    Removing windows Control-shift shortcut


    Hello,

    I use Mathematica A LOT, and almost all the shortcuts involve a Ctrl + Shift combination. However, the windows shortcut to switch your keyboard layout is Ctrl + Shift, and I use multiple layouts but do not often switch between them (and cannot remove them for some reason). This has caused considerable frustration. Is there a way to disable the Windows Ctrl + Shift shortcut?

    Thanks!

    :)

    Windows 10 start to beep when left control and shift pressed

    Windows 10 suddenly start to beep when left control and shift are pressed,

    It is annoying, and also prevent me using applications shortcut which consist of control shift and some key.

    I disabled sticky keys, and almost all startup application, restarted windows, but nothing helped.

    should I reinstall windows?

  3. Some builtin shortcuts not working with "Left Shift" key

    Some shortcuts with "shift" key do not work at all with the "left shift" but
    work only with "right shift"


    I checked other shortcuts that whether the shift is Lshift or Rshift does not matter.

    These are the shortcuts I've found so far... :

    Ctrl-Shift-Enter (run as administrator)

    Ctrl-Shift-P (Launch InPrivate window in Edge Browser)

    Notice that Switch Input Language and Switch Keyboard Layout can't have the same sequence. To avoid using CTRL + SHIFT you can for instance set Switch Input Language to Grave Accent and Switch Keyboard Layout to Left Alt + SHIFT.
