Just getting started with Windows 7? Well, here are 11 Windows key (pictured below) shortcuts that will start you off on the right foot with Microsoft’s latest operating system.
Let’s take a look!
Win + Up Arrow – Maximize
Win + Down Arrow – Minimize
Win + Left Arrow – Snap to Left
Win + Right Arrow – Snap to Right (see a pattern here?)
Win + Home – Restore or minimize all other windows
Win + T – Press once to focus the first taskbar entry; press again to cycle through taskbar entries
Win + Space Bar (hold) – Peek at the desktop
Win + G – Bring gadgets forward to the top
Win + any number key (1-9) – Open a program on the taskbar. (The number corresponds to the pinned program’s location.)
Win + + (plug sign) – Zoom in
Win + - (minus sign) – Zoom Out
Beautiful!
