Windows 11 Keyboard Shortcuts That Will Increase Productivity

Have you ever been too tired to type? That’s when you can use the built-in voice typing tool in Windows. You can use the voice typing tool on Windows 11 as a dictation tool that’s pleasantly accurate to work with. The voice typing tool not only improves accessibility but also makes you more productive because most people can generally speak faster than they type.

Whenever you’re using a program like Microsoft Word or Google Docs on a Windows 11 computer, you can press the Windows key + H to launch the voice typing tool. Currently, the tool supports almost all popular languages including English, Croatian, Czech, Danish, Finnish, Hindi, Japanese, Spanish, and more. The full list of supported languages is available on Microsoft’s website.

Once you press Win + H, you’ll see a small window pop open. You can directly start voice typing by clicking on the mic icon, or you can change settings by clicking on the cog wheel icon. From Settings, you can enable auto punctuation or add quick access for voice typing by enabling voice typing launcher.

When typing, you can also use commands like “new line” for creating new paragraphs. Once you finish dictating, you can stop voice typing just by saying “Stop dictation.” If you only want to take a break, just say “Pause dictation.”
