To use a key shortcut, you will hold down one or more modifier keys and press a letter (or another modifier key). Modifier keys include the following:   Ctrl - Usually found on the left and right sides of the keyboard. The right Ctrl key will be just left of the arrow keys.  Alt - Found on the left and right sides of the keyboard, farther in toward the center of the keyboard than Ctrl.  ⇧ Shift - Symbolized by an upward-facing arrow, this key is on the left and right sides of the keyboard.  Fn - The "function" key allows you to use secondary functions of other keys. Commands that use the function keys (e.g., F8) may require use of the Fn key.  ⊞ Win - This key displays the Windows logo, and is normally in the bottom-left side of your keyboard.  Arrow keys - While not technically modifier keys, the arrow keys can be used to select items.  ↵ Enter - This key allows you to open a selected item. It's essentially a mouse left-click. These combinations help you perform basic Windows tasks:   F1 - Open the Help page. You must have Internet access for this. If your computer has an Fn key, you may need to hold it while pressing F1.  ⇧ Shift+F10 - Bring up the context menu for a selected item. This is usually accomplished by right-clicking.  Ctrl+⇧ Shift+Esc - Open the Task Manager.  Ctrl+Alt+Del - Open the Windows Security menu. (works from XP to 10)  Alt+Space - Bring up the current window's System menu, from which you can resize, minimize, maximize, or move the current window.  Ctrl+Tab ↹ - Move through current window's tabs (e.g., in a browser).  Ctrl+Esc - Open the Start menu.  Alt+Tab ↹ - Switch between currently open windows, excluding the desktop.  Alt+F4 - Close an open window or program.  ⇧ Shift+Delete - Permanently delete a selected item. This will bypass the Recycle Bin, though you'll need to click OK to confirm.  ⊞ Win - Open Start.  ⊞ Win+L - Lock the computer. If your computer doesn't use a password, this will still take you to the user selection screen.  ⊞ Win+R - Open the Run box.  ⊞ Win+M - Minimize all open windows and display the desktop.  ⇧ Shift+⊞ Win+M - Restore all minimized windows.  ⊞ Win+E - Open File Explorer.  ⊞ Win+Ctrl+F - Find another computer on your network (networked computers only).  ⊞ Win+Tab ↹ - View all currently open Windows.  ⊞ Win+⎊ Break - Open the System Properties window.  ⊞ Win+⎙ PrtScr - Take a screenshot.  Ctrl+F - Open a search bar to look for specific words or phrases on the page. There are several text-editing shortcuts in Windows that extend to most instances of typing, as well as file copying and pasting:   Ctrl+C - Copy selected text. You can also use this to copy selected files or folders.  Ctrl+X - Copy and remove selected text (known as "cutting").  Ctrl+V - Paste copied text at the cursor. This also works with files and folders.  Ctrl+Z - Undo the last action. Depending on the program, this command can be used multiple times to undo multiple mistakes.  Ctrl+Y - Reverse the last undo. Depending on the program, this command can be used multiple times to revert multiple undo commands.  Ctrl+P - Print your document.  Ctrl+S - Save your document.  Ctrl+B - Bold the selected text. This will work in Microsoft Office products and most email providers.  Ctrl+U - Underline the selected text. This will work in Microsoft Office products and most email providers.  Ctrl+I - Italicize the selected text. This will work in Microsoft Office products and most email providers. There are a few keyboard shortcuts you can use to navigate in the File Explorer:   F2 - Rename a selected item.  F4 - Places the mouse cursor in the address bar.  F5 - Refreshes the folder.  F6 - Selects a different pane in the File Explorer window.  Ctrl+A - Selects every item in the current window.  Alt+↵ Enter - Open a selected item's Properties menu. Most programs have an advanced menu that can be accessed using the mouse while pressing a key:   ⇧ Shift + Right-Click - Shows a drop-down menu with extra options based on the item you're right-clicking.  ⇧ Shift + Double-Click - Runs the alternate double-click command, which is the second option in the right-click drop-down menu.
