Ctrl+backspace deletes the previous word. Now if I could just form the muscle memory.
Since we’re talking about Windows:
WinKey+.to open up the secret emoji/symbols toolbox. 🫛
I’m the Hackerman of my workplace by using shift+tab to jump one cell to the left in Excel.
tab --> cell to the right ist selected (next cell)
shift+tab --> cell to the left is selected (previous cell)
This is a standard shortcut and works most places where Tab works. Forms, buttons, etc.
Is this generational? I’m a millennial, 38 years old. I don’t know about most of these short cuts. I’m a mechanic, I use computers at work but mostly proprietary programs. I don’t use my computer at home except for bill paying or something else the necessitates using it.
Sort of, but of certainly not universal. I use common keyboard shortcuts all the time, but don’t know what the one OP was taking about was before just now.
But, older folks seem to never, ever use things like Ctrl+C or Ctrl+P, which drives me crazy. But I’ve also seen people in the last few years who double click links on websites, and aren’t retired yet.
Ultimately, YMMV.
Windows users: Press ctrl + alt + shift + windows key + L. Go on, try it.
