If you’re running a number of files
from the same program, such as multiple documents in Microsoft Word,
Windows 7 allows you to switch through these windows with ease.
Simply press down on the Ctrl key while clicking the icon from the taskbar.
Each click will change the window to the next in the sequence, in the order that
you opened them.
When working within an application, sometimes
you just want more of a good thing. To open another window of the same
application (assuming the app can run more than one instance), simply hold
Shift and click the taskbar icon. You can also middle-click your third mouse
button for the same result.

Windows 7 makes it easy for you to
adjust your display settings, making text and images easier to view in all the
various locations where you work on your computer. Your laptop display may
look fine at work but a little dark at home. Adjust the text and image settings
easily with two snappy applets: ClearType Text Tuning and Display Color Calibration.
Run cttune.exe and dccw.exe, or look them up in the Control Panel.

You can decide the order that
your icons show up in your taskbar by simply dragging them to the
order you desire. And for the first five icons, you can launch them with
a simple keystroke: Any of the first five icons can be opened by pressing
®+1, +2, etc.

While we’re on the subject of taskbar shortcuts, use +T to
shift your attention to the taskbar. Your machine will make its active screen your
taskbar menu, and you can use the arrow keys to select the application you’re
interested in. Just hit Enter to launch it. Naturally, to exit this trick, press Esc.
BitLocker® has become a saving grace when it
comes to increased laptop security. Windows 7 has taken security even farther
with its BitLocker To GoTM feature, which allows you to encrypt removable USB
devices and external disks. To enable BitLocker or BitLocker To Go, right click the
drive in Windows Explorer and select “Turn on BitLocker…” This can also be
managed centrally via Group Policy, so IT administrators can require the USB
drive be encrypted before files can be written to it.

We’ve all experienced minor issues like Windows Aero not displaying or sound
controls not functioning. Don’t get stuck in the mud just because your computer
seems to be. Windows 7 can save you from having to bite the bullet and call the
help desk for every problem that comes up, thanks to the new Windows Troubleshooting
Platform. It’s easily accessed by typing “fix” or “Troubleshoot” in the
Start Menu. A list of Windows Troubleshooting Packs allows you to choose from
what might be giving you trouble, and the troubleshooter will faithfully attempt
to clear up the problem.
