Use KeyRocket to become a master of keyboard shortcuts

Use of keyboard shortcuts can incredibly improve your productivity but it’s difficult to find all the keyboard shortcuts at one place and remember all of them at once. KeyRocket helps you to learn new shortcuts as you do your work. For example if you are working in Word and using your mouse every time when you need to make some text bold. It will notice and suggest you the keyboard shortcut for this. 

It also allows you to search shortcuts. Suppose you remember a shortcut combination but don’t know what is it used for, you can use KeyRocket’s library to search shortcuts. KeyRocket silently sits in the background and will suggest you through notifications whenever it has any suggestion. Currently it has shortcut suggestions for Windows Explorer and Microsoft Office suite. 

It supports Windows XP, Vista and Windows 7 operating systems. You can download it using the link given below.

Create your own shortcut keys

Create your own shortcut keys
Here at Worldstart we love to tell you about keyboard shortcuts, but today we're going to switch it up and just tell you how create your own key combinations to open programs. Sounds cool, no?

So do this:
Right-Click on a program that you want to create a shortcut key combination for and select “Properties”.

Make sure you're under the Shortcut tab and put your mouse cursor in the box next to “Shortcut key”.



Now choose any combination using the Ctrl, Alt, and/or Shift keys plus an alphanumeric keyboard character and click Apply.

So, For example; if I want to open Photoshop, I would input something like “Ctrl+Shift+P” as my key combination. Now whenever I press it, Photoshop will open for me!

Be careful, though, because some key combinations may already be spoken for! If that's the case, just try something different!
