Windows 10 Tips & Tricks You Should Be Using!

[@valuated4008]

I don't know if people already know this (probably) When you open a broswer and have multiple tabs you can hold Ctrl and press (any number from 1-9 it will switch tabs in the order that they're organized)

[@iam.harshitjain]

I didn't know that. It would be useful since I keep a lot of tabs open.

[@adamknight5089]

Great tip! 😊🌹

[@blearbenin]

thanks for the tip

[@xH3NRY14x]

thanks for the tip.

Thx dude

[@olipitt12]

2:30 you can also set your "print screen button" as the screen snipping button under settings - ease of access - Keyboard (under the interaction heading) can also be found by going to the start menu, typing "print screen" then clicking on the "use the print screen key to launch screen snipping"

[@avinavverma2315]

Dude that was helpful!

[@javadkhusro]

7:53 you can also pause updates indefinitely by going to advanced options and selecting to not download updates over metered connections, then in Network & Internet, select Change connection properties and set your network as metered.

[@sigbingaming]

I don't think that's wise

[@javadkhusro]

@@sigbingaming It's not, and should only be used if you need to make sure the computer doesn't turn itself off for more than 35 days. I even update my computer every night.

[@sherazade82]

Don't forget. Snipping tool also has the option to snapshot after 3 seconds or after 10 seconds. This lets you screenshot menus and other screens that you need to pull up manually into focus before the screenshot.

Finally a decent video, for us old school windows users, I now know of stuff that I can do, to be more productive and make better use of my time doing what I’m supposed to be doing and not fiddling around in Windows forever

[@422raziel]

Nice tips! Would like to add also those shortcuts that I frequently use. Win + E = Opens File explorer (show Explorer) Win + R = Opens run (show Run) Win + D = Hides everything (shows Desktop) CTR + SHIFT + ESC = Task Manager CTR + ALT + DEL = Lock / Switch / Sign out / Task manager options in one view

5:00 Slide to Shutdown. You can double click the top half of the screen bar (above the notification) instead of dragging it down. Quicker and easier, especially if you're tired.

[@ivoryowl]

Omg, that calculator trick and all the conversions... how come I never heard of this until now?!

[@agtripathi3]

This is probably the most useful video I have seen on Windows. You have earned a subscriber. :)

[@sgringo]

As a software engineer, I found no one else who knew about the shake trick. Sometimes you have to shake the window for a while before it reacts. On one occasion, while giving a presentation with my desktop projected on a screen, I started shaking a window, but the damn thing just wouldn't react. The reactions from people were funny -- I think they thought I had lost my damn mind. 😁

[@petermungai76]

Lol

[@RedBev59]

😂🤣👍..........I just used an Emoticon tip ........windows "key" + . /period/dot Calls up Emoticons. Cool, huh? that must have been funny at your meeting.

I love that windows has so many shortcuts available to pc users. I do wish Microsoft would have a location that these were viewable for everyone to see. If I had a certain use for shortcuts I would only know them if I searched for them myself.

[@barryfeatheringill6472]

WOW...mind blowing the options that are available. Appreciate this video for providing insight to options available and ease with which each option’s use is explained. I switched to Windows 10 a week ago and already comfortable with the new operating system. Looking forward to profitable and fun time learning more through TechGumbo videos!

[@Z3kyTw0]

This was awesome! thanks for uploading bro

[@PaddleAsia]

Thanks, bro... there are always at least a couple of new things that I use when you do videos like this... much appreciated. 🙏

[@StickFiguresMaster]

Tricks: Click Desktop, Hold Shift key with a desktop icons first letter, then click the Enter key - result: Open it. I.E: Shift + D - Discord, unless you have another icon that starts with D, click D again to select different app beginning with D Ctrl A = Select All Ctrl A + Ctrl C = Copy all that's selected Ctrl A + Ctrl C + Ctrl V = Select, Copy all that's selected and to paste it I.E: Notepad - Let's say you typed 123, Ctrl A to Select it all, Ctrl C to Copy it all, Ctrl V to Paste it (Works with images) Ctrl key + P = Print function Ctrl S = "Save As" function, example uses: This tab's video title will be what the key function thinks you'll save Ctrl W = Close tab in Internet Browser (Warning: Different use in other apps) Ctrl R = Reloads webpage. Ctrl E = URL is wiped and based on your default Web Searcher, if it's Google, it will say Search Google, otherwise it will be Search Bing (Warning: Different use in other applications). Ctrl K (Same function as Ctrl E) Ctrl T = Opens new tab in Web Browser Ctrl U = Use mouse to select a path of words, use Ctrl + U Result: Underline selected path of words (Don't worry if things are still underlined, use Ctrl + U again to remove underline) Ctrl N opens the Web Browser but on a new page, there will be a new tab in it Ctrl L copies your web browsers typed in URL Ctrl H = Opens Web Browsers History Ctrl F = Opens a blank box in Web Browser, used for typing words you want to find. I.E: If 123 is together anywhere on a page, typing 123 will make your Web Browsers scroll function be led to it Ctrl G (Same function as Ctrl F) Ctrl D = Edit your Favorites URL name, and the folder location Windows logo key + 1 to 9 selects the taskbars icons If your taskbar has only the Folder icon (Windows Explorer) Using Windows key + 1 will make Windows explorer open, all other taskbar icons will be opened down from 2 to 9, 0 doesn't work though.

[@caypie7200]

Keyboard Shotcuts: 1. Win + Shift + S = Snip & Sketch 2. Win + H = Dictation (for microsoft word) 3. Win + . = Emoji Menu 4. Win + [any number] = Open Pinned Programs

1. Use ctrl+shift+esc for opening task manager. 2. Win+D to minimize all apps and go to desktop. 3. alt+tab to switch btw apps 4. ctrl+2 to change the view of the folder(list or grid) 5. Win+x and then press C to open cmd (quickest way prolly)

A decade of reading random tips about Windows 7, and the first ore (Aero Shake) I had never heard of before. That was interesting.

[@RedBev59]

This guy gives me hope that at my old age I, too, will be able to do that. This SHAKE thing..........well, my new "hello Moto" cell phone showed me how to Shake it and my search light comes on!!! WOW.....and shake again to turn it off..........MY GOD I called four of my friends to tell them. THEY too were excited. Hard to hold on and SHAKE things at our age too.

@Steamed Hams once I did a few tweaks like the quick view with space bar and sorted the icons on the bottom its 80% like mac now. The only thing is there is a lot of faffing about just to do something and the search bar isn't great. Its amazing having an SSD though and I will keep my mac on high sierra 16gb ddr3 ram for now but if you have an SSD its like having more ram anymore. You?

Sincerely, ever since I learned about this, I've been able to start at/use my PC for easily double or triple the time with either the same or slightly less eye strain worst case.
