I have searched this forums, but didn't find any answer.

I program in C++/MFC.

If I press Alt + G the Debugger Menu of Visual Studio is always opening,
I can do what I want, but cannot jump to any definition.

Is there a possibility to prevent the opening of the Debugger Menu ?

If you go to:

IDE Tools menu -> Customize...

then Commands tab, and make sure the Menu bar radio button is selected, and the "Menu Bar" is selected in the pull down list of menus, you will have the option to select the "Debug" menu and then use the "Modify Selection" button. This will let you edit the name of the menu item, so moving or even removing the & which sets the keyboard shortcut for opening this menu.

Or you can change the keyboard shortcut in the settings:

IDE tools menu -> Options -> Environment -> Keyboard

for the command "VAssistX.GotoImplementation" so it doesn't clash with the menu.

On my system, the Debug menu is opened with Alt-D so it doesn't clash.

Changed the menu title of visual studio from "Debug&gen" to "Debuggen" in the german edition, but afterwards Alt + G does not work.

In the environment/keyboard dialog I pressed Alt+G and it is implemented for VAssistX.GotoImplementation of the Text-Editor, not global.

But I still have problems with Alt + G. It doesnt work in VS2022.

But there are enough other possibilities to do so, for example with Strg and click with left mouse button on the appearing link.

Microsoft seems to have implemented some features of Visual Assist. Grrrrrr......

Alt-G should "just work". It does for me.

What happens if you use the menu commands:

VAssistX -> Goto Implementation
VAssistX -> Goto Related
VAssistX -> Goto Member...

this avoids the keyboard shortcuts, and any possible problems there. We need to see if the commands work, or if its just using the keyboard shortcut to call the command that is the problem.
