Best Keyboard shortcuts For Your System

Getting used to using your keyboard exclusively and leaving your mouse behind will make you much more efficient at performing any task on any Windows system. I use the following keyboard shortcuts every day:

Windows key + R = Run menu

This is usually followed by:
cmd = Command Prompt
iexplore + "web address" = Internet Explorer
compmgmt.msc = Computer Management
dhcpmgmt.msc = DHCP Management
dnsmgmt.msc = DNS Management
services.msc = Services
eventvwr = Event Viewer
dsa.msc = Active Directory Users and Computers
dssite.msc = Active Directory Sites and Services
Windows key + E = Explorer

ALT + Tab = Switch between windows

ALT, Space, X = Maximize window

CTRL + Shift + Esc = Task Manager

Windows key + Break = System properties

Windows key + F = Search

Windows key + D = Hide/Display all windows

CTRL + C = copy

CTRL + X = cut

CTRL + V = paste

Also don't forget about the "Right-click" key next to the right Windows key on your keyboard. Using the arrows and that key can get just about anything done once you've opened up any program.

How to Navigate Tabs from Keyboard

Usually the most used and arguably the most important feature of Firefox is tabs so much so that Microsoft was forced to imitate it in IE 7. Suppose you are surfing a number of websites at a time, but to navigate between them you would normally use a mouse to switch between tabs. Not any more. Here are some cool tab navigation techniques using just your keyboard:

* Ctrl+Tab (rotate forward among tabs; when it reaches the last tab, it moves forward to the first tab)
* Ctrl+Shft+Tab (rotate to the previous tab; similar to above, Ctrl-Shift-Tab from first tab will take you to the last tab)
* Ctrl+1-9 (choose a tab to jump to by number)

Shortcut keys For Google Chrome

Like GMail Chrome allows really useful shortcuts. Some of my favorites are:

1. You can drag a link between tabs to open the link in a new tab in the specified position on the tab strip.
2. Ctrl1-8 allows you to switch tabs by tab position on the strip. Ctrl-9 switched to the last tab.
3. Like Firefox you can drag the tab to a different position in the tab strip, the UI is smoother.
4. Use Ctrl-Shift-T to reopen the last closed tab. Chrome remembers last 10 closed tabs.
5. Many Firefox and windows shortcuts work as expected like Alt-F4 to close current windows, use Ctrl-w to close current tab, Ctrl-Tab to switch to next tab, Ctrl-Shift-Tab to switch to previous tab etc.

Two hidden features in Chrome:

1. Type about:plugins in browser bar to get list of plugins
2. Type about:chrome to get detailed version information and user agent string.
