Ctrl shortcuts

[KingStyles]

I accidentally discovered today that by hitting Ctrl and the - or + key magnifies or reduces the size of the page. Could be useful to someone who thinks the print is too big or small. Since the change to the new format I have found lots of useful Ctrl shortcuts. Just wondering of anybody uses the Ctrl shortcuts on a regular basis.

Is that an invincibility cheat or something?
 
I'll use ctrl+x, ctrl+c, and ctrl+v a lot. For most stuff I just use right-click.
 
I use alt+F4 a lot, too. Try it, it's really handy.

I'm surprised people are still uncovering these little tricks. You learn something new every day huh. 
 
The ones that gets the most use from me are Ctrl + Enter (adds the www. and .com to the URL) and Ctrl + T.

[shift]+[delete]  permanently deletes the file, skipping over the recycle bin
[alt]+double-click  displays properties
 
My personal favorites are the Windows key shortcuts.
[windows]+[m]  minimizes all open windows
[shift]+[windows]+[m]  undo minize all
[windows]+[e]  opens windows explorer
[windows]+[r]  opens the run command

alt + print screen <-- takes screenshot of only the active window
windows + pause/break <-- opens up system properties

Ctrl+F: search bar in the browser, use it often.
 
Ctrl+W: closes tab in browser, although I don't use it a lot since I found the add-on FireGestures (<- extremely useful tool).
Ctrl+T: new tab in browser, but same as above.
 
Windows+L: locks computer to login screen while keeping programs active (torrents etc.), handy if you're going away for a while but need to download or something.

Cmd + a, c, v, x, +, -, ... works great as well.
I use it all the time!

Heheheh, that is a very lopsided triforce (I think) when displayed on my phone. Probably on my deskop too, methinks you forgot to hit enter.
 
EDIT: Nope, it works on my computer. Darn.
