if you are at work doing some staff except working :D and don't want to be caught out by boss use Windows + D shortcut which brings to desktop immediately. also this is useful when you are playing games with border-less window when it's so hard to drag any file from desktop. for example it's impossible to upload picture anywhere, because when you pick some file to drag and drop border-less windowed game will pop up all the time. so use Windows+D shortcut to stay at desktop, no matter what.
