Hey guys.

I got strange problem with Illustrator 29.7.1. Shortcut CTRL + WIN is duplicating Ctrl + [ shortcut sending selection backward. Is it normal behaviour? Can somone help me to stop Illustrator using CTRL + WIN shortcut.

Thank you.

Is the shortcut assigned correctly in the Keyboard shortcuts?

 

Shortcuts not working correctly can be caused by corrupted preferences as well as by interfering third party apps. You can try and launch Illustrator in Safe Mode as well as quit Illustrator and rename the preferences folder. Illustrator will then create a new one without erasing your original one. SO you can test it.

@Pavol250935025vhk you create you own custom keyboard shortcuts!
