I have changed the default shortcuts at work and want to synchronize at home.

Is there a way to export and import only the shortcuts?

I'm using Visual Studio 2015 Community Edition.

Try Tools --> Import and Export Settings from Visual Studio. You can deselect all the options except "All Settings --> Options --> Environment --> Keyboard".

This procedure creates a file .vssettings that you can import at home.

  • I think that it will works. I exported right now and will test at home soon. – Ricardo França Jul 25 '16 at 12:24
  • Unfortunately it doesn't work for me :( I have comment/uncomment under ctrl + / whereas one of them is texteditor config and other is global one of them was moved properly. – Reven May 20 '20 at 09:35
  • Worked like a charm on two corporate PCs with Visual Studio 2019, CodeMaid and ReSharper (and as you can imagine a quite long list of custom shortcuts ;)). Thank you! – ecth Jun 09 '21 at 13:51
