Jump straight to the Task Manager
The Ctrl + Alt + Del key combination is probably one of the best known and longest-lived shortcuts in Windows, taking you directly to the Security screen. Many people head here when they want to open the Task Manager, typically to kill an unresponsive application. But you can cut out the middleman by pressing Ctrl + Shift + Esc to launch the Task Manager. While these are some of the most useful shortcuts in Windows, they’re by no means the only ones – head to
