How to make keyboard shortcuts
« on: December 15, 2014, 01:58:18 am »

Is there some way in which I can customize my computer in such a way that I can make keyboard shortcuts to open programs from the desktop.
I find it useful that pressing windows+E opens up "My Computer" but I'd like to be able to open up other things with key combinations.

Does windows 8 have this type of feature?

I know it existed in XP, so there's a reasonable chance they carried it through...

Googled that for you, squid.

I honestly should be face palming right now. I don't know how I could possibly forget to check Google. That is like my go to source of all knowledge. I think it was because I was already here and thinking about it at the same time so I simply asked without thinking.
