    2. Click on your profile picture and select Settings.
    3. Navigate to Keyboard Shortcuts.
    4. Find the shortcut for Ctrl+Alt+C and disable it or reassign it to a different key combination.

    Step 2: Reassign the Keyboard Shortcut in Word 365

    1. Open Microsoft Word.
    2. Click on File in the top-left corner and then select Options.
    3. In the Word Options window, click on Customize Ribbon.
    4. Under the "Customize the Ribbon and keyboard shortcuts" section, click the Customize button for "Keyboard shortcuts".
    5. In the Categories section, select the category that contains the command you want to assign the shortcut to.

    Additional Tips

    • If the shortcut still does not work, you may need to restart your computer to ensure all changes take effect.
    • Ensure that no other applications are using the same shortcut, as this can cause conflicts.
