After upgrade to 2022-12 the key Ctrl + Shift + T doesn't open the Open Type window but ask the window the user want open.
How can I reset to the previous behaviour ?

Can you show exactly what happens when you press that key? I'm not sure exactly what "ask the window the user want open" means.

The Eclipse log may show a binding conflict warning, which would provide useful information.

You can go to the Eclipse preferences and the "Keys" section to explore key bindings. You can do various things here. You can enter "Open Type" in the filter and see what key, if any, "Open Type" is bound to. You can click on the "Binding" column to sort the entries by that value, and page down until you find "Ctrl+Shift+T" to see what that key is bound to.

I would do all of that before you attempt to make any changes. If possible, you'll want to understand why the binding suddenly changed. It is likely due to a plugin that you've installed.

Once you have all that information, you can edit the bindings in that same "Keys" table. You can edit the binding that "Ctrl+Shift+T" is bound to, and unbind it, and then go to the "Open Type" command and bind that to that key sequence.

In the right lower corner i appears a small popup window asking which kind of window open (Go to symbol in workspace / Open type) and then I'm forced to choose every time.
I upgraded to 2022-12 from 2022-09 and I didn't apply any new plugin.
In 2022-09 it worked as usual.
The strange is that, looking at the Keys definitions, two actions are bound to Ctrl+Shift+T in 2022-12 but also in 2022-09 where it worked fine.

This particular conflict was apparently noticed a long time ago: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=521629 .

The fix is simple. Unbind the "Go to symbol in workspace" command.

Tks but in this way I should do it for every project.
Is there any way to do it once for all ?
I found, also, another problem whan I unbind Go to symbol in workspace also Open Type is unbound and I need to rebind it.
Tks

Any settings in the "Preferences" dialog are not specific to any project.

If you unbound one command, and that also unbound a different command, then I have no idea. I don't know what you did.
