Oh no, just what you were afraid of - a quiz. Yeah, you thought you were done with quizzes when you graduated from school. But this quiz should be more fun than the quizzes you had in school. And you may learn some new shortcuts.
Almost everyone knows CTRL-C, CTRL-V and CTRL-Z. But how many people know that there are dozens of keyboard shortcuts in Windows, browsers and Windows-based applications? Browsers alone have well over 80 shortcuts. If you are a regular reader of the PC tip of the day articles you've learned a lot of shortcuts.
Not just a quiz, this article shows you different ways to use two or more shortcuts together (shortcut groups) to accomplish things. Each of the shortcut groups below accomplish two or more related operations. Each group gives you a context where the shortcuts work. For example, the shortcuts in Group 1 are used in a browser.
