Multimedia Keyboard Shortcuts

Keyboard shortcuts are one of the fastest ways to perform actions and commands.
Your XP has several shortcuts. You probably know some, like Ctrl+C (copy) and Ctrl+V (paste), but are you aware of the more advanced commands such as minimizing all windows (WinKey+M or WinKey+D) when you need something from your desktop, or Winkey+E when you need to open My Computer fast?
Here are some of the shortcuts you are likely to need:
Delete- Del (Note: to permanently delete a selected item, press Ctrl+Del.)
Copy – Ctrl+C
Cut – Ctrl+X
Paste – Ctrl+V
Undo – Ctrl+Z
Redo – Ctrl+Y
Select all – Ctrl+A
Search – F3
Open START menu – Ctrl+Esc
Refresh – F5
Help – F1
Show desktop – WinKey+D
Minimize all windows WinKey+M
Switch users (or lock computer if you are connected to a network) – WinKey+L
show the system properties – WinKey + Pause/Break
