Yes, I have gone to "Manage options" and reset all settings.
When I press ctrl+shift+T, Resharper swaps the selected word with the one on the right. But the way I'm used to, and what I think is standard, is that this shortcut prompts a file search.
Similarly, shift+alt+T swaps lines vertically, and ctrl+T swaps two adjacent characters.
Why is this and what is the cure?
Looks like you're still using the default Visual Studio shortcuts rather than the ReSharper ones.
I believe you'll need to go to ReSharper | Options | Environment - Keyboard & Menus and select your preferred scheme (Visual Studio in this case) and ensure that you press "Apply Scheme" - this should update your Visual Studio defaults.
Note that on that options page it states:
Note: applying a new keyboard scheme does not cancel any keybindings set by the previous scheme. To start from scratch [...] reset the the keyboard bindings to their defaults at Visual Studio Options, Environment | Keyboard page.

After upgrading to Visual Studio 2015, holding control while clicking on a symbol navigates to that symbol definition. In prior versions, this would instead select the entire word.
How can I disable the navigation event when CTRL + Click(ing) a symbol, so that it highlights the word?
I do have Resharper (Ultimate 9.2) installed. The configuration option under Environment -> Search & Navigation -> Go to Declaration on Control + Click in the editor is not checked.
All the search engine results make mention of this being a feature of the Productivity Power Tools extensions in previous versions of Visual Studio. I do not have that extension installed.
I found my solution in the "Options - Text Editor - General" settings. This was on VS 2017 thou.
To disable navigation to symbol definitions in VS2015,
this one worked for me.
With Resharper Ultimate 2016.3.1, I could fix the issue by disabling "Rich mouse navigation in the editor". It can be found in Resharper Options window, under Environment > Search & Navigation.
Maybe updating Resharper could solve the issue.
Also, Productivity Power Tools is not installed on my machine.
In vs 2017 this setting is available in Tools -> Options -> Text Editor -> General -> Enable mouse click to perform Go to Definition.
You can uncheck it!
Go to ReSharper Options > Environment > Search & Navigation, then uncheck the following options:
Rich mouse navigation in the editor
Enable 'Smart go to declaration'
I finally solved it following the info I found on this page..

Ensure you are using Visual Studio as your resharper keyboard scheme.
Environment -> Keyboard & Menus
Tools -> Options -> Environment -> Keyboard
To stop the go to declaration, select it and input a new key short cut for it. In this image I have demonstrated that I changed this short cut to ctr num 1 and could not change it to ctr num 3. On testing crt click does not no take me to the declaration.
Find the shortcut you want to remove, in this case Edit.NavigateTo and remove.
An update for Productivity Power Tools + VS2017. Instead of having settings for this feature, a separate plugin gets installed. So after installing PPTs, you'll have a new extension called Ctrl+Click Go To Definition. Not sure why we need that tool considering it's baked into VS, but...
Anyway, Disabling that extension (plus the other things mentioned in other comments for VS and Resharper) fixed my ctrl+click woes.
To switch to the Visual C# keyboard mapping scheme
On the Tools menu, click Options.
Expand Environment, and then click Keyboard.
Select Visual C# 2005 from the Apply the following application
keyboard mapping scheme drop-down list.
or you can do
Keyboard: CTRL + W
also plugin can be used
Keyboard Shortcut Exporter
you can import/export keymapping file
I changed the shortcut to close a window to Ctrl+W and to close all windows to Ctrl+Shift+W. Close all windows works fine, but Ctrl+W selects the word currently under the cursor but does not close the window.
When I right-click a tab it say Ctrl+W is the shortcut to close it (And also Ctrl+S to save and Ctrl+Shift+W to close all). Why is only the close window shortcut not working?
In Visual Studio (VS 2015 in my case but it's similar down to VS 2010 at least) keyboard shortcuts may have a different meaning depending on the context in which they are executed.
Click Tools / Options / Environment / Keyboard to look up or define shortcuts (you already did that probably). What I called "context" is selected in the combobox labelled "Use new shortcut in:". Most likely you defined the shortcut in "Global" but you want it to work in "Text Editor". In the latter Ctrl+W selects the current word.
Redefine Ctrl+W for "Text Editor" and you should be fine.
I am using Visual Studio 2017 & Visual Studio 2019 and tried the answer from #TobiMcNamobi but it didn't work for me. After few such tries I got it work with below steps.
You should add it as Global shourtcut otherwise it will not work for Designer views.
Add CTRL+W as a Global shortcut for Window.CloseDocumentWindow
Remove the CTRL+W shortcut for Edit.SelectCurrentWord
In Visual Studio 2019 it is Ctrl-F4 by default to CloseDocumentWindow. The action is Window.CloseDocumentWindow. I know this is old but the accepted answer has you change the short-cut key instead. I would rather use the default option.
Tools -> Options -> Environment -> Keyboard
If you're ever unsure go to the path above and you will see the image above then you can click inside the box "Press shortcut key" at the bottom of the form and type the short cut key you're interested in and it will tell you if it is used and what it is currently used for.

In my case, I had to existing assignments that I had to remove. Thereafter, I could use the hotkey.
In my case, the tabs were not closing because I am using Vim extension. I had to add the following lines to Vim settings:
"vim.handleKeys": {
"<C-w>": false
}
Just press Ctrl + , or Command + , for Mac users, search for Vim and go into Edit in settings.json as the following picture shows:

For Visual Studio 2022, make sure you also remove Ctrl+W from selectCurrentWord command.
In my VS Pro 2019, on Tools / Options / Environment / Keyboard, the first line offers using a premade keyboard mapping scheme, with a drop-down option for VSCode keyborad mapping theme.
I picked it and it seems to have adopted the keyboard shortcuts I was used to from working on VSCode, Ctrl+W included.
For those using linux with VSCode v1.56.2,
File --> Preferences --> Keyboard Shortcuts.
Search for View:Close Editor and as mentioned above, remove any keybinding that has the keybinding you want.
I like resharper fine, but with the new pricing, the trial ran out and I want to try life without it.
Except after disabling all the Resharper commands are still bound in my keyboard options! So ctrl+, doesn't fall back to the standard VS behavior because its bound to Resharper.Resharper_GotoRecentEdits which is, of course, disabled.
Even clicking Reset in the keyboard options does not remove the keybindings.
So what the heck. How do I get rid of all the resharper stuff? It is currently suspended and doesn't have a menu item.
This is Visual Studio 2015 with Resharper Ultimate trial
The following steps worked for me:
Disable ReSharper
In ReSharper's options -> Keyboard & Menus, select the Visual Studio scheme and click on Apply Scheme.
Mind the note under the Apply Scheme button: Click save to close the ReSharper Dialog and...
In TOOLS --> Options | Keyboard, make sure the right mapping scheme is selected (Visual C# 2005 for me) and click Reset and finally, Ok
That did the trick for me. opening the keyboard dialog once again and hitting Ctrl+, in the Press shortcut keys was no longer showing the key mapping to be bound to Resharper.Resharper_GotoRecentEdits
As per my comment on the initial post - it seems sometimes you have to uninstall ReSharper to remove the key bindings.
I am a long time CodeRush user trying out Resharper 9 with VS 2013. I am not able to find the option for configuring individual keyboard shortcuts. I don't see list of commands under Environment > Keyboard & Menus as mentioned in the documentation. 'Apply Scheme' keeps the screen unchanged. What am I missing here?
https://www.jetbrains.com/resharper/webhelp60/Configuring_ReSharper__Configuring_Keyboard_Shortcuts.html
You can configure ReSharper's keyboard shortcuts just like Visual Studio's - in Visual Studio's own keyboard dialog - Tools → Options → Keyboard. All ReSharper commands begin with "ReSharper" if you want to filter them.
In every Visual Studio.NET version you can set keyboard shortcuts using menu Tools -> Options -> Environment -> Keyboard and then find the command you want to assign a shortcut to by entering part of it in "Show commands containing".
For one thing, the listbox is ridiculously short and hard to navigate - is there an alternative?
Then, how do I find out the correct command name for a specific action?
Specifically, I'm using ReSharper 5.1 with Visual Studio 2010 and want to have the Alt + Enter shortcut back (it used to be there in older versions by default) that opens the ReSharper context menu when the cursor is over a curly underline ReSharper uses to highlight errors or warnings.
How do I find out the command name for that (except by an educated guess)?
The way I do this is to perform an action while recording a macro (using Tools / Macro / Record temporary macro).
When I have finished with the action, I look at the source code of the macro and it usually helps to find the correct command.
For example, I have just let R# add some magic through Alt-Enter, and the macro recorder has:
DTE.ExecuteCommand("ReSharper_QuickFix")
You can rebind all of the ReSharper shortcuts by using the ReSharper -> Options -> Visual Studio Integration page. Select a keyboard scheme and hit "Apply Scheme".
