I am sure most people might know of these shortcuts, but some of them I wasn't aware of until someone showed me at work the other day. Here is a list of Shortcuts that use the Windows Key as the anchor.
I hope people find these useful, I found the Windows + E one of the most useful ones and use it almost all the time. |

| Windows key + e and Windows key + d are second only to ctrl + c and ctrl + v for me. |

Windows + R is the most useful keystroke of the bunch!
They should have a single keystroke which just brings up a command window. :) |

Unless I'm missing it, they left out WinKey-Tab, which sends you down to the taskbar and lets you use the arrow keys to navigate between open apps. When you've got a ton of 'em open, this is often easier than ALT-TABbing through scads of apps.
Also, if you're a keyboard shortcut-junkie like me, you _really_ need to check out Dave's Quick Search Deskbar utility. Seriously, it's saved me so much time, it's totally free, and you can easily contribute and add your own items to it. You'll find yourself WinKey-S 'ing as much as you do any of these other commands once you do. See it at http://www.dqsd.net . |
