PhpStorm: Auto Format adds Ø
This is very hard to google, because when I search for the character Ø I get a lot of results but on the page itself when I CTRL+F for the character Ø, all o's are marked as well...
Anyway, my problem: whenever I auto format in PhpStorm by pressing CTRL+ALT+SHIFT+L, the auto format works but also the character Ø is added to the file with the focus.
I had this problem on my laptop every now and then, but I seem to have it constantly on my private PC.
My keyboard is QWERTY - United States International. Region settings are Netherlands, language is English (United Kingdom). I believe this is the same on my laptop from work.
Is there a way to suppress the Ø character from being written when I use the CTRL+ALT+SHIFT+L to auto-format my files?
What happens in a text editor when you use CTRL+ALT+SHIFT+L? Does it insert the Ø character outside of PhpStorm?

Windows. Yes, it inserts the character outside PHPStorm as well. The thing is that I have windows 10 on both systems, as far as I know all the settings are the same, the keyboard I use is the same, but one system has the problem very, very little (once in a thousand?), And is solved by rebooting PHPStorm, the other system has the problem always.

It's apparently a known issue reported as Shortcuts with CTRL + Left ALT offten launches bind shortcut and then inserts national letter but there doesn't seem to be much movement around the ticket.
If you ask for my opinion, I have the impression that the underlying Java libraries on which JetBrains products are built do not make a clear distinction between AltGrand Ctrl+Alt. In US-International keyboard layout AltGr+L prints Ø.

What is your OS? Linux of Windows? This is definitely an OS level thing. P.S. Have you though about changing shortcut for Reformat Code action?
