The F2 to rename and then tab to rename the next file is the BEST thing I've learned today LOL. Thanks!

This video is packed with super useful shortcuts! It’s amazing how just a few keys can save so much time and effort-especially the Windows + V for clipboard history and Windows + D to instantly clear the screen. I’m definitely trying out a few of these right now. Thanks for sharing such great tips!

8:02 You can hold Shift+Tab to go to the previous file. Works on anything that lets you tab to a next button/selection. Shift+Tab cycles to the previous button/selection

Nice ones Brett. Your users who like this video might like one on remapping keys, and even a bit on the merits of a programmable keyboard.

Alt f4. , will close the current window, repeat for multiple windows. Also known as the Boss key. In Libre Office Calc or Excel , ctrl ; will type the current date.

Maybe not a basic function, but I often use 'Wdws + alt + R' to record the screen.

[@GaryB007]

I still can't get out of the habit of using Shift+Insert to paste. It was the original paste shortcut.

[@michaelyip324]

can you do something on password management. I don't know how to view passwords because they are always being covered in "*". I want to write them down somewhere and keep track of them

[@mikepanchaud1]

Some older sofrware does not allow copying with the mouse, so yes ctrl C is extremely useful.

Most of the time when I have multiple file explorer windows open, it's because I'm dragging something from one to another, and thus I want both of them simultaneously open and not tapped, which means that 98.7% of the time, tab windows explorer is useless.

[@Lubbehobby]

Copy and paste
