Close Windows In a Flash

Posted on Tuesday, December 19, 2006 by Arun Basil Lal

Here is a quite useful hack on using Windows. To close an open window quickly you can use the following methods.

Approach 1:
Move the mouse to the top right corner of the window so that the mouse is over the 'X' button. You need not click at the centre of the button. You can just push your mouse in that direction. As the mouse pointer cannot move out of the window it will automatically come over the 'X' button. Then just click and the window will close.
Using this method you can close the window without even looking to the 'X' button.

Approch 2:
Move the mouse to the lop left corner, over the image of the Folder or the application. You can do this by just pushing the mouse in that direction. As the mouse pointer cannot go out of the window it will reside over this icon automatically. Then double click and the window will close.

Both these methods work with maximised windows only. If windows are in the restored position you cannot do this without moving over to the button. Then use Alt+F4 to close the window !
