  1. calc - Calculator switching Alt+num Easter-features


    TL/DR calc has keyboard combinations to access at least 7 types of calculators. ALT+H is a good way to reveal them. There are CTRL function combinations revealed with mouse-over when their functions are available

    Calc, the native Windows10 calculator allows these alt+key toggles:

    1. alt+1 Standard
    2. alt+2 Scientific
    3. alt+3 Graphing
    4. alt+4 Programmer
    5. alt+5 Date Calculation
    6. alt+up always on top (signified by disappearance of title bar)
    7. alt+down back to full view
    8. alt+h Hamburger menu (Open Navigation)
    9. alt+h alt reveals the above choices and two more calculators
    • alt+h and alt+c (or alt+h, alt, c) Currency
    • alt+h and alt+v (or alt+h, alt, c) Volume
    • alt+h and alt+ac for "about" seems broken

    There is also a compliment of ctrl+ type combinations visible with mouse-over

    There may be more but you get it.

  3. Window 10 Pro - Calculator error

    Hi Suman,

    I realize that you are facing issues with the calculator on Windows 10. I will try to help you with this issue.

    Please answer these questions to get more clarity on this issue:


    • Did you make any changes to the PC prior to this issue?

    • Are you facing this issue on the calculator app or the built-in calculator?

    Some problems can be fixed by signing out of your account and then signing back in. Press Ctrl+Alt+Delete and select Sign out. Once you’ve signed out, sign back in to your account.

    To open the built-in calculator, follow these steps:


    • Press Windows key + R to get the run window.

    • Type “calc” and hit enter to open the calculator.

    If you are facing issue with the calculator app, then you will be able to solve some problems by running a troubleshooter that will automatically fix some common issues with Windows Store Apps. Once this is done check the status.

    Open the Windows Store Apps troubleshooter by following these steps:


    • Press Windows key + X and click on
      Control Panel.

    • Click on Troubleshooting and click on
      View All.

    Click on “Windows Store Apps” troubleshooter to fix problems with Windows Store Apps. Follow the on-screen directions to run this troubleshooter and restart the computer to check if this helps.

    Keep us informed to help you further.

    calc - Calculator switching Alt+num Easter-features

    Windows 10 Calculator app gets always on top and compact mode features

    Why not make a suggestion on the Feedback Hub.

    I think this is a step in the right direction. I use Calculator daily.
