Inbox zero with two keystrokes. Whoever implemented that, I'd like to buy a coffee someday.
(Also, I discovered this because I use Ctrl+Shift+ESC instead of Ctrl+Alt+Del to bring up the Windows Task Manager immediately without going through the intermediary screen that pops up, and one day, I missed Ctrl.)
- stanlarroque 8y agoAnd I'd like to buy you a coffee someday for teaching me about the Ctrl+Shift+ESC shortcut.
- drather19 8y agoMake that two coffees!
- nkantar 8y agoAt least three. Or other beverages, really!
- CiPHPerCoder 8y agoHappy to help. If anyone's going to DEFCON this year, I'll be hanging around the Crypto & Privacy Village a lot, so feel free to say hi.
- SaltyBackendGuy 8y agoThis, seriously, just changed my life.
- dvlsg 8y agoI remember running into a few viruses floating around that (among other wonderful behaviors) disabled the ctrl+alt+del shortcut to try to prevent you from getting to the task manager. Often ctrl+shift+esc still worked, though.
- dewiz 8y agoWasn’t the Windows Start menu shortcut Ctrl+ESC?
- giancarlostoro 8y agoHad no idea there was another shortcut other than the Windows key, confirmed it works on Windows 10.
- dewiz 8y agoYes, ctrl-esc was the original shortcut since 3.x, and when there was no Win key yet
- nunez 8y agoHoly shit; I did not know that. Thank you!
