Free Computer Tips, Learning From Someone Else's Mistakes Is Easier

If you would like to share free computer tips that no one else knows about, share them here. Whether its a way to make Windows boot faster, or get a faster overclock.

Remember, some things you take for granted, other people would love to learn how to do easily.

You are also welcome to share any tricks you have learned.  Have you found a great shortcut to make your life easier?

This page is started because I know for myself, when I help someone on the computer, I frequently get asked, what I just did.  Or how did you do that?  I take way too much for granted.  This is a place where people that are still learning new tricks on the computer weekly can share these tricks with people just starting out.

I still remember how excited I was when I realized Window Key + D will get you to the desktop on a computer.  I know it sounds silly, but the little things really make the computer experience everything it can be.
