Clearing Your Desktop

When you have too many programs open on your desktop, have you ever wanted to just clear your desktop? Instead, you start clicking the Minimize or Close button on each program you have open. It’s a long process to get them all minimized or closed.

A shortcut is available if you are using a Windows keyboard.

Here’s how you use it.
1. Look for a key with the Microsoft Windows logo on it. The key is frequently located in the lower left of your keyboard near the CTRL and ALT keys.
2. Hold down the Windows key, and then type M. The system minimizes all open programs at once. Your desktop is cleared.
