Windows 10 Keyboard Shortcut to Calculator?

1. Create a shortcut of Calculator
2. Set the target: C:\Windows\System32\calc.exe
3. Right click on the shortcut and select “Properties”
4. On the “Shortcut” tab, enter the keyboard shortcut

Option 1

• File Explorer, type this (shell shortcut) in location bar shell:AppsFolder, right-click Calculator, Create shorcut, Yes
• Right-click new Calculator shortcut on Desktop, Properties, there is our Shortcut key field/entry!

Option 2

• Go to %WinDir%\System32, right-click calc.exe, Create Shortcut, Yes. Then step 2 above

If I placed the shortcut in %WinDir%\System or Documents it seemingly wouldn't work!? It was flakey even moving back to Desktop, but after I set the shortcut to something else, hit Apply, then back to Ctrl+Shift+C it'd work :P

To set up a Win+1 keyboard shortcut:

1. Pin the calculator to the taskbar (Press Windows key, start typing "calculator", once the app icon shows up, right-click to "Pin to Taskbar")
2. Drag it to the left-most spot on the taskbar (looks nice by the other white icons)
3. Windows key + 1 opens item #1 on your taskbar, which is now the calculator.
4. Bonus: Win + Shift + 1 opens a new instance of the calculator if you want multiple ones open.
