+- Code clean-up (Ctrl + k, d)
+- Code cleanup options
+- Intellicode
+- Invert if (Ctrl + .)
+- Multi-caret (Ctrl + alt + click)
+- Convert to ternary condition (Ctrl + .)
+- Add parameter at callsite (Ctrl + .)
+- Erase extra parenthesis (Ctrl + .)
+- For loop to foreach (Ctrl + .)
+- Linq to ForEach (Ctrl + .)
+- Navigate to Enclosing Block (Ctrl + alt + up arrow)
+- Go to All Recent Files (Ctrl + t, r)
