Hints, Tips And Tricks
Close All Your Applications At The Same Time

When you're done working on your computer for the day, you probably close each open application one by one. If so, chances are that you've wished that you could close all your open applications at the same time. Fortunately, there's a hidden technique that will allow you to do so.
To begin, hold down the CTRL key and left-click once, on each application button on your taskbar. When you do, you'll notice that each button remains selected. Once you've selected all the application buttons on the taskbar, release the CTRL key, right-click once on any one of the selected buttons and select the "Close" command from the menu. When you do, all your applications will close. If you have any application in which an open file hasn't yet been saved, that application will prompt you to save the file.
