Lesser-Known Windows Tips and Tricks for Enhanced Productivity

I’ve been using Windows for a while now, and I’m curious about any lesser-known tips or tricks that could enhance my experience. I’ve got the basics down, like shortcuts for copy/paste and using the task manager, but I’m looking for something more advanced or unique that might improve productivity or usability. Maybe there’s a hidden feature, a cool customization, or a tool that not many people use but is really helpful? Any advice or recommendations from fellow users would be appreciated!

You might want to try using PowerToys—it’s a set of utilities that can really boost your productivity on Windows. One of my favorites is FancyZones, a window manager that allows you to create custom window layouts, making multitasking much easier. Also, the Windows Terminal is a great tool if you work with command line frequently, offering a much more customizable interface. Have you explored any other PowerToys features yet?

Adding to the discussion, another useful tip is to use the “Clipboard History” feature. By pressing Win + V, you can access a list of items you’ve copied recently, which can be a game-changer for productivity when juggling multiple pieces of information. It’s simple but often overlooked! Have you tried setting up virtual desktops too? They’re great for organizing different projects.
