        Ctrl+Alt+Shift+Win is one of the most windows things that could happen. You just press some keys that should do nothing and boom, microsoft ad. I hope the EU version of windows will be stripped of that crap.

        Ah, so that’s my ctrl+alt+shift+win opens the office app. I discovered that a couple of years ago and I couldn’t find it documented anywhere.
