On Windows, every key in the table uses Ctrl in place of Cmd. For example, Search is Ctrl+F, and Open in Terminal is Ctrl+Alt+T. Rows 8 and 11 do not change. Three rows differ:

  • Move to Recycle Bin: Ctrl+Backspace or Delete.
  • Delete permanently: Ctrl+Shift+Backspace or Shift+Delete.
  • Space opens and closes the Details sidebar, because Windows has no Quick Look.
