Using Terminal Server shortcut keys

If you choose not to apply Windows key combinations to your Remote Desktop sessions, you can use these Terminal Server shortcut keys to perform many of the same functions. For more information about applying Windows key combinations, see To configure Windows shortcut keys in a session
