    How to change or create new shortcut to switch desktop?


    By default the shortcut is Win+Ctrl+Arrow_Key.

    Is there a way to assign Win+V to switch left and Win+B to switch right?

    It would be very easy and fast to switch between , because in case of default shortcut you have to move your left hand over whole keyboard or use both left and right hands which is even worse.

    Thanks

    :)

    Selected icons not showing

    Changing icon always worked but this is the first time I've tried to use these particular icons.

    No config changes.

    The issue persists with all desktop shortcuts.

    I created a new user account. How do I switch over to it. There's only one account showing at startup.

    Edit tiles in Start Menu

    create a new shortcut, add the switch to the end of the 'target' in the shortcut properties.

    right click on the new shortcut and select 'pin to start'
