Windows: A widely used well known operating system, with plenty of applications, games, hardware and more. Oh, and shortcuts.
You might thing you know the shortcuts of Windows. Control-Alt-Delete is one. So is Control-Shift-Escape. But there are plently more, such as these:
Windows Key + L
Locks your computer quickly! Great if you need to go out the room but have a nosy sibling.
Shift + Delete
Use this on any file and you'll permanently delete it - no recycle bin, no nothing. Gone!
Alt + F6
Multiple windows open? Don't worry. This shortcut spreads them out for you so you can find what you're looking for.
Shift + Control + N
Gotta make a new folder? But don't want to spend all that time right clicking? Press this and it'll make you a new folder.
Windows Key + M
Millions of Windows open but need to find your desktop? Press this and head back there right away by minimizing all open windows to the taskbar.
Windows Key + Space Bar
Need to view your desktop but not access it? Use this and make all open windows transparent.
Windows Key + Shift + Left Arrow or Right Arrow
If you have a dual-monitor setup, then you can use this to send windows to and from monitors.
Windows Key + Number
If you have apps pinned to the taskbar, you can use this to quickly open them.
Windows Key + T
Browse your open apps on the taskbar quickly, and hit enter on the one you want to open.
Windows Key + (+/-)
Quickly zoom in or out of the screen using Magnifier.
