Keyboard shortcuts and Sticky keys for Windows
Keyboard shortcuts for Windows
Many times I used to
struggle finding the right shortcuts on the keyboard without using mouse. I did
some research and figured a few important shortcuts that would be useful on a
regular basis. Hope you will find them useful.
NOTE: These shortcuts are only applicable in a windows
computer.

Sticky Keys-
Sticky Keys is an accessibility feature of some graphical
user interfaces to assist users who have physical disabilities. It serializes
keystrokes instead of pressing multiple keys at a time, allowing the user to
press and release a modifier key, such as Shift, Ctrl, Alt, or the Windows key,
and have it remain active until any other key is pressed.
