The Fill shortcut in Photoshop is "Shift + F5" and I use it a lot. All of a sudden, when I use that shortcut, Bridge is opening and the Fill dialog never comes up. Can someone help me disable this opening of Bridge?

You can manually edit the key shortcuts in Photoshop.

Thanks! I'd prefer to keep the default Photoshop shortcut though. I just don't know why Bridge is deciding to open now.

When you go to Edit > Keyboard Shortcut, what does it say in the upper right for the set you are using? If it says "(modified)", then you have an easy fix. Change the set back to the defaults.

 

If the shortcut has been changed, you should be able to navigate to the File menu section to see what the current shortcut is. Also go the the Edit menu section to see what is assigned for Edit > Fill.

 

Take screenshot if you need to. This is the first place to look to see where the problem might be, so we need to know what these settings are.
