
everyone memorize and use.
Ctrl + C or Ctrl + Insert
Copy the highlighted text or selected item.
Ctrl + V or Shift + Insert
Paste the text or object that's in the clipboard.
Ctrl + Z and Ctrl + Y
Undo any change. For example, if you cut text,
pressing this will undo it. This can also often
be pressed multiple times to undo multiple
changes. Pressing Ctrl + Y would
redo the undo.
Ctrl + F
Open the Find in any program. This includes
your Internet browser to find text on the
current page.
Alt + Tab or Alt + Esc
Quickly switch between open programs
moving forward.
Adding the Shift key to Alt + Tab or Ctrl + Tab
will move backwards. For example, if you are
pressing Alt + Tab and pass
the program you want to switch to, press Alt +
Shift + Tab to move backwards
to that program.
Windows Key + Tab
To switch through
open programs in a full screenshot of the
Window.
Ctrl + Back space and Ctrl + Left arrow / Right
arrow
Pressing Ctrl + Backspace will delete a full word
at
a time instead of a single character.
Holding down the Ctrl key while pressing the
left or right arrow
will move the cursor one word at a time
instead of one character at a time.
If you wanted to highlight one word at a time
you can hold down Ctrl + Shift and then press
the left or right arrow key to move one word
at a time in that direction while highlighting
each word.
Ctrl + S
While working on a document or other file in
almost every
program pressing Ctrl + S will save that file.
This shortcut key should be
used frequently anytime you're working on
anything important.
Ctrl + Home / End
Move the cursor to the beginning or end of a
document.
Ctrl + P
Print the page being viewed. For example, the
document in Microsoft Word or the
web page in your Internet browser.
Page Up / Space bar and Page Down
Pressing either the page up or page down key
will move that page one page at a time in that
direction.
When browsing the Internet pressing the
space bar will also move the page down one
page at a time.
If you press Shift and the Space bar the page
will go up a page at a time.
