So the short cut key to minimize a browser window is ' windows key + M '

What would be the opposite of this? How do I maximize the browser window, or bring the window back up.

I can't believe they would tell me how to minimize it with out telling me how to bring it back up.

Well, let's say you have email Outlook, browser, word document, Excel spreadsheet all minimized on your task bar and you want the magic key to bring it back up, how does Windows know which one you want?

When you use Win + M the program that is running on 'top' or in front of others is the one that gets minimized.

The answer is actually Alt + Tab, this will cycle through all the programs running.

Alt + Tab to bring back a program you just minimized.

These shortcut keys work on any program, not just your browser.

<Alt>+<Space>, then press <N> to minimize the window.
<Alt>+<Space>, then press <X> to maximize it.

<Windows> + <Shift> + <M> is the undo version of Windows+M
