    Windows 7 Changing default keyboard layout shortcut

    ctrl+shift conflicts with a number of other shortcuts that use ctrl+shift+(something else) As such, I find that I am constantly unintentionally changing my keyboard layout. The shortcut in older windows was shift+space, iirc, which worked very well and didn't conflict with anything else...
