As soon as the first keyboards with the Win key appeared, I didn't hear a single positive opinion on this. Office samurai were surprised that in order to call the Start menu in Windows, a WHOLE BUTTON appeared on the keyboard ... and on laptops, by the way, too. But gamers spat the most, because at that time they were running and shooting from the keyboard, and the most "combat" keys were Ctrl, Alt and Space. And it turned out that the player's finger jumped off to Win in the hottest place, which led to the collapse of the game, and sometimes its collapse, and the player's eyes were presented with a Start!
Today, games are smarter, and Windows XP/Vista use the Win key to the maximum. Here are some combinations that you definitely need to know if you work in Windows.
Win: Opens the Start/Start menu.
Win + E: Opens Explorer/Conductor.
Win + R: Opens the Run command/To perform.
Win + U: Opens Windows utilities.
Win + L: Log Off.
Win + F: Search for files on the computer.
Win + D: Minimizes all windows to the taskbar, pressing again restores them.
Win + F1: Help.
Win + Pause/Break: System parameters.
Win + Tab: Switching between the quick launch buttons in the taskbar in XP, and in Vista leads to the launch of Flip3D switching windows with a nice three-dimensional effect.
Win + B: Selects icons in the system tray (near the clock), then with the keysTo the right and To the left, you can navigate through them and call the necessary parameters.
CTRL + Win + F: Search for computers.
By the way, if all the arguments in favor of the Win key did not convince you, then you can simply disable it (this is at your own risk, since you need to edit the system registry):
We hope that these combinations will be useful to you and will make working with the Windows operating system more productive.
