How To Add Internet Prefixes and Suffixes Automatically
In today’s Daily Tip I will explain how to access a Web page from any windows address bar.
You can enter any string of characters in an address bar and then press Ctrl+Enter, Shift+Enter or Ctrl+Shift+Enter depending on the Suffixes. Windows will then automatically add “www” and “.com”, “.net” or “.org” and then search for the page on the Internet.
Example #1, if we type:
yahoo
in an address bar and then press Ctrl+Enter, Windows will take us to Yahoo’s Web Site at www.yahoo.com.
Example #2, if we type:
tek-media
in an address bar and then press Shift+Enter, Windows will take us to Tek-Media’s Web Site at www.tek-media.net
Example #3, if we type
pcmechs
in an address bar and then press Ctrl+Shift+Enter, Windows will take us to PCMechs Web Site at www.pcmechs.org
