After posting Where is ctrl-alt-delete I thought it might be a good idea to list the remaining key combinations for remote desktop. You may not use all of them but it’s good to know they exist. Microsoft was good enough to provide the following:
Shortcut key | Description |
---|---|
ALT+PAGE UP | Switches between programs from left to right. |
ALT+PAGE DOWN | Switches between programs for right to left. |
ALT+INSERT | Cycles through the programs in the order they were started. |
ALT+HOME | Displays the Start menu. |
CTRL+ALT+BREAK | Switches the client between full-screen mode and window mode. |
CTRL+ALT+END | Brings up the Windows Security dialog box. |
ALT+DELETE | Displays the Windows menu. |
CTRL+ALT+MINUS SIGN (-) | Places a snapshot of the active window, within the client, on the Remote Desktop Session Host (RD Session Host) server clipboard (provides the same functionality as pressing ALT+PRINT SCREEN on the local computer). |
CTRL+ALT+PLUS SIGN (+) | Places a snapshot of the entire client windows area on the RD Session Host server clipboard (provides the same functionality as pressing PRINT SCREEN on the local computer). |
