- Windows + X – Opens the Quick Link menu (for settings, device manager, etc.)
- Windows + Shift + S – Takes a snip of your screen (great for screenshots).
- Windows + V – Opens the clipboard history.
- Ctrl + Shift + Esc – Opens Task Manager directly.
- Windows + Ctrl + D – Creates a new virtual desktop.
