Question

In most software applications, what does Ctrl + S do if pressed multiple times?

A.

Updates the saved file

B.

Reverts the document

C.

Saves a new copy each time

D.

Deletes the previous version

Correct option is A


The correct answer is (a) Updates the saved file
Explanation:
· Ctrl + S is a universal shortcut used for saving the current document or file.
· When pressed repeatedly, it simply updates the same saved file, overwriting the previous unsaved changes with the latest version in memory.
· It is a crucial shortcut for ensuring data integrity and improving productivity.
· It does not trigger the "Save As" function, nor does it create multiple files or delete earlier versions.
Information Booster:
· Ctrl + Shift + S often triggers the “Save As” dialogue in many applications (like Microsoft Office), allowing the user to save a new copy or change the file format.
· Modern software often includes Autosave features that complement, but do not replace, the use of Ctrl + S.
Additional Knowledge:
· Other common universal shortcuts: Ctrl + Z for Undo; Ctrl + A for Select All; Ctrl + P for Print.
