Shortcuts stop working

Question

I installed the latest version of Adobe Lightroom and now my keyboard shortcuts stop working at mid session. When I open Lightroom, everything works, but after a few minutes most the shortcuts simply won't work anymore.

I have to shut down the application and open it again. It is quite annoying....

Hey, marcus_4477. Welcome to the Lightroom Community.

I'll need more details to help you. What version of Lightroom and Windows are you using? Does this happen with a software or application update? Has this occurred before? Do keyboard shortcuts work in other applications?

If they do, try resetting the Lightroom preferences.

Reset Procedure:

1. Close Lightroom.

2. Hold down [Alt/Opt]+[Shift] while restarting Lightroom.

3. Overwrite the Preferences when prompted by the dialog.

4. Close Lightroom.

5. Restart Lightroom.

Let us know how it goes.

Thanks,

Shivani
