    Lots of my friends are amazed that I use the keyboard instead of the mouse, don’t we all?

    Windows offers lots of shortcuts which are great for saving time, but do we all know about them?

    Here is my top ten Keyboard shortcuts.

    Feel free to post yours.

    Thanks Brian

    I use normal keyboard shortcuts like ctrl+c,ctrl_v,ctrl+x,ctrl+b,ctrl+a,windows+d etc..
    It is far better than using mouse.

    once my friend got only 1 mouse and he has to use that for my laptop and I have to go on his desktop to use internet
    I simply navigate without mouse just by keyboard and he was pretty amazed. (I was faster than him actually clicking icons with moouse to acess )

    Key board short cuts offer a lot of scope and they help in preventing your hands getting injured because of the frequent mouse use. I use ctrl + C and ctrl + V for copy and paste, Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart a stubborn pc. There are more short cuts I use apart from the ones listed above...
