Do You Know The Ctrl+Enter Trick?

 

Hello everyone,
Today a great tip comes from guest blogger Jorge R. Hernandez. Jorge is a great computer repair technician who runs 123 Computer Repair Services (http://123ComputerRepair.com) in Florida.
Since learning this cool trick, I’ve been using it every day. Thanks Jorge!

“Save Keystrokes by using Ctrl+Enter to complete URLs”
You want to open http://www.bing.com -  so you start typing http:// or www. and bing and .com
There is a much easier approach for this by using a shortcut.
On modern browsers such as Internet Explorer and Firefox, hitting Ctrl + Enter will automatically fill in the www. and the .com part of the URL.
Here is an example:
1)  Just type in “bing” into the address bar in your browser
2) Press Ctrl + Enter
3)  This is what you get: http://www.bing.com/
4) That’s all you need, enjoy the tip!
