    Display Switch Shortcut - Create[2]=Shortcuts
    I had no idea about this trick. Cute! Thank you!

    I still believe it is 100% exactly just a "shortcut" method to exactly the same four options shown on the "display resolution" screen (from right-click on desktop, select "display resolution" from the popup menu). And it looks neat.

    Results are almost surely 100% identical as using the full "display resolution" screen from standard Win7.

    Yes, its the same options, just a different ways to get there. They all accomplish the same thing. I like the shortcuts because its only one click to do it. I have one for shutdown too.

    Simple way , no special key


    Right-click an empty area of the task bar, and select "Show the desktop", now right-click the task bar again and select "Show open windows"
