How to fix?

Best Answer

One solution is to add the shortcut manually.

However, the first thing we'll do before adding the shortcut manually is to see if it's there, and if a reset would fix it.

First, go into the Settings.

Second, go to devices, then go to keyboard. Then see if the shortcut is on there. Hit "reset all" and see if it brings it back. Maybe reopen the settings just in case to see if the shortcut comes back. If that fails then do the manual solution:

  1. Return to the keyboard settings.
  2. Go all the way to the bottom of the list where a "+" button exists. Click on it.
  3. After that, give it a name (like "open terminal") and a command, which will be "gnome-terminal"
  4. Then after that, click on the "set shortcut" button, and enter in your hotkey shortcut. Exit out and you're done.

Hopefully that helps.
