While debugging, CTRL is active, so pressing Shift+F5 causing program to restart debugging, as if Ctrl+Shift+F5 was pressed.

Whilst this is a simple issue, it has been annoying me for years so I felt it was worth reporting. Perhaps you can just do a clear of the CTRL key status when Visual Studio receives focus?
Details (expand)

Visual Studio/Team Foundation Server/.NET Framework Tooling version

Visual Studio 2010

Steps to reproduce

Run a C# web site under the debugger. While running, switch into Visual Studio and press Shift+F5.

Product Language

English

Operating System

Windows 7

Operating System Language

English

Actual results

Web site is restarted, as if Ctrl+Shift+F5 was pressed. It seems that the Ctrl key is down, as pressing the ctrl key once clears this behaviour.

Expected results

Program should stop debugging.

This is easy to reproduce:
Run a C# project in debug mode, select a code window, attempt to paste something using Ctrl+V, Popup is shown, click ok, then hit Shift+F5 to stop attempt to stop debugging, VS 2010 SP1 still thinks Ctrl is being held down, so the debugging is restarted. This is rather annoying...

Thanks for reporting the issue.

In order to fix the issue, we must first reproduce the issue in our labs. We are unable to reproduce the issue with the steps you provided.

Please export and reset environment settings file by clicking Tools-> Import and Export Settings, after that, please send it to us so that we can conduct further.

Please try this (from a Visual Studio command prompt with devenv in the path):

devenv /resetuserdata

Thanks again for your efforts and we look forward to hearing from you.
