This week’s tech tip was all about keyboard shortcuts.

Suppose you’re working on a really complex project in Photo, or typing up a really long essay in the library, and you need to leave the computer. There’s a simple solution. Hold down the “Windows” key, and hit L, and your computer will “lock”, which will require you to put in your password to unlock it. This way, nobody can mess with it! The “Windows” key can do lots of other things: pressing “Windows” and D will minimize everything and take you through the desktop, and Windows-F will open a file search window.

For more like these, take a look at http://www.seoconsultants.com/windows/key/… it’s where I found the ones I didn’t know!
