If you find yourself clicking the little “Show Desktop” icon in the Quick Launch task bar several times a day, there is a faster and easier way to minimize all open windows at once to display the Desktop. Simply press the “Windows” key and the letter “D” at the same time (the Windows key is typically located between the Ctrl and Alt keys). When you’re finished with the task at hand, simply press “Windows / D” once more to maximize all of your active windows.
