Whats your Fav Hotkey / Shortcut to use - cyberchron - 06-17-2020
Mine I just found out a couple months ago.
When you have a folder open you can type "cmd" into the area where it shows the dir.
This will open up a command prompt window to that cd.
pretty dope.
Because manually typing that can sometimes be a bit crazy.
Whats your?

That aside, my favorite shortcut Is the good old Ctrl C & Ctrl V (copy & paste). I use It each and every day when writing tutorials/guides.

Ctrl-Shift-T to open the last tab you closed in your browser.

There's another shortcut that I stumbled across whilst attempting to open my browser's bookmarks. When "quoting" a post (as I did here), hitting Ctrl + B Inserts the bold tags.

CTL + T is something i probably use about 400 times a day.
I'm allllll about the tabs if you want a 3 hit combo.
CTL+c ( Copy) CTL+t(new tab) Ctl+v(paste)
over and over and over again lmao. research is an endless rabbithole of copies and pastes
I also found out highlight the stuff you copy and just right clicking theres just a search option right there which saved me a bunch of hotkeys

If you'd like to close the browser tab you're currently In, hit Ctrl + W.

Holding Down CTL and clicking links will also open them in a new tab. i hate those pesky links that don't open in new tab and you lose your page
RE: Whats your Fav Hotkey / Shortcut to use - bruhmoment52 - 08-01-2020
scroll wheel click to open things in new tabs.
