By default my Windows 8.1 system uses the German keyboard layout. Atmel Studio seems to have detected that during the installation, as some keyboard shortcuts use German characters (e.g. ß).

Due to easier access to all the relevant special characters ([]{}/\) I exclusively use the US keyboard layout for programming. I tried to find a way to convince Atmel Studio to change the default shortcuts to a specific language; I even changed the language of the IDE but without success.

I thought that there might be exported settings on the web which would allow me to import the English default keyboard shortcuts, but a google search was unsuccessful. The obvious solution would be to manually change the shortcuts but that's the brute force approach.

How can I use the default shortcuts for a different keyboard layout?

The solution should have been obvious. I needed to restart Atmel Studio after changing the language.
