Windows 10: Finding the target file of a keyboard shortcut

Short version of my question: I'd like to change a keyboard shortcut that starts an app, but I've forgotten the location of the shortcut file that is targeted by the relevant keystrokes. How can I change the keyboard shortcut?

Longer version of my question: I originally set up a keyboard shortcut to start an app (in my case, Search Everything) by creating a shortcut file to the desired .exe, and then right-clicking that shortcut, going to Properties, and defining the keyboard shortcut there. The problem is that I've forgotten where I put that shortcut file, and I've failed to find it through search, which means I can't right-click on it again to change the keyboard shortcut. Is there another way to change the keystroke combination? If not, is there some way I can trace the shortcut file being activated by the keystroke combination, so I can right-click it and change the combo?

The specific nature of the problem, if it matters, is that some time ago I set the keyboard shortcut Alt+Ctrl+S to open "Search Everything." This works great, but as of this year, I'm having to do a considerable amount of work in German, which requires frequent use of the character Eszett (ß) -- and, you guessed it, on the US English-INTL keyboard, ß is mapped to Alt+Ctrl+S.
On my ThinkPad, Alt codes simply don't work (I guess because there's no numpad), so I'm at a loss. The most efficient possible way for me to enter ß is currently to open Character Map, navigate to ß, then Ctrl+C-Alt+Tab-Ctrl+V, which is a serious pain in the neck for a letter that occurs in almost every sentence.
I considered creating a custom keyboard layout solely to map ß to a different key combination, but after dabbling with the Windows Keyboard Layout Creator (not supported by Windows 10) and having my system kind of spaz out because of it, I dropped that idea.

Any help with this would be seriously, tremendously appreciated!

Screensaver shortcut

I did this"
Search Results

I would suggest you to try the following steps and check if that helps.

• Go to the folder C:\Windows\System32 and sort by file type.
• Look for the screensaver file type (.scr).
• Find the file scrnsave.scr(you can choose any of the screensavers).
• Right click and select send to>desktop (create shortcut). The shortcut on my attachment, but when i click on it my screen goes off and on and nothing else.
