Assign Hotkeys to Common Tasks
Quick, try to open the Task Manager without lighting your hand from the mouse. Unless you have unusually long fingers or a third hand growing from your torso, you can't hit CTRL-ALT-DEL combination without contorting into an unnatural position. Luckily, there's an easier workaround. Navigate to C:Windows\System32 and create a shortcut for taskmgr.exe, and assign a new hotket combination in the Shortcut tab. Use this trick for any commonly used application.
