I'm used to the classic redo shortcut on all Adobe app Ctrl+Shift+Z.
However, it seems that shortcut change on Lightroom Classic to become Ctrl+Y (as in the Office and MS world).

 

How to get back the old and classic shortcut ?
even Adobe didn't update that change in their website :

Thank you.

Correct answer ThibaultD

"But currently, Ctl+Shift+Z is working with all my other apps (Premiere, Photoshop, ...)"

 

That of course makes it less likely it's a background utility.  But it's quick to try rebooting into Safe Mode just to verify. 


Hello, I reinstalled Windows et so Lightroom and it's working fine now. Thank you for your help.

Are you using an AZERTY keyboard?

Hello Rikk,

Yes I'm using an AZERTY keybord. I allready try to map a QWERTY keyboard, still doesn't work.

I tried my AZERTY keyboard and Ctrl Shift Z correctly invokes Redo on my Windows 10 and 11 test machines -- this is consistent with you observing the problem occurs with QWERTY too.  There's obviously something particular to your LR installation or Windows settings.

 

Perhaps you have a background utility that's globally assigned Ctrl Shift Z.  For example, the graphic card manufacturer AMD has utilities that are notorious for globally assigning Ctrl Shift <letter> shortcuts.  I think the easiest way to verify that is to try rebooting into Windows Safe Mode and see if the problem still occurs.

  • First up, what exact LrC version do you have?
  • Second up, the link you posted is for Lightroom Desktop, a.k.a Lightroom Ecosystem (Cloud Based) Lr, Not Lightroom Classic LrC.
  • Third, if LrC, what Redo?
  • Forth, I see no CTRL + Y in the link below.

 

see: https://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom-classic/help/keyboard-shortcuts.html

 

Ok, see this reference instead:

https://www.lightroomqueen.com/keyboard-shortcuts/

and select the correct a--.

 

Cntrl + Z should be UNDO/Redo, at least in Library.

Hi

  • I have version 12.2 of LrC
  • Ok, didn't know that second app for Lightroom CC. However, in your link, redo shortcut isn't listed.
