You can also assign your own keyboard shortcuts to programs you use often. We assume that there’s already a shortcut to this program in the Start Menu or on your desktop. In order to create a keyboard short cut for the shortcut icons for different programs..
-
Right-click on that shortcut and choose Properties.
-
In the dialog box, click in the Shortcut Key text box and press your shortcut combination.
-
You can use [Ctrl], [Alt] and [Shift] in your shortcut, but unfortunately not the Windows key.
-
If you’re going to use [Ctrl] + [Alt], you don’t even need to press them.
-
Windows adds the combination before your shortcut key, so if you hit, say, [3], your shortcut automatically becomes [Ctrl] + [Alt] + [3].
