Keyboard shortcuts are keys or combinations of keys that provide another way to do something that you’d typically do with a mouse.
The following are common keyboard shortcuts in many of the Microsoft apps that come with Windows 10Â and Windows 11. This includes shortcuts for:
In many of these apps, shortcuts are also shown in a tooltip if you hold the mouse pointer over a button. In others, pressing the Alt or F10 keys shows available keyboard shortcuts. If a letter is underlined in a menu, press the Altkey and the underlined key together instead of choosing that menu item. For example, to create a new picture in Paint, press Ctrl + N.Â
Note:Â With a touch keyboard, you'll need to press the Ctrl key to view some shortcuts.
