How do I change a system default keyboard shortcut? Ctrl+shift+S brings up a system info box not save as.

CTRL+Shift+S brings up system info window no matter what program I'm using. I would prefer not to install any software to fix this if possible. I'm running Vista.

You don't need to change anything to use the shortcut Save As...

The keyboard shortcut for it is Ctrl+S.

That is almost universal for PCs.

Ctrl+S is "save", not "save as"....Ctrl+Shift+S is "save as" by default, and something has changed this on prozaciswacks' pc

If this is on a new pc, several manufacturers re-map that key combo to system information. Look in start/all programs for a folder with the name of the pc maker. For example, if it is an HP....Start->All Programs->HP and right click on HP System Information. Go to Properties and you will see a section for "Shortcut Key". Delete the info there and "save as" should be resoted to the key combo after you close out.

No Properties Tab on my HP System Information Window.
This is a really annoying thing HP have done.
Hijacking commonly used shortcuts for their pop ups.
