THEY FORGOT THE FOLLOWING: 1) center - CONTROL E; 2) bold - CONTROL B; 3) underline - CONTROL U; 4) close your word, powerpoint, excel documents - CONTROL W; 5) print document - CONTROL P; 6) change language (if you have 2 or more languages on your computer - ALT + SHIFT (HOLD ALT THEN PRESS SHIFT). These are the shortcuts I use all the time. Hope this helps. Almost forgot some very import computer shortcuts: CONTROL +Z - Undo previously typed work; CONTROL + C - copy highlighted work; CONTROL +V - past copied work. I use this to copy lengthy paragraphs into google translate, among other things. However, remember, if you have already "saved" your work and try to go back to "undo", it won't work.

The one I found most useful that wasn't mentioned here, as somebody who watched lots of anime was Ctrl + W . It closes the new tab that is usually a pop up ad, this way you don't need to move the mouse 7 million times between the play button and X. Just keep the mouse on the play and press if a new tab opens Ctrl + W. Saved me so many annoying seconds lol 😆

6:02 this might also happen after a short time. Windows always writes things on the hard disk, so a even after a few seconds there is a chance that the file was already overwritten.

[@Leonard1977ful]

I've noticed that too. Because of that, I've not always been able to seen every file that's been deleted. Sigh.

[@wanderer299a]

Police forensics can bring back all deleted files surely, so they can't be totally lost

[@rfvtgbzhn]

@@wanderer299a not true, it only works sometimes. Most of the time only a part of the deleted files can be recovered. CSI is not reality.

[@AtheistReligionIsCancer]

A true trick would be to know, that if you cannot update your windows computer, it might be because there is too much stuff in its update cashe. So if you clean it out, which you can probably use windows cleaner for (I use CC cleaner), then you can update again. You need to clean one thing at a time, else it will not work.

[@jonathansturm4163]

@@rfvtgbzhn Actually with real hard drives it _is_ true, albeit a tad expensive. Due to wear of the head actuating mechanism, the positioning of the head from the spindle varies, so a very much narrower head can often discriminate between several tracks on logically the same cylinder. Obviously this requires removing the platter from the drive and placing it in a purpose-built and very expensive drive mechanism. Obviously solid state drives are not vulnerable to this insecurity.

I knew #1 but also if you hold the "control" key and click a link will open that link in a new tab. Holding "shift" will open a new browser window. Putting phones in Airplane mode should do the same. I never thought of that trick. Lesson learned. Thanks!

[@phlotographer]

using the wheel by pressing it does the same as Ctrl + click on the link or also use R mouse the link and choose open in new tab.

hold shift + left/right arrows to select/highlight texts letter by letter, (hold ctrl as well to mark word by word). You can also mark line by line by pressing shift and up/down arrows. Ctrl + Enter to change page in Word Shift + Enter for new line without making a paragraph. (Not leaving/ignoring the spacing between the two lines) Ctrl A to select the whole text.

some are OK, the open tab one you could just click on the + above the search bar. however one of my favorite ones i discovered several years ago is the print screen. press the windows keys hold it then quickly hit the "print scrn" Button. it will take a picture of your computer screen.

No. 4 - downloading photos your way works for some people. For others (like myself) who need or want to "credit" the source later with dates, locations, etc., it is better to right click before saving. Important details should be added at the SAME TIME the image is saved for future reference. Just saying. Otherwise, ANOTHER GREAT VIDEO from BRIGHT SIDE.

[@l.clevelandmajor9931]

Some of these I would never use, but some are quite useful. As for the Ctrl-T shortcut, I think what was said here really depends on how we browse. I personally do not like a lot of tabs in my browsing. I try to keep it clean and simple. This works well for me, but I understand it may not be OK for others. I just don't like having too many tabs.

[@jonathansturm4163]

Yup! I tend to have the _opposite_ problem-too many tabs because clicking links opens a new tab. Not mentioned here is the power of keyboard shortcuts under the left hand and mousing with the right combined.

[@phlotographer]

just the opposite. 6 pinned and 9 others open at the moment. when all are view then will be down to 6 + maybe one or two. Just have not had a bit of time to look at the non-pinned so far the past couple days. Most are related to digital imaging programs I use.

[@superstaryatharthgupta6327]

Do Control W it will delete that tab

[@garylove2836]

That what he said find out who’s using your Wi-Fi and confront that person is not necessary just change your routers default password wpa3 if your router supports it or just go with wpa2 aes this would make it extremely difficult for anyone to steal your Wi-Fi.

For PC, I usually use alt+f4 instead of ctrl+Q to close applications

[@lilgto64]

Alt-F4 actually can do several different things - close a Window or close an App or logout - an overloading which annoys me when using Windows. I prefer using Command W to close a window but not risk quitting the App - and Command Q to quit the app without risking logging out.

Few Keyboard shortcuts added below... Moving junk files in Desktop to a Folder in desktop won't save anything, It is not only the number of files that reduces performance , it's the size of files, So move them to any Drive instead of C Drive, If you want it on your Desktop, create a shortcut. Because Desktop is a limited storage area allocated from C Drive. The folders that mainly take up your C Drive space are : Desktop & Downloads. Move junk files to other Drives from these folders , so that your PC will run faster. Few Shortcuts : Alt + Tab : Switches between currently opened windows (eg:Chrome,Notepad) Ctrl + Tab : Switches between Browser Tabs also works with applications let you open multiple tabs at once like Photoshop, Acrobat Reader etc. Shift + Ctrl + Tab : Same as Ctrl + Tab but in reverse Direction. Home: (Home key in keyboard) Moves Cursor to the beginning of the line; End: (End key in keyboard) Moves Cursor to the end of the line; Shift + Arrow keys : Selects text from current cursor position to the direction of arrow key you pressed. Shift + Home : Selects text from current cursor position to beginning of line. Shift + End : Selects text from current cursor position to end of line. Alt + F4 : exit an Application, Works on almost all Applications except Turbo C++ etc
