CTRL + SHIFT + NUMBER changed to CTRL + ALT + NUMBER again for file explorer and I hate this. Can I reset to the shift number shortcut?

I'm in Windows 10 v2004 latest update. Previously the shortcut still works on the same update (v2004). But somehow, someday, my experienced was ruined by the changed file view shortcut from lovely CTRL + SHIFT + NUMBERS to annoyingly CTRL + ALT + NUMBER. Why? The newer shortcut is not even better, it just ruin the experience that I have to move my thumb from SPACEBAR to ALT everytime.

Does anyone have a solution for this?

Please, don't tell me to restore defaults from Folder Options menu, I already try that out and it doesn't change. It has nothing to do with visibility settings, ONLY KEYBOARD SHORTCUTS.

    Hi, unfortunately I am not using Microsoft issued mouse and keyboard. Instead I have Logitech G512 and G300S gaming set. Plus like I said, the problem should never be the hardware keyboard itself rather than software on Windows that keeps changing overtime.

    Any suggestion would help.

    The system has not changed keyboard shortcuts in any update, surely this is related to what you are trying to do, is it referring to a shortcut for what function exactly?

    -Keep everything up to date with the system (right click start, settings, update and security, check for update. Also visit the video card/mother board/BIOS manufacturer's website to see if there are any drivers to update)

    I await your reply.

    Graciously,

    Claudeir
