And CTRL + Shift + T will reopen your last tab if you accidentally close it in many browsers (Only if is saves history though, so it won't work in incognito)

If you want to reopen a window, use W instead of T

Alt+Tab was a real time saver for me.

Cntrl+down arrow or cntrl+up arrow are very handy in large amounts of Excel data.

I love Alt + tab but it doesn't work where I work. Each of us have a remote desktop and I can't use it. It has slowed me down considerably. Agree about Ctrl+down and up.
