The BIG List of Windows 10 Keyboard Shortcuts<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Microsoft published this list of Windows 10 Keyboard shortcuts and featured them in an email newsletter last summer. It piqued our interest and we thought we’d share this list with you. We’re big fans of keyboard shortcuts and use them all the time. They’re time-savers. If you use them often enough you’ll memorize them. No one is going to memorize all the shortcuts on this BIG list, but you can print it and use it as reference. Y<\/span>ou can print it quickly and easily by using the green Print Friendly near the top of this post. See it? Good…<\/span><\/p>\n

These shortcuts are for Windows 10, but if you’re using Windows 7 or Windows 8x, don’t be dismayed. Many of these shortcuts will work just fine for you too.<\/span><\/p>\n
