  • I have 3 main use cases for the Windows key:

    1. Bring up the start menu and immediately type “cmd” + Enter to bring up a command prompt
    2. Windows + L to lock the computer when I step away
    3. Windows + arrow keys to move windows around on the screen and “dock” them to the sides of the screen (although this hasn’t been consistently working for me more recently)

    I don’t think I ever use it for anything else. So yes, I do use it to bring up the start menu, but generally only to specifically bring up a command prompt window - all of my other commonly used programs are pinned to the taskbar so I can fire them up with a single click.
