FeaturesKnow Your Common Shortcuts on
Reinvent the Windows Wheel

I'm startled to see that one very useful shortcut; Windows Key+E, which opens Windows Explorer, was omitted from the list of productive shortcuts. I use this shortcut many times daily and am always amazed at the number of my users who don't know about it. Your list of shortcuts puzzles me in other ways; why is something as mundane, (but is useful) as Shift+Tab included, while Win Key+E is not? Note: Windows Key alone will bring up the Start menu, and Windows Key+D = Desktop; another way to minimize all windows, bringing you directly to your desktop. Good job, Paul! The world can be a better place now that more people know these important shortcuts - I'm just surprised, being in such awe of Maximum PC, that you missed the shortcut to Windows Explorer.
