You can also enlarge the entire Web page or document by pressing the Control key as you turn the wheel on top of your mouse. On the Mac, this enlarges the entire screen image. Kind of like a built-in magnifying glass!

Windows key+D in Windows

. (the “Windows key, is on lower left of your keyboard, shaped like a flag with 4 blocks). You can do this, rather than minimizing each individual window that you have open.  Press the keystroke again to return to what you were doing.

This is especially useful, when you have several windows open, where you may have to minimzie numerous times before you can get to your desktop.

Also notice, that when you click on the tabs ( bottom of your screen) for each task, that it will maximize, or minimize each time you click the tab. Sort of like an On-Off switch!
