       Keyboard shortcuts are preset in the system, but you can add new ones or change them easily. For instance, change the default shortcut Ctrl+Alt+T (Run a Terminal) to Win+R (press R while holding down the Windows key, also known as Super key) by the following steps:


    Keyboard ShortcutsGo To System > Preferences > Keyboard Shortcuts
    Browse to Desktop > "Run a terminal"
    Click on the Shortcut, and it shows "New shortcut..."
    Press Win+R, and it shows Mod4+R
    Click the Close button and try the new shortcut.


  To disable a shortcut, press Backspace when it shows "New shortcut..." after the step 3 above.
