Il nuovo sistema operativo di Microsoft è stato pensato e ottimizzato per ambienti e dispositivi tattili come i tablet. Come tale offre agli utenti Windows una esperienza diversa che obbliga, forse, a cambiare abitudini e comportamenti. A nessuno è però vietato di continuare a mantenerle immutate.
Microsoft non si è dimenticata dei suoi utenti affezionati e delle loro abitudini nell'uso di un dispositivo Windows. Soprattutto di coloro che continuano a prediligere l'uso di tastiera e mouse.
Per questi utenti la versione Windows 8 Consumer Preview in distribuzione da poco comprende il supporto di shortcuts da tastiera che rende facile interazione e input dell'utente. Alcuni dei comandi sono legati alla nuova interfaccia touchscreen, come ad esempio per cambiare l'orientamento del dispositivo o per attivare la Charms Bar.
La tabella che segue, trovata su PcWorld, contiene la lista dei comandi disponibili
