Computers and tricks

What’s the most useful keyboard shortcut you use daily? How does it make work easier for you?
I remember it was so hard for me to take a screenshot using my laptop.

When browsing the web I use Ctrl+W to close the current tab and find that very convenient.

If I accidentally close a tab, I use Ctrl + Shift + T to open it again, which is much easier than searching for it in history or any other way.

CTRL+C and CTRL+V. Especially copy since now when you select text, you get many other suggestions like search, use A.I, ... but latest is copy.

Snipping Tool is one the best tools Microsoft could invent it. It save a lot of time since we don't have to edit full screenshots PRT SC (print screen)

Ctrl + Shift + T - wow ! That is something wonderful I have learnt.

I often use Ctrl+Home to go to the top of a document
Or Ctrl + End to go to the bottom most point.

I see that many folks just keep on scrolling to reach the end and very few use Ctrl+End.

Thanks. This is certainly something new that I learned today. I generally tend to forget shortcuts while using keyboard and end up wasting a lot of time.
