13. End to the Keyboard S-T-R-E-T-C-H
Tired of stretching your hands from one end of the keyboard to the other to reach those oft-used keyboard shortcuts (such as Ctrl-Alt-Delete)? Turn on the StickyKeys Accessibility option, and you can press these same combos with a single finger--one key at a time.
To turn on StickyKeys, open the Control Panel and double-click Accessibility Options. On the Keyboard tab, select Use StickyKeys. Click the Settings button next to this option, make sure all the options in the resulting dialog box are selected, then click OK twice. Look in the tray of your Taskbar, and you'll see three black boxes to indicate that the StickyKeys feature is on.
Now for the big test: Using one finger, press the Ctrl key, then Alt, then Delete. Hey, it works! (Click Cancel to close the End Task dialog box.) You can turn StickyKeys off at any time by pressing Shift five times. To turn it back on, press Shift five times, then press Enter.
