Handy keyboard shortcuts using the Windows key

Here is one of the homepages of a growing collection of Windows shortcuts – which I have found work in all versions.

Windows logo key

The most popular and simple ones are:-

  • D – Shows the Desktop by minimising all open windows
  • E – Opens the Windows Explorer
  • I – Opens Windows 10 Settings Panel
  • L – Locks the device – requires your password to unlock (if you have set one)
  • Tab – Opens the Task view, which looks like the image below to show you all open tabs!
