Shortcut menus are another way to do tasks. These are accessed when you right-click on an item, a folder, or even a blank screen. They’re just like main menus; they can have action items, sub-menus, and options. Unlike main menus, though, they change depending on what you’ve right-clicked on.

 

The good part about this is it limits your choices to what’s relevant. (For example, you wouldn’t right-click an e-mail and find options for creating an appointment.) So, just remember that shortcut menus can speed things up a lot. If you can’t remember how to do something, try right-clicking!
