What is a Full-Screen Shortcut for all Windows and Mac Apps?

The full-screen shortcut is useful for showing the entire screen of the current document, spreadsheet, or anything of an application.

Unlike maximizing a window, in the whole screen window, all tabs will be hidden. This window is especially useful when the current screen is not sufficient to view or do something.

The full-screen shortcut is useful for all applications like MS Word, Excel Spreadsheets, PowerPoint, Adobe Photoshop, Chrome web browser, VLC media player, Windows media player, etc.
