Using Windows shortcut keys

Both the standard keyboard and the fingerprint reader keyboard provide three keys you can use with your
Microsoft Windows operating system.
• The two Windows logo keys are located beside the Alt key on either side of the spacebar. They feature
the Windows logo. On the Windows 7 operating system, press the Windows key to open the Start menu.
On the Windows 8 operating system, press the Windows key to switch between the current workspace
and the Start screen. The style of the Windows logo varies depending on the keyboard type.
• The context-menu key is located next to the Ctrl key on the right side of the Spacebar. Pressing the
context-menu key opens the context menu for the active program, icon, or object.
Note: You can use the mouse or the Up and Down arrow keys to highlight menu selections. On the Windows
7 operating system, you can close the Start menu or the context menu by clicking the mouse or pressing Esc.
