Steps to Reproduce:

1. Turn on U.S. International keyboard in Windows.
2. Open file in Visual Studio Code.
3. Type AltGr+u

Reproduces without extensions: No

Issue does NOT occur without extensions. However searching keybindings for Alt+u does not find anything.

Issue does NOT occur for the other Spanish characters (¡¿ÁáÉéÍíÑñÓóÚÜü), just ú when entered as AltGr+u.

Issue does NOT occur when entering ú via '+u.

@alexandrudima do you have an idea why this could happen even if no extension defines the short cut.

@GeorgeHernandez can you check the contribution for each of your extensions to see whether they do define such a short cut. And can you selectively disable ( can be done in the extension viewlet) the extensions to see if we can find the extension that causes the problem

TLDNR: I've isolated it to the "Language Support for Java(TM by Red Hat" extension, but cannot be sure about the "Debugger for Java" extension.

Given [all, debug, java] where:

• all: Enabled status of all extensions except for the Debug and Java extensions.
• debug: Enabled status of the "Debugger for Java" extension.
• java: Enabled status of the "Language Support for Java" extension.

I have tested the permutations for the issue:

• [0,0,0] -> No
• [0,0,1] -> Yes
• [0,1,0] -> N/A. The Debugger is dependent on the Java extension.
• [0,1,1] -> Y
• [1,0,0] -> N
• [1,0,1] -> Y
• [1,1,0] -> N/A. The Debugger is dependent on the Java extension.
• [1,1,1] -> Y

As you can see it only happens when the Java extension is on. Since the Debugger extension is dependent on the Java extension, I could not determine if the former would also cause the issue if the Java extension were fixed.

This is indeed caused by redhat.java. From their package.json:

 "keybindings": [
      {
        "command": "java.projectConfiguration.update",
        "key": "ctrl+alt+u",
        "mac": "cmd+alt+u",
        "when": "editorFocus"
      }

@GeorgeHernandez I wonder why ctrl+alt+u did not show up when you searched for alt+u. Did you use the keybindings UI for searching or did you open the keybindings.json. Both should have shown in this case the ctrl+alt+u binding when searching for alt+u.

P.S. AltGr == Ctrl+Alt+

@aeschli do you have an idea.

@GeorgeHernandez please file the issue against the vscode java extension GitHub repository.
