Windows 7 system operation skills collection highlights

In Windows 7, the number of combined shortcuts has been further increased, and the following quick combinations can make your daily operations faster and more convenient.

The first is the shortcut for window management and operation.

Win + up and down arrow keys:

The size of the program window is often encountered, especially between the default window and maximization. Before Windows 7, you can only do this by clicking the maximize/restore button in the upper right corner or double-clicking on the title bar. Now when you want to maximize the current window, you can also use the keyboard combination of Win + up arrow. Implementation; Win + down arrow to restore to the original window. In particular, you can minimize it by pressing the Win + down arrow under the original window.

For maximizing, restoring, etc. In addition to the above shortcuts and the previous mouse mode, there is also an operation mode, you can hover the mouse on the window title bar and click and drag to the top edge of the screen, the window will Will automatically maximize; the same, dragging away from the top will restore the original window. This method is more suitable for use in touch screen devices. As a new system that supports touch devices, such operations will appear in more places, as mentioned later.

Win + Shift + Up and Down Arrows

Large-screen, high-resolution display devices are very much needed for people who are engaged in design and art, but for everyday use by ordinary people. In fact, too large a screen is sometimes a drag. A lot of software doesn't need a lot of display area, especially the width, so more often you just want to make the window height longer, and the width doesn't need to be increased, such as browsing the web. Microsoft obviously took this into consideration, so with a highly maximized operation in Windows 7, you can maximize the current window height with the Win + Shift + up key combination, while the width remains the same; the same as before, Win + Shift + Down to restore the original position.

What do you do with the mouse? Follow me, when you hover your mouse over the top edge of the window and turn it into a double arrow pattern, you can maximize the height by pulling the mouse to the top of the desktop. Stopping at the lower edge of the window and pulling down to the bottom has the same effect.

Win + left and right arrow keys

With the popularity of 19-inch widescreen displays, two or more windows side by side in one screen are already very useful. Meaning, but each time you have to manually adjust the size and position, it is quite inconvenient. The emergence of Windows 7 has improved this problem to some extent. If you only need two windows side by side, you can do it with a combination of keys. Win + left the current window to the left with the centerline of the screen as the reference, and maximizes (Win + restores the original position to the right); Win + to the right is displayed to the right (Win + to the left). With this set of shortcuts, you can easily display any two windows side by side. This feature is useful for friends who write often, you can use half of the information to display the information and the other half to place the editing software.

Win + Shift + Left and Right Arrows

This is a shortcut designed for computers connected to multiple display devices. Previously moving the program to another display required dragging, and now using these two sets of shortcuts makes it easy to send the current window to the left or right display.

Win + Home key

The function of this key combination is to keep only the current program window, while minimizing other windows, press again to restore all windows. There is another cool way to do this. It was mentioned at the end of the third class, that is, left click on the title bar and hold it down, then shake it three times at medium to top speed, then shake it three times. restore. This is also suitable for operation of touch screen devices.

Win + P key

For external projectors, this shortcut key can help you quickly set the display mode. Repeat button can be switched in 4 modes.

Win + main keyboard number keys (1-0)

This set of key combinations does not need to say more, any place that introduced Windows 7 new taskbar It will be mentioned, it can start the program in the corresponding order (up to 10), the RC version adds the selection function, and the running program can be selected by Win + number.

Shift + Right click

Right click on the Windows 7 taskbar icon, you will see the new JumpList, but maybe some friends will miss the original maximization /minimization /shutdown, etc. Option, try to hold down Shift and then right click, see, the familiar menu is out again.

I don't know if you have encountered Explorer (Resource Manager) crash in daily operations. Because Explorer usually runs as a single process, it can be irritating in the event of a crash, including desktops and the like. An improved method is provided in Windows 7, allowing multiple Explorer processes. QQ Love (http://www.QQai.Net/) reminds everyone to open the resource manager, hold down Shift, then right click on any partition or folder, select "Open in new process". At this point in the task manager, you will find that two Explorer processes are running, so that even if one of them crashes for some reason, the impact on the entire system is small.

Ctrl + Shift + Double-click

From Vista, you will often use the right-click menu "Run as administrator" in daily operations, always use the right button Sometimes it's not so easy. Now, hold down Ctrl + Shift and start the program to run "administrator" directly.

Win + Space

Transparently all windows, leaving only the border, the same effect as hovering over the "Show Desktop" button.

Win + T

The first icon of the taskbar is turned into focus, and you can cycle through all the icons in the taskbar, regardless of whether it is running or not.

Retrieve Quick Launch Bar

Friends who come from XP and Vista all the way, must be very valued for the quick launch bar, as a collection of application startup files and folders. It saved us a lot of time. After entering Windows 7, with the appearance of the super taskbar, the previous quick launch bar was removed, which made friends who used to use the quick launch bar feel very uncomfortable. Although the new super taskbar also has the ability to quickly launch the bar, some people still want to retrieve this quick launch bar.

OK, no problem, we can let the quick launch bar return by other means. Right-click on the blank space of the taskbar, select "Toolbar" - "New Toolbar", then enter the following path in the box below:

%UserProfile%\\AppData\\Roaming\\Microsoft\\Internet Explorer\\Quick Launch (Please replace the full corner with the half-width state)

Click "Select Folder" to see a Quick Launch text on the right side of the taskbar, in order to make it more Like the original quick launch bar, you need to make a small adjustment, first remove the lock task bar, then right click on Quick Launch, remove the check mark in front of "display text" and "display title", and finally drag it to the taskbar. The far left. Ok, the previous quick launch bar is back.

Here, I suggest that you try to use the locker function of the super taskbar. After locking your favorite programs to the taskbar, you don't need to start from other places. Unless you have a bunch of things to put in the quick launch bar.

Let the Explorer open the computer by default instead of the library folder

Click the Explorer icon on the taskbar, Windows 7 opens the library folder by default instead of the previous "computer (I Computer)", this must be very inconvenient for many people, although you can fix the "computer" to the Resource Manager's JumpList list, but it always makes people feel awkward.

Want to restore the original way? In fact, it is very simple, you only need to modify the shortcut pointed to by the resource manager to achieve the purpose. First close all the resource management windows, then hold down Shift and right click on the Explorer icon on the taskbar, switch to the "Shortcuts" tab, add a space and a comma at the end of the default path in the target box, click OK carry out.

Try it now, just click on the Explorer icon on the taskbar and you will see the computer directory open directly.

Running as a different user

This feature is available in XP and has been removed from Vista. Now it is back in the system. Hold down Shift and right click on the program you want to run, and you will see the option "Run as another user". Maybe you will ask, since you have run as an administrator, what else do you want? I might as well imagine this situation. There are many people on a computer. You need to do something temporarily and the current login user has limited permissions. You don't know the administrator account password, but you have your own login account and have sufficient permissions. This option can save you the trouble of re-logging the current user to log in, such as some computers in the company.

Shift + Left

In the Windows 7 Super Taskbar, clicking on a running program icon will select the program. If I want to run the same program again? It's also very easy. Hold down Shift and click on the program icon to open the second program window. In addition, you can achieve the same effect by directly clicking the middle mouse button.

Mouse gestures

Mouse gestures in Windows 7 are more prepared to support touch-type devices, because the touch device does the right mouse button operation, but it still does not work at present. To. So similar to right-clicking the taskbar icon to open the JumpList operation, switching to a touch device will definitely make the user crazy. But please rest assured, Microsoft has not forgotten this important operation, if you use the touch device or the right mouse button does not worry, there is another convenient way to do it, that is, with the mouse gesture: move to the target program icon, click Left click and slide up slightly (if your taskbar likes to be on the top of the screen, then the corresponding track is swipe down) to make the mouse escape the icon range, then you will see JumpList follow your mouse on the screen On, the period is accompanied by a gradient effect.

Remove the automatic adjustment volume

When Windows 7 detects that the computer is conducting a phone call and other communication activities, it will automatically lower the other volume. If you don't like this, It can be turned off. Right click on the speaker icon in the notification area of ​​the taskbar, select Sound, then go to the Communication tab and change the option to "Do nothing" to close it.

Open the CMD command window in the current path

This is not a new trick, but for those who rarely use the CMD window, you may not know this feature. In fact, it is also Shift. + One of the additional options for the right mouse button, but only for folders or hard disk partitions. This can be done in the blank of the folder window or on a selected folder.

Windows Live Messenger Minimizes to System Notification Area

Using WLM under Windows 7 will find that the WLM icon will always exist on the taskbar, if you want it to stay on the right side as before For the notification area, just run in Windows Vista compatibility mode. This way, when the WLM main window is minimized, it will not appear in the lower taskbar, saving you an icon position.

In fact, after testing, other popular programs that support minimizing to the tray area under XP/Vista can use this method to minimize it. Does not appear in the taskbar after the change.

At this point, some of the more useful tips are put together here, the above operations do not involve sensitive content such as the registry, you can rest assured that practice. However, since Windows 7 has not yet released the official version, perhaps the above tips will change in the future, just like PC Safeguard disappears in RC, but these techniques are at least effective at present, I hope to bring you some help.
