We use many shortcut keys instead of using mouse because we find it more convenient and as it needs less pressure on the shoulder. Most of us are aware of basic shortcut keys like ctrl + c for copy, ctrl + v for paste, ctrl + z for undo, ctrl + x for cut, ctrl + y for redo and so on. Instead of doing right click and selecting the desired option, we prefer using keyboard shortcuts. So why not we use these kind of keyboard shortcuts for opening desktop applications? Here, you will get to know about creating and using the keyboard shortcuts by ourselves.

1. Right click on the application you want to create a shortcut for. You will find many options and out of them, click on ‘Properties’.
2. Now, you will be able to see a small window which has many options like ‘General’, ‘Shortcut’, ‘Compatibility’, ‘Security’ and ‘Details’. Go to ‘Shortcut’.
3. Here, you can see a box named ‘Shortcut key’ with ‘none’ assigned to it (when you didn’t use this till date). Now put the pointer in that field and press the combination of keys that you want to assign. Usually you will not be able to assign the complete shortcut because there are already some pre fixed shortcuts which can’t be replaced. So, you can just type an alphabet which will rewrite automatically to ‘ctrl + alt + alphabet’.
4. That’s it, now click on apply and close the tab. You have done all that is needed. Now try to open that particular application for which you have created the shortcut. Press the combination keys assigned as a shortcut to the application. You will now be able to see that the required application got opened.
