Hot Key to Minimize All Windows

How to create a hot key that will minimize all windows at once, instead of having to right click the taskbar and clicking the "show the desktop" command. There are lots of ways you can do this, but the easiest way is to use the Windows key on your keyboard. Just press the Windows key and then, at the same time, press the D key on the keyboard. That will minimize all windows. Do it again to restore your windows. :eek:

Don't you just love keyboard shortcuts?? :)

My favorites are Windows Key + E to bring up Explorer and Windows Key + R to bring up the Run Command box.

Windows Key + M minimizes all windows but I like Valveman's shortcut better. Windows + L goes to the fast user switching screen (for the home users) in XP land.

Or you could just click on the desktop icon on the quickstart bar of any 98 or better machine. Y'know, that little button right beside the start button? Try it.

Hmm....

Those keys shouldn't exist :)

We had a dude at work get fired because he was looking at porn. We could tell because he was using these kinds of key combo's everytime someone would walk up to his desk.

Glad he got fired ;)

If this guy was looking at porn at work he deserved to get fired!

Choices are given to everyone everyday.

The choices we make shows what is really in our hearts!
