Small knowledge, big challenge! This article is participating in the creation activity of “Essential Tips for Programmers”.

1. Introduction

After using Linux distribution as the main system, I have the symptom that I don’t want to move the mouse unless I have to, brothers, am I normal?

It’s not a joke, really. On Linux distributions, especially Manjaro Kde, you can customize a shortcut key for anything and fly without clicking a mouse, and you can remember Ma’s voice in your head: “Take off, Feifei!”

After returning to Windows 10, I was desperate to define shortcuts for all sorts of actions. I never quite recovered that feeling, but along the way, I found a few tricks to make things more efficient


2. Customize shortcut keysOpen the software

Suppose we want to start wechat cold

The first step is to find the file location of wechat’s Start menu shortcut


Second, open the file properties of the shortcut icon


Step 3, set a shortcut key and hit Apply


The fourth step is to set the property to read-only to prevent the icon from being updated or overwritten and causing the shortcut key to become invalid


Fifth step, directly press the shortcut key to cold start wechat


3. Open special websites with one click

Start by creating a web shortcut

Then repeat the steps in section 2


But!! But!!

Some people prepare a browser to visit Bilibili, Acfun and other video sites. For example, one of my friends uses Firefox as his default browser and Uses Chrome to watch videos. It is said to be convenient for managing history

What if we add the Chorme directory to the environment variable and then type in the cryptic code when creating the shortcut

And in your skilled application of Alt + F4, you can rest assured to see the dance area of the little sister! And there is no conflict with the default browser


4. Write in the back

Do you need to find the icon or search it and double click it? If you open the software 20 times a day, it will save 40 seconds a day, and 2400 seconds a month, that is 40 minutes…

According to the theorem that time is life, I am saving your life!

So the question is, how did I get to +51.9%?
