Post your most useful keyboard shortcuts that most people don't know

Not the obvious ones. Not Ctrl+C and Ctrl+Z. The ones that actually save you real time that people who do not know them are doing the slow way every single day without realising there is a faster path.

I became aware of a shortcut last week that I had genuinely not known existed after years of doing something manually that turns out to be a single key combination. The feeling of mild embarrassment mixed with genuine delight when this happens is one of my favourite small computing experiences.

Platform is fine: Windows, Mac, Linux, specific apps. Just specify what it is for.

Windows: Win+V opens clipboard history. Most people do not know Windows has a clipboard history built in. It has changed how I work more than almost any other discovery this year.
