Alt + E =

Ctrl + S = Save the content you are working on a program. This is really important when you are writing bunch of stuff in Microsoft word. But Sometimes we forget to save the document and later shout for the mistake. This simple shortcut can save the whole document.

Ctrl + B = Bold the font in Microsoft word

Ctrl + U = Underline the font in Microsoft word
