Users who have been using PCs running the Windows operating system for a long time know a few keyboard shortcuts. Keyboard shortcuts, as you know, help you access various features of the Windows operating system with ease.

Although most users know a few keyboard shortcuts, many PC users do not know about touchpad gestures. Users who own a laptop probably know the basic touchpad gestures like two-finger scrolling and two-finger tap for a right click. Did you know that Windows 10 and Windows 11 offer three and four-finger gestures?

You can do much more using the touchpad with three and four-finger gestures. For instance, you can configure Windows 10/11 t open the search with a three-finger tap. In addition, you can maximize and minimize windows with a three-finger swipe up and down.
