Just does the same thing as alt-f4, except it's faster. Try it yourself... You should get a pop-up. Just does the same thing as alt-f4, except it's faster. Try it yourself... You should get a pop-up.

This answer would depend on the OS/platform and application you are on/in.

For example, on windows in firefox it will display the menu bar.

you may want to look up your specific os and app to find out what that key does.

Depends on the Operating System. On a Mac the F10 key is used to Mute the volume. In Windows is has no use except if you are using MS Word. Press it when using Word and it activates the menu bar. It is also used in combination with other keys. Shift + F10 = Display a short cut menu

CTRL + F10 = Maximize the document window

CTRL + Shift + F10 = Activate the ruler

Alt + F10 = Maximize the program window.

On a Mac it shows all open windows for the program you are running.

It may also be used by manufactures to do certain things. On some laptops it increase screen brightness. It also will enter the CMOS setup on Windows.

What is the F10 function key in Excel?

The F10 key in Excel activates the menus. It does the same as pressing the Alt key by itself. In older versions of Excel, up to Excel 2003, menus were used and the Alt or F10 key activated the menu bar. They both work in versions of Excel from 2007 onwards to activate key tips, so that you can use keyboard combinations for certain activities that would have been on the menus on older versions. You can also use F10 with other keys. SHIFT+F10 displays the shortcut menu for a selected item. ALT+SHIFT+F10 displays the menu or message for an Error Checking button. CTRL+F10 maximizes or restores the selected workbook window.
