While most of us are familiar with the usual Windows 8 keyboard shortcuts there are some useful Win+X keyboard shortcuts too – which not many of us may be familiar with. I am listing below some useful Win+X keyboard shortcuts, which I have been able to find.
Win+X Menu keyboard shortcuts
Open elevated CMD using Win+X keyboard shortcut
Press Win+X and A at the same time, from the Desktop and an elevated command prompt window will open. Sure, you can always press Win+X or move the mouse pointer to the bottom left corner to open the WinX Menu , and then select Command Prompt (Admin) – but using these keys is faster.
Open Computer Management
Press Win+X, G and Computer Management window will open.
Open Search from Desktop
Pressing together Win+X, S on the desktop will open Search in Windows 8.
Open Control Panel System Properties
If you press Win+X, Y, the Control Panel System Properties will open.
Pressing Win+X R opened Run box, Win+X D opened Desktop, Win+X E opened the Explorer – there were many such – but then you can simply use Win+R, Win+D, Wind+D, etc, respectively instead, to open the same.
