📎 AI Summary:
The thread discusses ways to efficiently navigate between multiple virtual desktops in Windows 10. The original poster, seeking a shortcut to jump directly to a specific desktop (e.g., desktop 5), asks if there's a quicker method than the default Win + Ctrl + Arrow keys. A few suggestions are offered, such as using the Task View icon or the Win + Tab shortcut, but no definitive solution for direct number-based desktop switching is provided, indicating that users may need third-party tools for this functionality.

Hey Guys,

I love the new feature of using virtual desktops in Windows 10.

I am currently using the shortcut Win + Ctrl + Arrows to navigate from one desktop to another.

Do you know if there is a shorter way to get from desktop 1 to 5 without having to jump over desktops 2,3,4?
I used to have a tool called "Desktops v2.0 By Mark Russinovich" for Windows 7 which allowed me to use Strg+1 or any other Shortcut to jump around.

It would be great if somebody knows if this is possible with the Win 10 desktop feature!

Thanks in advance!
Ben
