Very useful information, just what I like to have.
I noticed that some of the info I can find in "Windows keyboard shortcuts overview" but not the others. Are they listed somewhere else

Here are the tips in Tweaku
To close several windows at once, hold down the Control key while clicking on the taskbar buttons of each window. Once you have selected all the windows you want to close, right-click the last button you selected and pick "Close Group"
Some objects (such as Control Panel applications) support additional commands which are available by holding the Shift key while right-clicking
In the Address Bar, type "microsoft" and hit Ctrl+Enter. Internet Explorer automatically inserts the "
http://www." and ".com" for you
To remove an AutoComplete entry from a web form, highlight the item in the AutoComplete dropdown and press the Delete key
To remove all web form AutoComplete entries, go to the Internet Explorer Tools menu, select Internet Options, Content, AutoComplete, then press the "Clear Forms" button
To organize your Favorites in Explorer instead of using the Organize Favorites dialog, hold the shift key while selecting "Organize Favorites" from the Favorites menu of an Explorer window
You can organize your Favorites by dragging the items around your Favorites menu
Alternatively, you can open the Favorites pane and hold the Alt key while pressing the up and down arrows to change the order of your Favorites
To run Internet Explorer fullscreen, press F11. Do it again to return to normal mode
When dragging a file in Explorer, you can control the operation that will be performed when you release the mouse button
Hold the Control key to force a Copy
Hold the Shift key to force a Move
Hold the Alt key to force a Create Shortcut
Press Win+L to switch to the Welcome screen
Press Win+L to lock your workstation
You can switch users without going through the Welcome screen: From Task Manager, go to the Users tab, right-click a user, and select Connect
Hold down the shift key in the shutdown dialog to change "Stand By" to "Hibernate". Or just press H to hibernate instantly. You can even use the Power Control Panel to configure your power button to hibernate
To disable the password when resuming from standby or hibernation, open the Power Control Panel and uncheck "Prompt for password after returning from standby" on the Advanced tab
You can rename multiple files all at once: Select a group of files, right-click the first file, and select "Rename". Type in a name for the first file, and the rest will follow
Hold down the shift key when switching to thumbnail view to hide the file names. Do it again to bring them back
If you create a file called Folder.jpg, that image will be used as the thumbnail for the folder. What's more, that image will also be used as the album art in Windows Media Player for all media files in that folder
From the View Menu, select "Choose Details" to select which file properties should be shown in the Explorer window. To sort by a file property, check its name in the "Choose Details" in order to make that property available in the "Arrange Icons by" menu
To display the volume control icon in the taskbar, go to the Sounds and Audio Devices Control Panel and select "Place volume icon in the taskbar"
Hold down the shift key when deleting a file to delete it immediately instead of placing it in the Recycle Bin. Files deleted in this way cannot be restored
If you hold down the shift key while clicking "No" in a Confirm File Operation dialog, the response will be interpreted as "No to All"
To save a document with an extension other than the one a progrm wants to use, enclose the entire name in quotation marks. For example, if you run Notepad and save a file under the name
Dr.Z
it will actually be saved under the name Dr.Z.txt. But if you type
"Dr.Z"
then the document will be saved under the name Dr.Z. Note that a document so-named cannot be opened via double-clicking since the extension is no longer ".txt".
Put a shortcut to your favorite editor in your Send To folder and it will appear in your "Send To" menu. You can then right-click any file and send it to your editor.
Ctrl+Shift+Escape will launch Task Manager.
To arrange two windows side-by-side, switch to the first window, then hold the Control key while right-clicking the taskbar button of the second window. Select "Tile Vertically".
