Windows XP keyboard shortcuts

  • Did you know there is a wealth of keyboard shortcuts in Windows XP which will make your computer usage a lot more efficient? Instead of clicking the mouse, you can use the keyboard to accomplish tasks quicker. My most favourite shortcut is used to open new windows in Internet Explorer. When viewing a webpage, I like to open links in new windows. The long way is to right-click the link and select ‘Open in New Window’. Alternatively, and more quickly, you can accomplish the same effect by holding SHIFT and clicking the link. Another good shortcut is ALT + TAB to switch between open windows and Windows Key + E, to open Windows Explorer. You can find a full list of shortcuts at support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=301583. id=”more-1163″>

Hi there. If this is the first time you are posting a comment it will not appear immediately, but needs to be approved. This is necessary in order to combat comment spam. However, once you have submitted a comment (which is subsequently approved) you do not need to go through this process again - the site remembers who you are and auto-approves your comments. Nifty eh? Anyway, sorry about the inconvenience that this may cause for your first comment post.
