I just wanted to mention as a Mac user that it's always helpful when videos mention that in the video or the description so Mac users know not to even try. But I did love the tips. Thanks!!!

    hi thank you for the video, really helpfull! Consulting company should make intensive training with your video, they might save seconds or minutes per day on consultant, but for x thousands consultants on one year?
    I just have a question ; 'm working on mac as well, and the "alt" and "F4" tricks are not working for me. Do you have an idea of what it could be?

    • @AnalystAcademy
