In Visual Studio Code, can I change multiple keyboard shortcuts at once?

Question

I want to change all default keyboard shortcuts starting with 'Ctrl + K' to something else (say 'Alt + K'). Is there any way in Visual Studio Code to do that at once?

I know that it can be done by selecting one Keyboard shortcut at a time, but is there a way to do this all at once, something similar to Find/Replace of keyboard shortcuts?

This might help:

• f1 -> open keyboard shortcuts.
• Press brackets button on top right.
• Cut all of your preferences and save them in another file without the first and last square brackets.
• First step again.
• Search for ctrl k .
• Select the first one - press and hold delete -> Delete all of them (This is easy!).
• On the top right click on the brackets button. (Open keyboard shortcuts(json)).
• Deleted shortcuts have been added to this file with a - behind them on the command value. Each have an opening bracket, key value, command value, and closing bracket.
• Select one of the opening brackts, then press and hold ctrl + d .
• Double press down arrow, then home button.
• Delete the first - from all of the command values with this trick.
• Then go to the key values and change them all to what you want. Please note that some of them may be in ctrl+k+... form, but some others in ctrl+alt+k+... or ctrl+shift+k+... form. You can't change them with this trick!
