In this article I am going to tell you about the windows 7 shortcuts. Not all the shortcuts of Windows 7 are discussed here. Important shortcuts that u need to know are given here. These shortcuts will be used by you often.

The following tips will help you to speed up the way you use Windows, making it easier and quicker.The first thing is to make your programs more accessible. The Start menu and desktop may be convenient, but there is an even quicker way to access programs, and that is the task bar.

The task bar works slightly differently and better in Windows 7. The simplest way is to place a program shortcut on the task bar is to open it and then right click the icon that appears in the task bar and choose Pin this program to task bar. When you come to launch a program, right click it to reveal its Jump List, a list of shortcuts to recently opened files as well as other useful tools.
