Common shortcut keys

Shortcuts (shortcuts) are key combinations that users manipulate on the keyboard to access the functions or processes that the manufacturer sets for their programs or software. With keyboard shortcuts, users can do the work that needs to be done faster than using a mouse, for example using a shortcut in graphics with Photoshop or simply in Windows.
