Using the keyboard and mouse
The keyboard and mouse allow you to type, select items, scroll and to perform the same functions as
you do using touch gestures. The keyboard also allows you to use action keys and hot keys to
perform specific functions.
TIP: The Windows key on the keyboard allows you to quickly return to the Start screen from
an open app or the Windows desktop. Pressing the Windows key again will return you to the previous
screen.
NOTE: Depending on the country or region, your keyboard may have different keys and keyboard
functions than those discussed in this section.

and key combinations.
Using the action keys
