Pretty much in the title, the only time I interact with the windows key in its standard operating condition is getting pissed off that the start menu opened. I use it in other capacities such as taking screen shots and other key commands but I got to wondering if anyone, ever actually uses it to access the start menu.
Also if anyone comes here and posts “dOnT uSe wINdoWs,” you really are cute.
Edit: I am more curious if anyone actually gets utility out of its default behavior (opening the start menu). I am aware that it is used in a number of key commands (although some are new to me).
I hide my taskbar and sometimes it gets funky and a little shy and doesn’t pop up. Pressing the Windows key pops it back up.
Once in awhile on my home non-windows machine I use it to pop the menu out to turn off the computer. Completely mood based.
