10 shortcuts to improve productivity

        Although the mouse gives us very convenient operation, even in the latest Win8 system, graphical desktop management, we only need to touch the screen to quickly execute a command, but the keyboard is still the best hardware we can't get rid of. For example, input, using the keyboard will obviously be faster than touching the button, which is a long-established habit. Will one day, will we abandon or forget the mouse and keyboard? At least for now, we can't do it. The Win8 system will let us experience more of the convenience of the touch screen, but if we can master the use of some shortcut keys, we will definitely get a better experience. And for the Win7 system? Although it is already very intelligent, if you make good use of some shortcut keys, it can greatly improve our operational efficiency. It is advisable to practice a few times, keep it in mind, and keep control.

First of all, let's talk about the Win key, which is the Microsoft logo key on the keyboard. On the Win8 dedicated keyboard, we have also adopted the latest Microsoft LOGO. Since we touched the Windows system, it will often Use this function key, such as pressing the Win key to open the start menu, obviously faster than you use the mouse to move to the bottom left corner of the desktop. But in the Win7 system, through the combination of the Win key and other keys, you can also achieve more functions, the following, do not know which one you are using?

1. Win + X: Open Mobile Center

Mobile Center, currently only available in Win7 system, and only supports notebooks. The mobile center can be quickly launched via the Win+X button, where you can set display brightness, quick power plan, external display and slide show control.

2, Win + Space: Display desktop

Display the desktop, in the Win7 system is actually two states, one is to move the mouse to the lower right corner of the "display desktop "Do not click the mouse after, the desktop displayed at this time is only used for quick preview, when the mouse moves away from this position, the desktop window is restored; the other is to move the mouse to display the desktop and click the mouse, then the desktop is fully displayed. After moving the mouse, the window will not be restored.

And "Win + Spacebar" only implements the first one, that is, the quick preview displays the desktop. The action is to press the shortcut key to display the desktop, release and restore; the second complete To display the desktop, we can use the "Win + D" button. When pressed, it minimizes all windows, displays the desktop, and presses again to open all the previous windows.

3, Win + Tab: 3D window switching

The above picture, I believe many people have seen it, this is also a lot of people feel that Win7 is a cool interface, in fact, it is a window Switch. The operation method is: hold down the Win key, and then press the Tab key to switch one by one.

In fact, in the Win7 system, there are many operations on the window, such as preview of the window, switching of the window, and the effect of the display is not the same, but all are for quickly browsing and opening the required window. .

There is also a key combination: Alt + Tab, which is also a window switch. The effect of the display is as follows:

The window called by the Alt + Tab shortcut is a thumbnail preview. The effect is to quickly display the active window by sliding the mouse over the current window on the thumbnail.

4, Win + number 1-0 (above the main keyboard letter area)

This set of shortcut keys can start the first to the first from the left on the Windows 7 taskbar. Ten programs, if the corresponding program has been started, you can switch to the window of the program. If the window has multiple similar windows, you can cycle through the same number repeatedly.

These key combinations can be said to be specifically designed to work with the Windows 7 taskbar. I don't know how many friends have used Windows 7's taskbar to make the best use of it. If the taskbar is still blank in the absence of a program, it would be a pity. Move the frequently used program shortcuts on the desktop to the taskbar. If you want to start any program in the future, just click the number corresponding to Win +.

5, Win + Home: Minimize the window behind the current window

It sounds a bit sloppy. In general, we will open multiple windows, and we want to minimize some of them, but we can only minimize them one by one, but you may be focusing on the design of one PS. Other windows may affect you. Press Win + Home. In addition to your PS, other windows let them minimize it.

6, Win + ↑ /↓ (direction keys): window maximize, minimize, restore switching

This group of shortcuts, should be considered to achieve three functions: current If the window is maximized, press “Win ​​+ ↓” to restore to the window state; press again to minimize it to the taskbar; if the current window is adjustable, press Win + ↑ to maximize the window.

After the window is minimized, the group shortcut cannot restore the window.

Win + Left ← /Right → (Direction Key)

This group of shortcut keys is also a loop. Under the current window, press Win + ← /→ to make the current window occupy Left or right half of the screen (depending on the left and right buttons), with multiple displays, press the same direction button continuously to move the window to another display.

For those who often compare two documents, use this shortcut to avoid switching between documents. Use this function to have a little bit of requirements on the display, preferably 1440 * 900 or higher widescreen resolution (1680 * 1050 is an ideal resolution), so that the content of the document can be displayed completely without scrolling left and right.

About the Win key, we mainly talk about the application related to the window. Of course, it has other applications, but in terms of speed and efficiency, it is very intimate to understand these. Let's take a look at other efficiency-related shortcuts.

7, Alt + P: Open/close preview pane in Explorer

Press Alt + P in Windows Explorer to quickly open/close the preview pane. The preview pane allows you to quickly view selected files. For mouse operations, you need to click on "Organization" - "Layout" on the Explorer, then select or cancel the "Preview Pane" option.

In addition to viewing images, the preview pane provides instant preview of a variety of documents, including TXT text, Word, Excel and other Office documents (provided Office is installed). If there is a lot of picture preview software that can be replaced by the image preview, then the document preview function is undoubtedly more practical. When searching for a certain document, you don't have to open it one by one to identify it.

8, Ctrl + Shift + N : New Folder

In the folder window, press Ctrl + Shift + N to quickly create a folder, if it is in IE9 Pressing this group of keys in the device opens a new tab in a new window.

The Ctrl+Shift+Esc shortcut can open the task manager directly under any circumstances.
