Simple Tricks and Shortcuts for Windows 10
You need to get as much productivity out of your computer as possible while working. If you can speed up some of the ways you access specific information, you can accomplish even more. Shortcuts are very helpful to this end. Below are some of the easiest ways you can save time while working with a computer.
Restoring Closed Tabs
Accidentally closing a tab can be irritating, especially if you can’t remember how you got there. Thankfully, there is a shortcut you can utilize to get back to where you were. This shortcut is Ctrl + Shift + T, which will reopen a recently closed tab.
Close a Window or Tab
If you are ready to close your window or tab, you can use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + W to close it faster.
Spacebar Scroll
If you don’t want to utilize your mouse wheel to scroll down a page, you can use the spacebar instead. If you hold down the Shift key and tap Space, your screen will jump down in full-screen increments rather than the slow crawl from just the arrow key.
Mousewheel Functions
You can use your mouse scroll wheel to execute various tasks. One of them involves quickly opening a link in a new tab. You can do this by clicking on it with the mouse scroll wheel (yes, there is a button under it). This saves you the trouble of going through multiple clicks with your mouse.
