You might try resetting preferences. If you reset them manually by renaming the file, you can restore the original if necessary.

Follow the links at the top to "backup preferences" and also to "restore preferences".
If you just installed PS and haven't customized anything, you can reset preferences from Edit > Preferences menu > General tab.

I never bothered to figure out exactly which OS shortcuts, I just quickly correct it from the system tray on the taskbar:
