"Ctrl+Shift+Right/Left" doesn't select a word in Eclipse as it ought to do
I'm using Eclipse 2019-12 (Java) on Windows 10 Pro and I cannot get Ctrl+Shift+Right/Left to select a word as it ought to do. When I press the keys nothing at all happens.
The Preferences seems to be just fine.

It turns out to be a bug in the Eclipse IDE's Welcome Tab.
If the checkbox "Always show Welcome at start up" (in the Eclipse IDE's Welcome Tab) is checked,
then the Ctrl+Shift+Left/Right doesn't work.
The solution:
Uncheck the checkbox "Always show Welcome at start up" and restart Eclipse.
