Key combination doesn't work shift+alt. Separately shift+mouse and alt+mouse works. I have Windows 10. There are no utilities or anything else that could affect this. The situation is the same in Photoshop. The keyboard settings in Illustrator have been changed. Editing - Keyboard shortcut - Program menu - Object - Transform, there are no hotkeys for this command. If I try to fit them there, then only the letters from the keyboard shift, alt, ctrl do not fit. I restarted the programs and rebooted the computer. Nothing helps. What to do?

And what precisely are you using the keys for that they do not work?

I use them for proportional scaling

Smart guides are disabled. I don't know what could be interfering. There is practically nothing installed on the computer. Can you send a screenshot of where exactly to configure the shift + alt combination?

You cannot configure it.

The Alt key is for scaling from the center. Forproportion you only need shift

THis is a list of things that can interfere with modifier keys:

WhatsApp on the web being the active tab in the browser
WebRoot
Apple Terminal
Word, Excel, Powerpoint
»Enable Full Keyboard« in Settings > Accessibility > Keyboard on Mac OS
»Keyboard Navigation« in Apple settings > Keyboard
Apple Mail, Outlook
Spacebar is used as a shortcut by the system
Chrome, Internet Explorer, Safari
Wacom Desktop Center, Wacom settings
Windows Touch Pad problem
LastPass, Bitwarden (password managers)
The VPN
LangSwitcher app (it needs to be closed and disabled)
