Start Without Debugging shortcut does not work in Visual Studio

Question

Start Without Debugging shortcut does not work in Visual Studio. What can I do about it?

I set the shortcut for this to be Ctrl+R.

When I click the option to start without debugging in the task bar the program runs successfully as expected. But when I try to run the program using Ctrl+R nothing happens.

What am I missing here?

I am using Visual Studio Express 2012 for Windows Desktop.

Looks like ctrl+r is the first part of a chord. You could set the shortcut as ctrl+r, ctrl+r. See arrow in the picture.
