Windows 7: Minimize Window

📅 2011-May-17 ⬩ ✍️ Ashwin Nanjappa ⬩ 🏷️ keyboard shortcuts, windows ⬩ 📚 Archive

There is no single keyboard shortcut in Windows 7 to minimize an active maximized window. Instead the shortcut that works is Win+Down Win+Down.

The first Win+Down resizes the window from maximized size to its non-maximized size. The second Win+Down minimizes the window away to the taskbar.

Tried with: Windows 7
