Visual Studio find out what command is assigned to an hotkey

I've installed a Visual Studio plugin that redefines some hotkeys. I need to come back to the standard hotkeys of Visual Studio for some of them. I know that under Tools->Options->Environment->Keyboard I can redefine the hotkeys, and I did it. The problem is that now it seems that my hotkey Ctrl-E, C has two command associated, the plugin one and the standard one. When I press that combination visual studio runs the plugin command and not the standard one.

The problem is that I don't know the plugin-command name so I can't dissociate it unless I go through all the command to see the associated hotkeys. Is there a way to discover commands associated to a specific hotkey?

As of 2025, follow @fastmultiplication's answer, but use "Keyboard Shortcut Exporter" extension instead of "Keyboard Shortcut Explorer".

The Keyboard Shortcut Extension can help. It produces a text file with a block of entries listing all your current shortcuts like this:

<command shortcut="Ctrl+M, Ctrl+E" name="Edit.ExpandCurrentRegion" />

You can then search for the command in the exported file using the shortcut.

You can try to assign this shortcut to another command and then you will receive info that this shortuct is already used by [your command]:
