【Resolved!】Pressing "ctrl + shift + c" does not bring up the console.

[tom]

The "wasd" key and other keys respond.
Pressing "ctrl + shift + c" does not bring up the cheat console.
Sometimes it turns into a screenshot.
Does anyone know how to fix this?

Postscript.
No mods are installed.
I have tried restarting and uninstalling the game but to no avail.

The cause is that my graphics board is a Radeon.
ctrl+shift+c was registered as a shortcut to switch the camera on and off.
AMD Software -> Settings -> Hotkeys -> Recording Hotkeys -> Camera Switching -> Delete
to successfully start the cheat console.

Are you holding down CTRL and SHIFT *before * pressing C?

Thanks for taking a look.
Yes, I am pressing ctrl + shift and then "C".

Press and hold CTRL, then while holding CTRL press and hold SHIFT, then press C.
You should be holding CTRL and SHIFT down at the same time then pressing C.
Is that how you're doing it?

I tried both approaches.
The other approach was to hold down the shift key, hold down the control key,
and press the C key.

It did not respond.

I just asked the same thing, and he's replied that yes, he's doing that.

Thank you both!

I know you asked, Ms. Aeleanor. I read all the comments. I wanted to clarify and be absolutely sure. "ctrl + shift then C" could have meant they were pressing the keys separately.

Fixed! Good! I just had an issue with Nvidia's Ansel (screen shot feature) doing that to my games because it activates via a keybind I was pressing. Not sure why it started doing it all of a sudden. I had to use a DOS command to shut the thing off because Nvidia removed the application that controls it in recent updates. :(

Glad you figured it out and got it going, Tom!

I always find it refreshing when someone can troubleshoot/solve their own problems. Thanks for showing that some people like you still exist.

They don't speak English very well so they probably couldn't translate:

If you do not leave your cursor in the type box and hit enter the screenshot comes up.

Thanks, tom. It's nice to see someone post a Resolve. It could help another player, in all hopes.
