In Windows, you can use the cut, copy, and paste functions with keyboard shortcuts. These shortcuts are standard across many applications. Here are the commonly used keyboard shortcuts:

1. Cut:
   • Select the text or file you want to cut.
   • Press Ctrl + X.
2. Copy:
   • Select the text or file you want to copy.
   • Press Ctrl + C.
3. Paste:
   • Place the cursor where you want to paste the text or file.
   • Press Ctrl + V.

These keyboard shortcuts work in a variety of applications, including text editors, word processors, file browsers, and more. They are particularly useful for moving or duplicating content quickly without using the right-click context menu or toolbar options.
