Keyboard shortcuts work, but don't show up on menus

Can anyone tell me how to fix the following problem in Lightroom Classic CC. Keyboard shortcuts

seem to work, but they don't show up in the menus. For example on my Mac when I right-click an

image and select "Edit In" I see "Edit in Adobe Photoshop CC 2018" but I have no keyboard shortcut

listed. However if I hit "Cmd-E" it works. Not having the shortcuts show up in the menus makes it difficult

for me to learn the shortcuts. Things I have already tried are

1. Trashing my preferences file,

2. Uninstalling and re-installing Lightroom.

Nothing has worked so far. Any suggestions?

A good resource for learning keyboard shortcuts is Victoria Bampton's comprehensive list: https://www.lightroomqueen.com/keyboard-shortcuts/ . (Adobe does a mediocre job of documenting shortcuts and including them in the menu bar.)

Does [CTRL+/] work for you?    (Keyboard shortcut-  Hold down CTRL and press /    the key with a question mark)

The shortcuts shown are specific to the module you are currently using.

Regards. My System: Windows-11, Lightroom-Classic 15.3, Photoshop 27.5, ACR 18.3, Lightroom 9.3, Lr-iOS 10.4.0, Bridge 16.0.3 .

Neither do I and neither does anyone else with the Right Click popup menu on the image. But they are there in the main menu bar menus.

How about if you Right Click you are going to select something for that popup menu. So why included the keyboard shortcut.

If you left click on a main menu bar item you could be looking for a certain option and the keyboard shortcut for it.
