Unless you’re rocking a touchscreen PC, navigating your way around the Metro UI interface (and its horizontal-friendly apps) can be a bit of a drag. So don’t use your mouse; Use your keyboard. Check out some of these helpful hotkeys for flying through the OS and controlling its many elements:
· Windows Key + Tab – Opens up the left-hand “Switch List”
· Windows Key + C – Opens up the right-hand Charms Bar
· Windows Key + I – Opens up your ever-important Settings Menu
· Windows Key + T – Dumps you back to Desktop Mode and cycles through your open windows on the taskbar.
· Windows Key + Shift + . – Docks the app to the left, middle, or right side of the screen with each press.
· Windows Key + M – Jumps to the Desktop and minimizes all applications
· Windows Key + Q – Opens up Windows 8’s global search utility within Metro.
