Just a note: You do not have to be on the desktop to invoke the Windows key + Pause key combination, this can be done from any window. Also, in Windows XP, you can hit the Escape key to close the window after viewing the system information, but it seems that in Windows 7 and up, it requires Alt + F4 .
