The magical uses of the WIN7 system Shift key

The "Shift" key is just one of our 107 keys, most people know about it, I am afraid it is just the switch in the input method of the case. But in fact its function is not to switch case so simple, in our Windows 7, the SHIFT key has been given more "magical" features. Don't believe it? Let's take a look at it in turn.

1. "Super" sent to

"Send To" is used every day, and in general this menu has only a few items. But when we hold down the SHIFT key and click "Send To" again ... the magical thing happens! There are so many things in the menu, such as music, Pictures, videos, links, contacts, Favorites ... you can think of a system folder that can be found almost anywhere. It's not enough to complain about this time.

2. Open Command Window here

How do I quickly open a folder on the command line? Manual input--too slow! Copy and paste--too much trouble!

In fact, one of the easiest ways to Win7 is to hold down the SHIFT key and right-click the target folder. Under normal circumstances, you will find an extra "open command Window Here" in the right button menu. Yes, that's it, the rest of the thing I don't need to say more.

3. Run as Administrator

It is well known that some programs require administrator privileges at run time. Normally, we need to right-click the program icon and select "Run as Administrator" to execute. Of course, this is not the easiest way, there is a trick is to hold down ctrl+shift+ double-click, the Effect and the right menu is exactly the same. Go and try it, like a fake!

4. One-click to generate a new window

What would you do if you wanted to create a new program window? " File "→ New"? That's right! This is a good way to try, but it does not apply to individual programs (such as "Notepad"). So...... Try this one, hold down SHIFT and click the program icon on the taskbar. The ok! effect came out.

Of course, if you still do not understand what I said, then this screenshot will give you the answer!
