Recommendations

I recommend to check Windows Keyboard shortcuts to find default keybindings in Windows. You can modify them or add custom ones using Keyboard Manager utility in PowerToys.

  • ctrl+` - ctrl+shift+tab shortcut
  • win+w - ctrl+alt+d shortcut (show/hide Dock)
  • ctrl+alt+f - F11 shortcut (full screen)
  • win+s - win+shift+s shortcut (Snipping Tool)
  • win+shift+s - win+prtsc shortcut (screenshot)
