Let’s discuss the SCCM Keyboard Shortcuts. SCCM console shortcuts are handy in some scenarios, like during demos, training sessions, etc. We can just “show off” that we have some handy SCCM CB Console keyboard shortcuts.
This video post will discuss some very useful SCCM Console keyboard shortcuts. How many of you have used MMC keyboard shortcuts with the SCCM 2007 MMC console? Those MMC shortcuts won’t work with SCCM CB versions.
The SCCM CB preview version introduced new keyboard shortcuts, such as CTL + M, CTL + T, etc. I’m not a frequent user of SCCM console keyboard shortcuts, but I think they could be useful at times.
As you can see in the video below, I have not used MOUSE at all to move around the SCCM CB console.

Ctrl + M Sets focus on the main (central) pane. As I showed in the video, you can select each computer using the CTL + M SCCM CB console keyboard shortcut.
As I showed in the video, the left pane selects users, devices, and user collections. Ctrl + T – Sets focus on the navigation pane’s top node. If the focus was already in that pane, the focus is set to the last node you visited.
