Climb the steps all the way to Windows guru status with our invaluable selection of tips and shortcuts for XP and Vista.

You probably use Windows every day. You probably know it backwards. But we can guarantee this collection of expert tips, advice and shortcuts will save you time and move you one step closer to Windows guru status. Over the next ten pages you’ll learn how to send documents where you want with just a single click of the mouse, kill off unwanted services and optimise the resource-hogging swapfile. And plenty more.

There’s so much advice we’ve had to split it up. There are simple first steps, and if you want to improve the way you work, tips for that too. We show you how to fix problems, and you'll discover how to make Windows run faster. And, for those who truly crave guru status, we’ve got some in-depth advice.



The end result is something we hope you’ll refer to time and again: shortcuts to master, in-depth advice that could change the way you work, and daily routines to keep you and your data organised. We can’t promise you’ll never get another blue screen of death, but we can assure you a happier, quicker, more reliable Windows life.

Thanks PCA! This is a great article, chock full of stuff the average user wouldn't even conceive of. I'm very saavy and still found several awesome nuggets that I implemented right away. What I don't understand is why Windows doesn't come with most of this stuff *already* going? They'll cram bloatware and advertisers icons down your throat but won't turn on System restore by default? LIES... ALL LIES!!! ;-)
