WINDOWS 8 | KEYBOARD SHORTCUTS


Alt-Tab - flexibility to jump to another app while the current app is still on background.
Windows + C -> Charm menu, as does hovering over the lower-left hand corner of the screen
Windows + F brings up the Search screen, though simply typing (when on the Start screen) is more convenient

Windows + Z in a fullscreen app brings up the contextual menus
Windows + D takes you to the desktop
Windows + L locks the PC, invoking the lock screen
Windows + P pulls up multi-monitor settings
Windows + I brings up the Settings charm
Windows + E invokes Windows Explorer, as ever
Windows + R brings up the Run prompt
Windows + Y makes all your open windows (and the Metro UI) transparent, so you can see the desktop beneath
Windows + X shows Windows Mobility Center, which appears to serve much the same role as the Settings charm but on the desktop instead
The Scroll wheel pans across Start screen, slowly
Right-click brings up contextual menus in a full screen app
Left-click on the Start screen brings up options to unpin, resize and uninstall apps
Ctrl-Alt-Delete summons a screen with options to shut down, switch users, log off or quickly open the Task Manager
