23 KILLER WINDOWS 7 SHORCUTS THAT NOBODY KNOWS ABOUT

Shortcuts make your life easy. Too bad there ain't shortcuts for a successful life. But we do have some killer shortcuts for Windows 7. So let us use what we have than contemplate on what we don't. Keyboard guys are gonna love this. Mouse guys are gonna love this too. Check these out.




Shift+Delete - Delete the selected item without moving it to the Recycle Bin(if you don't it, delete it forever, emptying recycle bin is a pain sometimes)
F2 - Rename the selected item(without right clicking and clicking on rename, 2 clicks saved y'see)
F3 - Search for a file or folder(works on both Windows Explorers or any Browsers).
Ctrl+F4 - Close the active document(in programs that allow you to have multiple documents open simultaneously. Browsers, word processor, whatever)
Alt+Tab- Switch between open items(in browsers basically, can be done in any other program as well).
+Tab- Switch between items the Aero Flip way(Ah! this is super cool)
Ctrl+Mouse scroll wheel - Change the size of icons on the desktop(or the size of the text in your browser)
Ctrl+Alt+Arrow Keys - Rotate your screen(weird but useful).
Ctrl+Shift+Esc - Open Task Manager(in 1/4th of a second).
Shift when you insert a CD - Prevent the CD from automatically playing(Gets annoying right? Not anymore!)
Ctrl+Tab - Move forward through tabs(This one is a really cool thing to do in your browser).
+D - Display the desktop(Someone pops up and you don't wanna show your confidential thing to him? Right ahead)
+L - Lock your computer or switch users(The easy way).
+T - Cycle through programs on the taskbar(Clicking is a hard thing to do).
+ number - Start the program pinned to the taskbar in the position indicated by the number. If the program is already running, switch to that program(Ah this one is real cool!).
+Home - Minimize all but the active window(The same thing as Aero shake but who would do all the trouble to shake the window?)
+Shift+Up Arrow - Stretch the window to the top and bottom of the screen(Oh well).
+P - Choose a presentation display mode(Quick Way to browse through your Presentation mode)
Ctrl+Shift+N - Create a new folder(Clicks saved).
Ctrl+Period (.) - Rotate a picture clockwise(Indeed).
Ctrl+Comma (,) - Rotate a picture counter-clockwise(Ahh!!)
Num Lock+Asterisk (*) on numeric keypad - Display all subfolders under the selected folder(You didn't know about this, did you?)
Num Lock+Plus Sign (+) on numeric keypad - Display the contents of the selected folder(Real Cool right?)


These ones are the ones that I thought could be the most useful ones. If you want more, please visit Microsoft's official page.
