Shortcut Keys

Here are few handy Windows Key shortcut keys I find useful

+ D	Go to desktop
+ W	Search settings only
+ F	Search files only
+ C	Show the ‘charms’ menu (the one on the right)
+ Tab	Switch between recently used apps and programs (left apps bar)
+ L	Lock the screen
+ E	Opens windows explorer
+ R	Open the Run dialog
+ S	Opens the Search everywhere. Also do this by pressing the Windows key and just start typing
+ X	This opens the ‘Quick Link’ menu. Very useful for the power users out there.
+ SHIFT + (left or right arrow)	Move an app or window from one monitor to the other if you have multiple monitor.
