What is shortcuts
n computing, a keyboard shortcut is a set of one or more keys that invoke a command in software or an operating system.
They are typically an alternate means for invoking commands that would otherwise be accessible only through a menu, a mouse, or an aspect of the user interface. These shortcuts can expedite common operations by reducing input sequences to a few keystrokes.
These shortcuts can provide an easier and quicker method of using computer programs. These commands are commonly accessed by using the Alt key (on PC computers), command key (on Apple computers), Ctrl, and Shift in conjunction with a single letter.
These shortcuts are for the following programs and applications
