Hello. This is Gerry Chevalier from the GTT Edmonton Chapter. This weekly
blog provides tips that I find useful as a keyboard user of Windows. The
information is for Windows10 and Office 365, although many tips still apply
to older versions.  The tips do not require a screen reader unless
specifically noted. Thus, the tips apply whether you are a keyboard user or
low vision mouse user. Here is this week's tip.

Windows from the Keyboard - General Shortcuts

When progressive vision loss makes it increasingly difficult to see the
mouse or read the screen you can use Windows without a mouse. You can
operate most Windows programs such as Word, Excel, email, and web browsing
without using the mouse. Did you know that the TAB key will move from link
to link in a web page or from item to item in a web form or from field to
field in an email? Once you navigate to an item you can activate it without
clicking the mouse. Just press the Enter key.

Here are some other handy Windows keyboard shortcuts:

·       Control+Backspace will delete the previous word while typing in
an edit field or document.

·       Control+Delete key will delete the next word while typing in an
edit field or document.

Control+S will save your document.

·       Control+P will print your document.

·       Control+C will copy selected text, files, or folders to the
clipboard.

·       Control+V will paste clipboard text into a document or email.
Also, Control+V will paste files or folders that have been copied to the
clipboard into another location.

·       Alt+F4 will close a window.

·       Alt+F4 while focused on the desktop will bring up the Windows
shutdown menu.

·       Pressing TAB multiple times while on the Desktop will move to the
Start button, then to the Task Bar, then to the Notifications area, then
back to the Desktop. While in the Notifications area you can press down
arrow to cycle through the System Tray icons.

·       Alt+Tab will cycle between open windows.

·       Windows key + M will minimize all open windows and return to the
desktop.

·       While on the desktop, press the first letter of any icon to jump
to it. Press Enter to activate the icon.

·       The Applications key beside the right control key is very
important in Windows so much so that it will be discussed in a separate
tip.

·       Here is Microsoft's 
<https://support.microsoft.com/en-ca/help/12445> Windows 10 Complete List
of shortcuts.

That's it for this tip. Until next Wednesday, happy computing.
