I just upgraded to Visual Studio 2012 from 2010 and cannot stand the fact that Cntrl + F brings up the new Quick Find dialog in the upper right hand corner of the editor. I typically just dock the Find and Replace window and prefer to use that. Is there a way to disable Cntrl + F from bringing up the new Quick Find window and instead have it move focus to the Find and Replace window similar to how VS 2010 did it?

Instead of modifying the default keyboard shortcuts consider using
Ctrl+Shift+F for "Find in files"
Ctrl+Shift+H for "Replace in files"
Sometimes it's not always possible/advisable to change the default shortcuts. Like when working on another persons computer.

Yes there is. You can assign the keyboard shortcut ctrl+f to edit.findinfiles in tools>options>environment>keyboard. So far it works for me.
