10 More Keyboard Shortcuts Everyone Should Know
Using keyboard shortcuts can often cut the time it takes to do something on a computer in half. Below are our top 10 keyboard shortcuts we recommend everyone memorize and use.
01.) Ctrl + C or Ctrl + Insert
Copy the highlighted text or selected item.
02.) Ctrl + V or Shift + Insert
Paste the text or object that’s in the clipboard.(Sometimes improperly referred to as the pasteboard, the clipboard is the location in a computer operating system such as Microsoft Windows that stores information that has been cut or copied from a document or other location. The clipboard will hold this information until it has been overwritten by new information. For example, a user may copy information from a word processor and paste that information into an e-mail message.)
03.) Ctrl + Z and Ctrl + Y
Undo any change. For example, if you cut text, pressing this will undo it. This can also often be pressed multiple times to undo multiple changes. Pressing Ctrl + Y would re-do the undo.
04.) Ctrl + F (I tend to use this one a bit too much sometimes, lol)
Open the Find in any program. This includes your Internet browser to find text on the current page.
05.) Alt + Tab or Alt + Esc
Quickly switch between open programs.
06.) F1
Open help for the program you’re in.
07.) Ctrl + P
Print what’s currently being viewed in programs such as Microsoft Word or your Internet browser.

09.) Ctrl + Home / End10.) Page Up / Space bar and Page Down
Pressing either the page up or page down key will move that page one page at a time in that direction. When browsing the Internet pressing the space bar will also move the page down one page at a time.
