The biggest life changing function in Windows. Used to close Chrome in Computer Science classes. It is also used in online classes to mute the volume of teacher. Thanks Microsoft for this stuff
My teacher asked me to volume down and I told him to press Alt+F4. I escaped from an online class

The (not so) secret key combo that every teen must know. Pressing Alt+F4 on an active window closes that window instantly, which is useful especially if you're on something you're not supposed to be on. It works on Windows and Linux, however on Mac, you must instead press command + Q, and if you use a Chromebook, the closest you will get to alt+f4 is Ctrl + Shift + Q, which logs you out if pressed two times.
Seriously, Alt+f4 can be a life saver, especially at class or if you have overprotective/strict parents that makes your house look like North Korea

The command to finish your homework quickly.
(Note: Some people will say it's a shortcut to close your application, but they are just trying to hide the truth.
Person 1: This is taking to long! Person 2, could you help me with my homework?
Person 2: Aah, yes! I know the command to finish it automatically!
Person 1: Really? What is it?
Person 2: Alt+F4.
