File Management Tricks Rename a file quickly  Right-clicking and selecting rename is not very efficient. Instead press F2 while a file is selected to change its name. To alter the name of another file, type Tab without deselecting the current file.

There are a few alternatives that go beyond copying and pasting in Notepad:  1)  Ctrl + Alt + V will show a 'paste special' dialog box.  2) Ctrl + Spacebar will remove formatting in already pasted text.  3)  Download  Puretext  and choose a hotkey to always paste plain text with it. Delete an entire word  Instead of deleting a single letter, pressing Ctrl + Backspace will delete the entire word behind the cursor. This makes deleting text quicker if you screw up a whole word.
