Did You Know This Hidden Shortcut Key to Minimize All Windows?
Did you know there's a hidden shortcut at the right edge of the taskbar that instantly minimizes all your open windows?
Just move your cursor to the bottom-right corner of the desktop and click once. This will minimize all open windows.
This shortcut works on both Windows 10 and Windows 11 to minimize all open windows.
To do the same thing with the keyboard, use either the Windows key + M
or Windows key + D
shortcuts.
Another handy keyboard shortcut is Windows + Home
, which minimizes all windows except the currently active one.
Another one is Windows key + Down Arrow
, which minimizes the currently active window. If the window is maximized, it will first restore it to its original size. Pressing the shortcut again will minimize the window.
If you want to maximize a window, press Windows key + Up Arrow
.
