Staying productive is challenging enough sometimes, whether you work remotely or are back in-office. While notifications are useful in some cases, sometimes you just want your computer to keep quiet. This is why Windows 10 includes the Focus assist feature, allowing you to block all or some notifications when you need to concentrate or share your screen with others.
At Fulcrum Group, we feel it is important to regularly revisit security settings on all of your devices (not only work-related) as a general cybersecurity best practice. When your security is tight all over, you provide less opportunities all around for an inadvertent breach to occur.
Did you know that Windows 10 has MANY keyboard shortcuts? Which ones do you use day to day?
Some of my favs I use daily include perhaps the most well-known:
Ctrl+X - Cut
Ctrl+C - Copy
Ctrl+Y - Paste
But also:
Ctrl+Z - Undo
Ctrl+Y - Redo
Ctrl+A - Select All
Alt+Tab - switch between open windows
F5 - Refresh the screen
and
the PrtScn button - take a screenshot of your whole screen and copy it to the clipboard
Go ahead and try some new ones from this article from Microsoft and you'll be commanding that keyboard like a tech-savvy teenager in no time!
