Hello @Jason Hunter ,

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A forum.

Yes, the keyboard shortcut is Ctrl + E, T.

You can try to press Ctrl + E and then release them, after that press T, to open the Test Explorer window.

Update1:

Please confirm if the TestExplorer.ShowTestExplorer command has been assigned to Ctrl+E, T keyboard shortcuts in Tools > Options... > Environment > Keyboard > find and click to select the "Press shortcut keys:" box > press Ctrl+E, T on your keyboard > check the "Shortcut currently used by:" box.

If it was assigned, please double check if you press the keyboard shortcuts correctly => press Ctrl and E together, and then release them together, after that just press T and release it.

If it wasn't assigned, please try to type "TestExplorer.ShowTestExplorer" in "Show commands containing:" box, select it from the list and press the shortcut keys that you want in the "Press shortcut keys:" box and click the Assign button to assign this customized keys to this command. Check if it works.

Have a great day.

Sincerely,

Tianyu
