    Is there a way to unbind Ctrl + Shift + Q?


    Ctrl + Shift + Q opens up my sound taskbar whenever pressed. I'm trying to figure out if I can unbind it since it gets in the way of a game where I press those buttons and I can't change them.

    CTRL+SHIFT+8 and some others not working

    Okay thanks. Didn't know that tool.
    It does list Ctrl+Shift+, 3 & 8. But it doesn't say what they're registered to. (And nothing seems to happen when I press them.)

    The tool turns up a very short list, by the way, compared to the screenshots on that site. Just these three plus:
    Hot Key : Alt+Ctrl+Delete
    Hot Key : Alt+Ctrl+J (I know what this is from)
    Hot Key : Alt+Ctrl+K (Kindle)
    Hot Key : Alt+F4

    Windows 10 KB4467682 changes, ctrl+shift+e ?

    Hi Muralidhar,

    I performed the steps as you provided, and the option was already set to off. Toggling it to ensure the setting has stuck, did not resolve the problem. HotKeyList still shows

    Ctrl+Shift+E

    Ctrl+Shift+Q

    Ctrl+Shift+W

    as new;y added hotkeys that seemingly serve no purpose other than to take control over those combinations. Only Ctrl+Shift+E is what I am concerned about.

    I wish there was a way to determine exactly what application or service had the need for these keys.

    Thanks again, but so far no luck.

    How to delete shortcut Ctrl + Shift?

    Hi,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    For better clarity, please help us with the details requested below:



    • Have you assigned the “Ctrl + Shift” shortcut for any application?


    Ideally, the shortcut Ctrl + Shift is used to switch the keyboard layout when multiple keyboard layouts are available. If you have assigned the shortcut for a keyboard layout, you may try changing it by following the steps mentioned below:



    1. Press Windows Logo key + I, to open
      Settings.
    2. Click on Devices and select
      Typing       on the left pane.
    3. Scroll down and select Advanced keyboard settings.
    4. Click on Input language hot keys.
    5. Select the layout for which you have assigned the shortcut and click on
      Change Key Sequence.
    6. Under Switch Keyboard Layout, select
      Not assigned.
    7. Click on OK (Twice).


    Let us know the results.



    Regards,
