Are there any keyboard shortcuts for Windows 10 developer preview's virtual desktops ("Task View")?

I just installed Windows 10 developer preview but can't figure out how to cycle through the new virtual desktops with the keyboard.

I'm looking for the following shortcuts if they exist:

  • Switch to the next/previous desktop
  • Go to desktop number N
  • Close the current desktop
  • Open a new desktop

Are these controls implemented yet?


- Switch to the next/previous desktop:

Win+Tab.

The Windows-Tab shortcut lets you switch between multiple virtual desktops with different arrangements of applications

You can switch between your open virtual desktops using Ctrl+Windows+Left or Right arrow keys.

You can switch between your open virtual desktops using Ctrl+Windows+Left or Right arrow keys.


Snapping window: WIN + LEFT or RIGHT (can be used with UP or DOWN to get into quadrants)

Switch to recent window: ALT + TAB (unchanged) – Hold shows new Task view window view, let go and switches to app.

Task view: WIN + TAB – New Task view opens up and stays open.

Create new virtual desktop: WIN + CTRL + D

Close current virtual desktop: WIN + CTRL + F4

Switch virtual desktop: WIN + CTRL + LEFT or RIGHT

You can also use the keyboard combination: "CTRL + WIN + ARROW-KEY LEFT/RIGHT" in order to switch between your virtual desktops.

Edit: Just saw that someone else answered with the above. My bad for "double post".
