As you all know Windows 7 is launched. Here s a little cheat sheet I made up for some of the handy new hot key combination, many of which I ve become quite dependent on!

From Desktop 1. Windows Key + Tab : Aero [press Tab to cycle between Windows] 2. Windows Key + E : Windows Explorer is launched. 3. Windows Key + R : Run Command is launched. 4. Windows Key + F : Search (which is there in previous Windows versions too) 5. Windows Key + X : Mobility Center

6. Windows Key + L : Lock Computer (It is there from the earlier versions as well) 7. Windows Key + U : Launches Ease of Access 8. Windows Key + P : Projector 9. Windows Key + T : Cycle Super Taskbar Items 10. Windows Key + S : OneNote Screen Clipping Tool [requires OneNote]

11. Windows Key + M : Minimize All Windows 12. Windows Key + D : Show/Hide Desktop 13. Windows Key + Up : Maximize Current Window 14. Windows Key + Down : Restore Down / Minimize Current Windows 15. Windows Key + Left : Tile Current Window to the Left

16. Windows Key + Right : Tile Current Windows to the Right [Continue pressing the Left and Right keys to rotate the window as well] 17. Windows Key + # (# is any number) : Quickly Launch a new instance of the application in the Nth slot on the taskbar. Example Win+1 launches first pinned app, Win+2 launches second, etc. 18. Windows Key + = : Launches the Magnifier 19. Windows Key + Plus : Zoom in 20. Windows Key + Minus : Zooms out 21. Windows Key + Space : Peek at the desktop

Taskbar modifiers 25. Shift + Click on icon : Open a new instance 26. Middle click on icon : Open a new instance 27. Ctrl + Shift + Click on icon : Open a new instance with Admin privileges 28. Shift + Right-click on icon : Show window menu (Restore / Minimize / Move / etc). Note: Normally you can just right-click on the window thumbnail to get this menu. 29. Shift + Right-click on grouped icon : Menu with Restore All / Minimize All / Close All, etc. 30. Ctrl + Click on grouped icon : Cycle between the windows (or tabs) in the group Though some of them are there in previous versions of Windows, Windows 7 has incorporated many of them and have started many afresh.
