Tech Tip - Press "Ctrl + Backspace" to Delete Whole Words Faster

Instead of deleting one letter at a time, use this shortcut to remove entire words instantly.

How to:

- Place the cursor anywhere in a text field (email, document, browser).

- Press Ctrl + Backspace to delete the entire word before the cursor.

- Press Ctrl + Delete to delete the word in front of the cursor.

- This makes text editing much quicker.
