Windows Keyboard Shortcuts

ISerializable pointed out this link to a great list of Windows keyboard shortcuts. I always like to read about keyboard shortcuts, even if I know most of them. Finding even one new shortcut makes it worth the time.

I wasn't let down this time.

F6
switch between folder and file panes in Explorer (Windows Explorer)

ALT + ESC
focus the next window in the open window list

CTRL + S in Windows Mixer to compactify. Cool! That's one I'll definitely use.

I also re-remembered:
WIN + E to open Explorer. Keep forgetting that one.
WIN + BREAK to open Windows System Properties

Some cool Internet Explorer Shortcuts that I didn't know about:
SHIFT + SPACE
scroll up one page (Internet Explorer)

SHIFT + WHEEL-ROTATE
navigate forward & back (same as forward and back buttons)

CTRL + WHEEL-ROTATE
change default font viewing size (ignored if page uses style sheets)
