Environment

Windows build number: Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.18362.657]
Windows Terminal version (if applicable): 0.9.433.0

Steps to reproduce

I have this shortcuts define in my config:

{
        "command": "splitHorizontal",
        "keys": [ "alt+shift+(" ]
      },
      {
        "command": "splitVertical",
        "keys": [ "alt+shift+)" ]
      },

I have English US Keyboard or Czech Programing Keyboard

  • Shortcur worksas expected (Pressing "alt+shift+9/0" do a split)

I have Czech QUERTY Keyboard

  • Shortcuts do not workd "alt+shift+(" do nothing (As expected, cause the layout of keyboard is different )
  • Then I switch to US Keyboard or Czech Programing Keyboard
  • Shortcut do not work, "alt+shift+(" do nothing (Pressing "alt+shift+9/0" do nothing)

So, behind the scenes keyboard shortcuts are bound to "keyboard key identifiers". The determination of what those key identifiers are happens when the settings file is loaded.

I bet that this is a /dupe of #1125 -- not because of environment variables, but because "keyboard" is one of the settings Windows sends out a broadcast notification for.
