Shortcuts dependent on the program and OS. But I liked shift+F7 in WordPerfect 5.1.

Anyway, googling SHORTCUTS + the name of the program or OS you’re interested in gives useful sites and useful lists to pick the ones you want to remember, like ctrl-C and ctlr-X and ctrl-V for copy, cut and paste in Windows.

You have short-cut keys?

The OP never confirmed if they are using a cell phone or a computer. Really hard to offer advice without knowing more about the device in use.

A few that I find super useful on a daily basis:

Ctrl+C/Ctrl+V for copy/paste – so much faster than right-clicking
Alt+Tab to quickly switch between open windows
Ctrl+S to save a file – gotta love that muscle memory
Ctrl+F to find text on a page
Windows key + Arrow to snap windows to the side of the screen

There are tons more out there, but those are the ones I find myself using all the time.

Some essential shortcuts: Ctrl + C/V (Copy/Paste), Ctrl + Z/Y (Undo/Redo), Alt + Tab (Switch apps), and Ctrl + S (Save). Let me know if you need shortcuts for a specific program!
