Shortcut Key of the Week [CTRL-Z]

undo Today's shortcut key tip for Windows...

CTRL-Z - Undo

Did you ever do something in a Windows application that you did not want to do?  CTRL-Z will undo it.  Assuming you use CTRL-Z right after you "did it", CTRL-Z will "undo it". 

Do three things in a row you want to undo?  Use CTRL-Z three times in a row to undo all three things.

This shortcut key combination applies to just about any Windows application.  Use with care or you run the risk of undoing something you wanted to-do.

This is the latest shortcut tip in my ongoing quest to share one shortcut per week; making keyboard shortcuts easy to digest, easy to remember.

Use cmd+z ("apple key"+z if you want ;-)) if you are using a Mac.
You can usually "redo" your "undone" actions by using ctrl/cmd+shift+z or ctrl/shift+y.
