Windows 10 File Explorer shortcuts Ctrl+Shift+'n'

Hi

I posted a question about this 3 years ago and I wondered if anyone has found a solution?

As a reminder, File Explorer should allow you to quickly switch views using Ctrl+Shift+'n', e.g.

Ctrl+Shift+1 Change View to Extra Large Icons

Ctrl+Shift+2 Change View to Large Icons

Ctrl+Shift+3 Change View to Medium Icons

Ctrl+Shift+4 Change View to Small Icons

Ctrl+Shift+5 Change View to List View

Ctrl+Shift+6 Change View to Details View

Following a Windows 10 upgrade 3 years I changed my Word spellchecker to default to English (UK) from English (US) and the Change View stopped functioning. I proved it was this that caused the problem by switching it back and forth a few times resulting in it working then non-working.

I'm not looking for a long-winded fix for something so minor, such as suggested by someone on my original post, but has anyone had the same issue and managed to resolve it?

Thanks in advance

Rick

Windows 10 File Explorer shortcuts Ctrl+Shift+'n' stopped working

Hi

The extremely useful shortcuts (Ctrl+Shift+'n') within File Explorer has suddenly stopped working.

There was an automatic Windows update a few days ago and I believe the last time I used the shortcuts was before this update. These shortcuts worked as follows...

Ctrl+Shift+1 Change View to Extra Large Icons

Ctrl+Shift+2 Change View to Large Icons

Ctrl+Shift+3 Change View to Medium Icons

Ctrl+Shift+4 Change View to Small Icons

Ctrl+Shift+5 Change View to List View

Ctrl+Shift+6 Change View to Details View

Elsewhere I have seen a couple of other Windows 10 users reporting the same issue but I have not yet tracked down a fix.

As far as I can tell all of my other keyboard shortcuts are working.

I am on a 9 month old Dell Inspiron 17 5770 Laptop.

Is there a setting I can apply to get the shortcuts back please?

Thanks in advance
