Might want to add to the list of previous/current shortcuts Alt-Tab. Unlike using the Windows button and tab, it cycles through both your metro apps AND your open desktop applications (rather than just the desktop mode itself). Alt-Ctrl-Tab also works. Same thing when using the Shift key in those combos (instead of or along with Ctrl).
Hi! Thank you very much for this shortcut list. I just mentioned in the MUO article http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/10-end-of-the-year-tech-related-new-year-resolution-recommendations/ that I am going to learn shortcuts for the first time! I have just got my Windows 8 machine and want to be more productive making common tasks much faster so this cheat sheet is very much handy. Thanks again!
My laziness is too damn high and this app makes it stay like that … I like that
