I love keyboard shortcuts. Using a combination of two or more keys that, when pressed, can be used to perform a task that would typically require a mouse or other pointing device saves me time and effort both in Windows and other programs.

Here are some of my favorite Windows 7 shortcuts that you may not be familiar with that are great time savers. For a complete list of all shortcuts, check out this page here: Keyboard shortcuts

Windows logo key +T

Cycle through programs on the taskbar

Windows logo key +Spacebar

Preview the desktop

Windows logo key +X

Open Windows Mobility Center

Windows logo key +P

Choose a presentation display mode

Shift+Windows logo key +number

Start a new instance of the program pinned to the taskbar in the position indicated by the number

Alt+Windows logo key +number

Open the Jump List for the program pinned to the taskbar in the position indicated by the number

Shift+Windows logo key +number

Switch to the last active window of the program pinned to the taskbar in the position indicated by the number
