Ctrl + R Shortcut: Right Align Text and Refresh Browser Pages

Ctrl + R
The Ctrl + R shortcut is commonly used in word processors and text editing applications to align the selected text or paragraph to the right. On macOS, the equivalent is Command + R.

In most web browsers (such as Chrome, Firefox, and Edge), pressing Ctrl + R will reload or refresh the current page. On macOS browsers, this function is typically done with Command + R.
💡 Pro Tip:
In documents, use Ctrl + R for right alignment. In browsers, quickly refresh a page with Ctrl + R — or press Ctrl + Shift + R for a hard refresh (clearing cache).
