Practise keyboard shortcuts

Read a task, recall its combination, and enter an answer in the trainer. Select Windows or Mac, check Keyboard and Practice language, then choose an app or category from the learning library. Click the task area and press the combination. For a sequence, enter its stages in order. If Safe answer is active, use written key names or on-screen keys. Use Hint, Show answer, Back and Skip / Continue as needed. Revealing the answer does not count as solving it. Train again restarts the completed collection.

Use Capture system keys and exit safely

Capture keeps more available shortcuts inside the full-screen trainer, but cannot block every operating-system key. In browsers that support it, capture is armed when a task opens: the button shows Capture starts with your first key, and your first key or click in the task opens full screen and starts capture. The button then shows Capture on · exit. If the button shows Capture system keys, choose it to start. Siri, screenshots, app switching and custom or protected system shortcuts can still respond. Open Capture limits; use written answers or on-screen keys for commands that remain reserved. Press Esc or the active capture button to exit; capture then stays off until you choose the button again. Use written answer releases capture and focuses the answer field. After focus or full screen is interrupted, your next key starts capture again. Turn off Start capture automatically with the first key in Capture limits to keep the manual start. Force Quit and Task Manager remain system controls.
