Get easier access to all your applications, just use a key board shortcut and open your application.

We all know that the usual way to open an application is to double click on an application and then it opens. Some of us might use the quick launch toolbar to open applications. However, there is an easier way. You can use keyboard shortcuts (such as Ctrl+Alt+A) to open an application.

To do this
1. Open the Start menu
2. Right click on the desired Application (you can also right click on an icon)
3. Click on properties
4. Go to the Shortcut tab
5. Place your cursor in the Shortcut Key area
6. Then on you keyboard just press the desired combination(you have to press the Ctrl key and the Alt key and the desired letter key together)
7. Click on OK and your done!

You can now access that application by pressing Ctrl+Alt+the letter you chose.
