Tapping the Windows Logo Key Once Opens the start menu

Holding down the Windows Key and tapping:

D - minimizes the open windows. (Doing it again re-opens all the windows)

E - opens Windows Explorer

F - opens the File Search window

R - opens the Run window.

U - opens the utility manager

Break - opens the System Properties window.

F1 - opens the Help & Support Center window.

I shut down my computer by typing in Windows, U, U. Much faster than clicking it all.

you can shut down even faster by just tapping (not) holding the power key if your computer is setup right.

Holding down the Windows key and pressing E was always a death sentence at our school. It would open up My Computer repeatedly for at least five minutes. Even longer if yo held in E.
Never knew about using D though.

i personally despise the windows key, it gets in the way of my gaming, and microsoft should have just allowed that key to be configurable, especially for older games like Diablo 2: LoD
