Via Apple Support:
To learn more shortcuts, check the menus of the app you're using.
Every app can have its own shortcuts, and shortcuts that work in one app may not work in another.

Via Microsoft Support:
Check the menus of apps for accelerator keys.
If a letter of a word is underlined in a menu, it usually means you can press the Alt key and the underlined key together instead of clicking that menu item.
