Hi @google10,

Welcome to HP Support Community.

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

Setting up hotkeys (keyboard shortcuts) on your HP Pavilion laptop can enhance productivity by allowing you to perform tasks quickly. Here’s a guide on how to configure and use hotkeys on your laptop:

Using Built-in Windows Shortcuts

Windows has many built-in keyboard shortcuts that you can use without any additional setup. Some common ones include:

• Ctrl + C: Copy
• Ctrl + V: Paste
• Ctrl + X: Cut
• Alt + Tab: Switch between open apps
• Windows + 😧 Show desktop

Creating Custom Hotkeys

If you want to create your own custom hotkeys, you can use Windows settings and third-party software. Here’s how:

Method 1: Using Windows Shortcuts

Create a Shortcut:

• Right-click on the desktop or in a folder where you want the shortcut.
• Select New > Shortcut.
• Enter the location of the item you want to create a shortcut for (e.g., an application or a file).
• Click Next, name the shortcut, and click Finish.

Assign a Hotkey:

• Right-click on the newly created shortcut and select Properties.
• In the Shortcut tab, click on the Shortcut key field.
• Press the combination of keys you want to assign as the hotkey (e.g., Ctrl + Alt + N).
• Click OK to save the changes.

I hope this helps.

Take care and have a good day.
