How to make hotkeys in Word. Hot combinations and WORD keys
We all dream of a “magic” button that, when pressed, would solve all our problems. Alas, she is not there yet.
However, in computer world We made sure that we could quickly and easily store any amount of a wide variety of information.
Texts, pages, pictures, photographs, calculations, reports, websites - this and much more can be easily kept as a keepsake with a simple “save” button.
Where to look for this miracle button? Each case has its own instructions!
Here is a user looking at the keyboard and thinking: “Interesting, huh? what is shown on the “save” button icon? The answer is simple - nothing! There is no beautiful and single “save” button. But, stop! There is no need to be upset.
There are analogues and convenient keyboard shortcuts that are easy to find and easy to remember:
- Simultaneous pressing of “Ctrl” + “S/ы”. Suitable for any text documents, most standard programs and browsers. Press easily and quickly with two fingers of the left hand.
- The button above the standard letter series or number block is “PrtScr”. This quick button“save” for any information on the computer screen. PrtScr takes a photo of the screen and easily displays the result as an image.
It is important to understand that after clicking on PrintScreen, you need to go to any editor - be it graphic or text - and open the saved image.
To open, you need to use the “Paste” function, which can be easily found in a small menu when you right-click on the screen, or activate it with another key combination – “Ctrl” + “V/M”.
3.Miracle button F12. It will appeal to advanced users who need not just to save a document, but to make a later copy of it. F12 performs the “Save As...” function and is ready to either ensure the safety of a completely new, unnamed document, or make a duplicate of an existing one, but under a different name.
What does the “Save Page” button look like in a browser?
- For further study in the absence of the Internet;
- To return to it later if you have access to the World Wide Web.
Each goal has its own capabilities, but again it will be required magic button"save page"! And she’s gone again!
We solve problems sequentially, but the principles of operation will be approximately the same for all browsers, so you won’t have to worry about searching for a saving function in Opera, Mozilla, Chrome or somewhere else.

- To ensure the safety of the page for subsequent viewing, you need to find in the line where the page address (Url) is indicated "asterisk" in Chrome– in the browser Opera it will be “heart”– and click on this symbol. When hovered over with the mouse, the icon may show different names: “add page to bookmarks”, “add to favorites or reading list”. It doesn't matter. The essence of all such symbols is the same.

When you click, a menu will be displayed where the storage location will be specified, and when you click on “done”, the selected page will move to a safe place.
Essentially this is a bookmark, but that’s what we need. To now launch the saved site, simply search for the name you want on home page browser: in the top menu bar, as a large icon, or in another place where the word “bookmarks” appears.
The paths are identical to saving the document, that is, from the keyboard:
- Combination “Ctrl” + “S/ы” with the appearance of a window and clarification of the storage location.
- The “PrtScr” key for photographing a page and then inserting it into any editor or document.
- "Save As..." function. It is launched either from a menu called up with the right mouse button, or by clicking on this phrase in the browser menu. The browser menu is most often encrypted with three vertical dots, when clicked on, a rather large list opens different functions and opportunities.
“Save” buttons in Word, Corel, Excel
The most important thing for the user is to figure out where the “save” button is in Word, Excel, and standard work programs. For graphics lovers, you will have to master the specifics of Corel, Photoshop, and their analogues. Believe me, it's not difficult!
- Floppy disk – “information storage”. Elementary.
- The “save” button in Corel has a similar appearance.
Knowledge of the following points will help ensure the safety of the created document, file, image:
- "Save" or "Save As...". You can find these function lines in the menu. It opens either by clicking on “File” in the top field of the open program window, or through the “Office” button, which looks like different-sized colored squares in the upper left corner of the document latest versions Word and Excel.
- "Export". Typical function for graphic editors, allowing you to save created images in the most different formats. In short: when you click on “Export,” a window appears for specifying saving parameters. Then “ok” and you’re done!
Works great in office and graphics programs combinations “Ctrl” + “S/ы” and F12.
What should I do and why is the “Save” button missing or inactive?
And now here's the riddle: save button doesn't work. What to do? The situation is quite typical - especially for Corel Draw programs installed using demo versions or through pirated software.
It is best to solve such problems preventively, that is, use licensed programs and don’t worry about failures.
But since the problem already exists, we will have to deal with it.
There is an interesting way to do this:
1.Add to C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts .
0.0.0.0 apps.corel.com
0.0.0.0 mc.corel.com
corel.com
2.Delete the folder.
for Win 7-10
C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Roaming\Corel\Messages
for WinXP
C:\Documents and Settings\%username%\Application Data\Corel\Messages
Judging by the reviews of those in similar trouble, the recipe is effective and helps solve problems with preservation.
In 1C, such difficulties are removed by adjusting access rights for a specific user. The way is simple: “Service” - “Users” - “Setting up additional user rights”.
There, select the employee who has problems with the visibility of the save buttons, and put a checkmark in his rights in the table editing line. And everything works again.
It turns out that the “magic” save button still exists on computers, laptops, programs and browsers. Of course, you need to find it first, but with the help of all the instructions described, it’s unlikely to be difficult anymore!
Word is the most common text editor for personal computers. It is used by both beginners and professionals. For comfortable and fast work Word provides a keyboard shortcut for saving a document, also called “hot keys,” which allows you to perform certain actions at once, without looking up from the keyboard. This article explains how to save a document in Word using a keyboard shortcut.
Normal save (quick)
Save document to Word any versions can be a combination Ctrl+S. This " shortcut key" executes the "Save" command. However, there are software packages on the Internet in which this combination does not work. In this case, you need to configure it yourself.
Keyboard shortcut Shift + F12 also saves the document in Word. This combination is guaranteed to work in all software packages and versions of all release years. Also this method may be more convenient for left-handers.
Saving by selecting a file path (“save as”)
"Hot key" F12 is responsible for performing the “save as” action in Word. Unlike Shift + F12, this command opens a window asking for the save location, document name, and preferred format. This button is needed if you need to create a separate copy of the text, change the format, or save the file somewhere else.
In addition to the specified combinations, you can set new ones, customized for yourself. In Settings, select a keyboard shortcut setting. In the “Keyboard Settings” window that pops up, in the category settings, select “File Tab”, and in it – “FileSave” and “FileSaveAs” for “save” and “save as”, respectively. Now dial the desired button or combination.
I hope that this article was useful and helped you cope with your problem or simply improve your Word skills.
Good day, dear visitors website! It's time to get acquainted with the main shortcuts/key combinations in Microsoft Word . We will only touch on the most important combinations, since it is unrealistic to remember everything, and there is no need.
Keyboard shortcuts are designed to speed up the workflow in MS Word, as well as make it easier for users to use many functions.
I would like to note that keyboard shortcuts in Word are a fairly important factor in your successful work in the program. In addition, some combinations work not only in Word, but also in others word processors and programs, so you need to know them.
I can give an example from my life - while studying at educational institutions, almost all of my coursework, reports, diplomas, in terms of editing and typing work, were completed in 1 day (very rarely 2-3 days). This is despite the fact that the smallest coursework contained at least 40 sheets (I’m silent about diplomas). That is, in the morning I took completely scattered information that was not formatted in any way and typed it, edited, copied, designed, finalized, and by the evening I had a work ready for printing. I think any person is pleased when his work goes very quickly and does not bring nervous shocks, displeasure and other things. And situations when something has “moved out” in your documents, something has jumped, something has been replaced with something that is not what it should be, are familiar to everyone. So, keyboard shortcuts in any program help you perform an action in half a second, while doing the same using a menu or mouse will in any case spend more time. Well, are you convinced? Then let's move on to learning Word keyboard shortcuts!
The most frequently used Word combinations that you need to know:
- Ctrl+C- this combination copies the selected text to the clipboard;
- Ctrl+V- a combination for pasting any previously copied object to the location indicated by the cursor;
- Ctrl+X- cuts the selected object (text, picture, file, table) and simultaneously copies it to the clipboard. Perhaps I’ll go into more detail here. This combination allows you to delete selected text from one place and paste it in any other place without any complex movements. Just select the text, press Ctrl+X - the text disappears, place the cursor in right place,Ctrl+V - done. Don't forget that Ctrl+C replaces text cut out via Ctrl+X (and vice versa).
- Ctrl+Z- cancels the action (possible interpretation - step back). Extremely useful feature, if you accidentally deleted, wrote, ruined something, etc.
- Ctrl+A- the full selection of the document that we already know.
Now let's look at other frequently used documents. Word combinations keys.
Ctrl+N- creates new document by type of current (or last) document.
Ctrl+S- saving the document. I recommend pressing this combination every 5 minutes (during intensive work).
Ctrl+O- opening a document. When you press the keys, a selection window will open where you can select which document to open.
Ctrl+W- closing the document.
Ctrl+Y- repeat the last action. That is, you decided to make 1 word red, you did it, but after thinking about it, you wanted to change 5 more words in red. We simply place the cursor on the word that we also want to “recolor” and press Ctrl+Y - the word turns red. Sometimes it helps.
Ctrl+B- makes the text bold when the cursor is placed in it. Please note that the word, for example, in brackets will be bold, but the brackets will remain normal.
Ctrl+I- makes the text italic. It is noteworthy that by pressing the combination a second time on the same word, you will cancel the italic style, and the same with bold text.
Ctrl+U- adds underlining to the text.
Ctrl+F- search and replace text.
Ctrl+Tab- inserts a tab character.
Ctrl+P- document printing. The document will not start printing immediately, but a print settings window will appear, in which you need to click “OK” after making the settings.
Ctrl+Backspace- deleting 1 word to the left of the cursor. In this case, the cursor should be positioned close to the word, without a space.
Ctrl+Del- deleting 1 word to the right of the cursor. Similar to Ctrl+Backspace.
Shift+Enter- insert a line break. It is very convenient because it does not create a paragraph mark, but simply moves the line down. With this combination you can control the number and length of lines of text.
Ctrl+Enter- insert a page break. The text that is to the right of the cursor will be moved to the next page.
Ctrl+sign "-"- inserts an em dash.
Ctrl+Alt+sign "-"- a very long dash.
Alt+Ctrl+C- inserts a copyright symbol.
Alt+Ctrl+R- inserts a protected trademark.
Alt+Ctrl+T- inserts a simple trademark.
Alt+Ctrl+dot on the English layout (yu - on Russian)- insertion of an ellipsis. Unlike three points, the ellipsis is inseparable, that is, only 2 points out of three cannot be transferred.
Ctrl+End- will move you to the end of the document.
Ctrl+Home- move to the beginning of the document.
Ctrl+Shift+8- shows unprintable characters in the text (sometimes this is necessary). Pressing it again will hide the signs.
These are, in my opinion, the most necessary keyboard shortcuts in Word. But this is far from full list these combinations. It’s just that the 20/80 principle works here, as usual. That is, with the help of 20% of key combinations you can complete 80% of your tasks. In addition, remembering all the Word key combinations is difficult.
Hot combinations and WORD keys
To highlight in Word vertical block text, you must first press the key combination "Ctrl" + "Shift" + "F8". In addition, you can select a vertical block using the mouse while holding down the "Alt" key.
In Word, working in Cyrillic mode, sometimes you need characters that are only available in Latin mode, for example. @, $, & to avoid switching modes just press Alt key+ Ctrl + desired (or Shft+Alt+Ctrl + desired).
Hotkeys
Bold text - press Ctrl+B (or in Russian mode - Ctrl+I). It turns off in the same way.
Italic text - Ctrl+I or Сtrl+Y (in Russian - Ctrl+Ш or Ctrl+Н).
Underlined text - Ctrl+U (in Russian - Ctrl+Г)
Text with double underline - Ctrl+Shift+D (Ctrl+Shift+in)
Text typed in capitals (reduced capital letters) - Ctrl+Shift+K (Ctrl+Shift+L) (to change these attributes of an entire word, it is not necessary to select it entirely. It is only enough that the cursor is inside the word).
Paragraph alignment: left - Ctrl+q (Ctrl+th);
right - Ctrl+r (Ctrl+k);
in the center - Ctrl+e (Ctrl+у)
by format - Ctrl+j (Ctrl+o)
bulleted list- Ctrl+Shift+L (Ctrl+Shift+d)
Shift a paragraph to the right Ctrl+M (Ctrl+ь)
Increasing left indentation (except for the first line) - Ctrl+T (Ctrl+e)
Printing a document (in Word and almost all other programs) - Ctrl+P (ctrl+З).
Some useful notes for those who touch type and hate using the mouse:
Change the font in the text - press Ctrl+Shift+F (Ctrl+Shift+A), this will activate the font change window in the formatting panel. Printing the name the desired font in this panel (usually the first few characters are enough - then Windows completes the name automatically) and press “Enter”.
Change the font or paragraph style - similarly, press Ctrl+Shift+S (Ctrl+Shift+І), and enter the font name, for example, “Heading 1”. After pressing "Enter", the entered style is applied to the paragraph, and if the style does not exist, then it is created based on the formatting of the paragraph where the cursor is located.
Entering an endnote. You can, of course, go to the menu to do this, but this again means using the mouse! It is much easier to press Ctrl+Alt+F (Ctrl+Alt+A), and a footnote will immediately appear in the specified place in the text, and the cursor will move to the bottom of the page, where you can enter its description.
It is very easy to remove unused buttons from the panel by simply dragging them out of the panel with the mouse while holding down Alt; in the same way, when holding down Alt, you can change the location of the buttons without going into the options and settings windows (with pressed Alt+Ctrl - you can make a copy of the button). Using the same manipulations, you can place buttons in the menu and menu sections in the toolbar with buttons.
Sometimes a problem arises and you need to change the case of letters, to do this, stand on the word in which you need to change the case (or select several words) and press Shift+F3 several times, depending on how you want: All Capital Letters At the Beginning of Words, CAPITAL or Lowercase.
