Few weeks back, we published a post about the Windows 7 God Mode and today we are sharing few shortcut keys every Windows 7 must know about.I am one of the many windows user who tend to use windows shortcut keys instead of mouse, as it seems a bit faster and reliable to me rather than using a mouse. Here is the list of Windows 7 shortcut keys that I prefer and every Windows 7 user must know about:

Alt + P

This shortcut key activates a preview pane in the Windows explorer very useful for previewing the selected file. This pane previews everything, be it an image, video, text or even an audio file. The pane is great for previewing wallpapers and images saving you from using any third party fancy software.

Windows + E

This shortcut key opens up a new Explorer window to show your Library folders, by default the My Computer Window pops up.

Windows + P

This shortcut key opens a small overlay that enables you to configure a second display to setup a projector or a duplicate screen. Using it you can switch from a single monitor to a dual display system too.

Windows + Home

This shortcut minimizes every open window on your desktop except the active window. Pressing this shortcut again restores all the minimized windows.

Windows + R

This Windows 7 shortcut key is a handy one. Like many other nerds out there, I am the one who need to use the Run dialog box frequently. Windows + R shortcut key pops out the Run dialog box.

Windows + T

This shortcut key works like the all time favorite “Alt+Tab” key, the difference is that Windows + T cycles through thumbnails of your open programs via the Taskbar’s peek menu.

Windows + “+” and Windows + “-”

Pressing the Windows button with either the plus or minus key activates the Magnifier, letting you zoom in on the entire desktop or open a rectangular magnifying lens to zoom in on (and out of) parts of your screen.

Windows + Up and Windows + Down

If a window isn’t maximized, pressing the Windows + Up arrow key will make it fill your entire screen. Windows + Down arrow will minimize that active window.

These are the Windows 7 Shortcut Keys that I frequently use, and are handy enough to count in.

Thanx to NiharsWorld, I got a complete list of  Windows 7 shortcut keys which you can check below:

Talking about Windows 7, always make one think about the extensive new features and the awesome design of Windows with new styles and themes.

As the Title indicates, here I am going to write about one fantastic feature available in Windows 7 with the name “GodMode”.

What is GodMode ?

GodMode is basically a content folder consisting nearly all settings and modding options (Control Panel Options, Windows Settings Options, Performance Options, Display, Gadgets and much more other options). In total it allows you to perform 283 settings/modding actions.

Take a look at the screenshot I snapped from my GodMode:

GodMode can be created by adding a special set of characters to the folder name.

How To Enable GodMode in Windows 7 ?

To Enable GodMode in your Windows 7 system, all you need to do is to follow these simple steps:

• Create a New folder anywhere on your computer and name it as “GodMode”.
• Rename the folder again by adding “.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}” ahead of “GodMode”
• The folder name must look like “GodMode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}“
• Hit Enter(Save it) with the above name, and you will have a new folder with name “GodModeGodMode” with a special icon :
  



• That’s it. Now you can enjoy your GodMode Content Folder!

The MSDN Library consist of many other canonical codes like “{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}”, that could be used for generating such more folders on your system.
