Tech - Desktop and Lock Workstation Shortcuts (1 Viewer)

For those of you who are interested:

I am posting shortcuts for two functions in the Windows 7.x through Windows 10.x operating systems to make your life a bit easier.

1. Lock Workstation - Click on this shortcut and it will immediately lock your workstation,

2. Desktop - Click on this shortcut and it will immediately bring your desktop up (in case it is hidden behind and application or a screen hogging app).


I keep them in my c:\Windows directory ... and pin them to my taskbar (which is set to always be up on bottom of my screen).

This allows me the ability to bring my desktop to the foreground no matter what is currently up in the foreground, or to lock my computer immediately.

I use them in conjunction with "Classic Shell", which gives me back my much loved menu navigation system from Windows 7.x / 8.x

They come in handy.

Or you could press the windows key and d or l to show the desktop or lock your computer. May be easier than a shortcut.
