Visual Studio Keyboard Shortcut of quick watch (shift + F9) Not Working

Question

My quick watch ( shift + F9 ) shortcut suddenly is not working. But its alternate keyboard chord Control + Alt + Q works fine.

And all other shortcut seems working fine. But quick watch is the only one that I currently found.

I have tried other shortcut with Shift or with F9 , no problem.

I am also using Resharper, is that affecting VS Shift F9?

Answer 1

If you have Snag-It installed on your machine, its global shortcuts may override application specific shortcuts in Visual Studio (or other apps).

See @nuri's answer here: Visual Studio 2010 QuickWatch window not visible for instructions and screen-shots to change the Snag-It settings.

In the meantime, just go into the Snag-It preferences, the HotKeys tab, and set the "Video capture start/pause/resume" hot key to something other than [Shift]-[F9]. For myself, I only use "Global capture", so I set everything else to "None".

You can try the following:

In TOOLS --> Options | Keyboard , make sure the right mapping scheme is selected (Visual C# 2005 for me) and click Reset and finally, Ok
