Keyboard shortcuts in Visual Studio
You can access a variety of commands and windows in Visual Studio by choosing the appropriate keyboard shortcut. This page lists the default command shortcuts for the General profile, which you might have chosen when you installed Visual Studio. No matter which profile you chose, you can identify the shortcut for a command by opening the Options dialog box, expanding the Environment node, and then choosing Keyboard. You can also customize your shortcuts by assigning a different shortcut to any given command.
For a list of common keyboard shortcuts and other productivity information, see:
