Afterwards, you know that you need to go to a particular website. Windows offers a quick shortcut that selects and clears the address bar so you don’t have to even stop typing before you move along. To make the jump, simply press **Ctrl+L**. ## Quickly Add the Dot Com: Ctrl+Enter Let’s use an easy example for this one, like the official website of the 1996 movie Space Jam. Visiting this website is as easy as typing in “www-dot-spacejam-dot-com,” but this shortcut allows you to just type in “spacejam” instead. Pressing **Ctrl+Enter** will automatically add the “www-dot” and “dot-com” in for you. ## Open a Search in a New Tab: Alt+Enter Of course, a lot of searches come about as something else is being done online, and that something isn’t always something you can navigate away from. If you’re trying to open a new website up or perform a search in a new tab, pressing **Alt+Enter** rather than just the latter will open what you typed in a new tab. *These two shortcuts also work together, so pressing **Ctrl+Alt+Enter** after typing “spacejam” would add the missing domain information and navigate to it in a new tab.* ## Open Clear Browsing Data: Ctrl+Shift+Delete Finally, when you’re all done browsing the Space Jam website (or whatever else you may have used these tips to do), you can more conveniently open your option to clear your browsing data. Pressing **Ctrl+Shift+Delete** will bring you to the requisite screen for you to press the button.
