With this keyboard shortcut you can revive your PC if it has hung up and without losing your personal data

Perhaps on occasion you have experienced problems with your PC and it has crashed at the most inopportune moment. The first option that comes to mind is to restart with the command CTLR + ALT + DEL, but there is life beyond this key combination

And is that one of the solutions to revert the problem is through restart the Windows 10 graphic driver, a process in which We are only going to need a key combination and that is going to save us from having to wait for the computer to restart and, incidentally, avoid having to reset it.

Without having to reboot

We have seen different keyboard shortcuts in Windows and one of them is the one that allows us to restart the graphics driver of our PC, a process that can be the solution for some of the most common problems that we can encounter.

This is the Windows key combination + CTRL + Shift + B. A very fast process that takes no more than a few seconds. The only thing you will see is how the screen turns off and you hear a short beep that indicates that everything has been correct.

This process has the advantage that you won't have to restart the computer and incidentally you don't have to worry about not having saved the task which you were working on. After restarting the graphics driver, everything will return to the state you left it in.

It is especially effective if the crash occurs when you are playing a video game or working with a video editor or other program that uses resources from your GPU. The shortcut is an integral part of Windows 10, and works to reset both Intel, NVIDIA and AMD video drivers

If the shortcut does nothing for you, the hang is most likely not related to your graphics card. There you can fall back on the old familiar CTRL + ALT + DEL and see if the system reacts and lets you open Task Manager to kill unresponsive processes. If that doesn't succeed, all you have to do is press that _reset_ button or force-power off the laptop.

The combination that works only on Windows 8/8.1 and Windows 10, resets the graphics subsystem and in many cases can return your PC to life in a crash that seems final.
