Just in case someone is still looking for a solution.

I'm using windows 10, I have 2 languages (English-US and Arabic), everything was cool, then it suddenly stopped working.

After trying multiple stuff, I figured out that keyboard shortcuts with the arabic language selected will only work if I had the "Windows Display Language" set to English (United States). The reason it stopped was because I had changed it to English (UK), because I use want the date format DD/MM/YYYY (THE RIGHT WAY, Obviously).

I don't know why. But it works this way.

Tip: If you want to set display language to US and keep the regional format as UK without having 2 english keyboards, then just add it through the control panel (the old thing), not through "setting".
