Great video! I didn't know there were so many shortcuts. I knew a few of them but quite a few of them were new to me. Many thanks!

[Spawny]

One of my favorite short cuts. Ctrl + Mouse Scroll. You can quickly zoom in and out.

3:49 That's a good shortcut but if you don't want to use a photo editor to past the picture you can use windows+alt+printscreen. The picture will be on the folder called captures inside videos.

When you're in your browser and many tabs open, pressing CTRL+1 will switch to the first tab, CTRL+2 will switch to the second tab and so on...

Thanks a lot bro! I didn't know how to do the croping in computer.

Ctrl+Shift+Esc for task manager & win key+pause for PC info.

Instead of Cntrl-V, use Windows-V to bring up a small pop up menu with about 20 of your recent “control-c’s” (recent copies). My job entails using the copy paste feature constantly, so this allows me to copy multiple items, and then choose what order I paste them in. Saves tons of time per day

Thank you for sharing useful keyboard shortcuts you are truly helpful and awesome^^

Related to the Control +(plus) and - (minus) to enlarge or reduce screen view, Control 0 (zero) will return the screen to the default size.

Thanks for the useful tips. Always enjoy your concise videos.

You taught us the Reopen Browser Tab a couple months ago. I think I've used it almost every day since. You are my Windows Sensei. Thanks for sharing, oh Great One!
