Windows Tools for Boosting Productivity: Secrets Unveiled

In the vast universe of productivity, Windows has been a cornerstone for professionals, students, and anyone looking to enhance their workflow efficiency. Beyond the well-trodden path of Microsoft Office Suite lies a treasure trove of built-in Windows tools, many of which remain underexplored. This post dives deep into these hidden gems, shedding light on how they can transform your productivity. Additionally, we’ll introduce you to TSTP, a company revolutionizing the way we think about productivity software.

1 – Task Scheduler (Windows 10, Windows 11)

Task Scheduler is your silent but powerful ally in automating routine tasks. With it, you can schedule programs, scripts, or commands to run automatically at the time and frequency you choose. Imagine never forgetting to back up your work or automate system cleanups.

Tutorial:

  1. Search for “Task Scheduler” in the Start Menu.
  2. Select “Create Basic Task…” from the right panel.
  3. Follow the wizard to name your task and define its trigger (daily, weekly, etc.).
  4. Choose the action “Start a program” and browse for the program or script you wish to run.
  5. Complete the wizard and sit back as Task Scheduler takes over your routine tasks.

2 – Windows Sandbox (Windows 10 Pro, Windows 11 Pro and Enterprise)

Windows Sandbox is an isolated environment where you can test unknown or untrusted applications without affecting your main system. It’s a sandboxed desktop instance that disappears once closed, along with everything in it.

Tutorial:

  1. Enable Windows Sandbox via Control Panel > Programs > Turn Windows features on or off.
  2. After restarting, open Windows Sandbox from the Start Menu.
  3. Copy and paste the application you want to test into the Sandbox window.
  4. When done, simply close the Sandbox. Everything gets automatically deleted, keeping your main system pristine.

3 – Virtual Desktops (Windows 10, Windows 11)

Boost your productivity by organizing your work into multiple virtual desktops. This feature allows you to have separate desktops for different projects or work and personal use, reducing clutter and focusing on the task at hand.

Tutorial:

  1. Press Win + Tab to open Task View.
  2. Click “New desktop” at the top of the screen.
  3. Switch between desktops using Win + Ctrl + Left/Right Arrow.
  4. Drag and drop windows to move them between desktops in Task View.

4 – Snip & Sketch (Windows 10, Windows 11)

Snip & Sketch revolutionizes the way you take screenshots, annotate them, and share insights quickly. Whether it’s capturing a bug or visually explaining a concept, Snip & Sketch is your go-to tool.

Tutorial:

  1. Press Win + Shift + S to activate screen snipping.
  2. Choose from rectangular, freeform, window, or full-screen snip.
  3. The snip opens in Snip & Sketch, where you can annotate.
  4. Save or share directly from the app.

5 – Power Automate Desktop (Windows 10, Windows 11)

Power Automate Desktop brings robotic process automation (RPA) to your fingertips. Automate web and desktop applications, data processing, and much more, all without writing a single line of code.

Tutorial:

  1. Download and install Power Automate Desktop.
  2. Create a new flow and use the drag-and-drop interface to add actions.
  3. Automate tasks like filling in web forms, manipulating files, or extracting data from documents.
  4. Run your automation and watch as tasks are performed without your intervention.
