I've been having this problem for yonks now and anet support couldn't help me. I can't seem to use ctrl+space to target enemies, yet i can ctrl+double click and ctrl+shift+space. This problem occurs even when i use a different PC, and yet resetting the controls to default hasn't helped either. Any ideas?

ctrl+space does nothing . ..
neither does ctrl+shft+space

do what Tarun said. you're looking for C+Space. C targets closest enemy; space attacks.

i think he means, target an enemy so other party members can see target. normally thats ctrl+space or ctrl+double click

Im having this EXACT same problem. Except. I play on my account. It wont work. Play on my Mates account on the exact same computer. And it will allow me to Ctrl+Space.

Have you checked the keybindings in the Guild Wars options? Maybe you accidentally mapped Ctrl-Space to a different command. That would explain Zelic's problem as keybindings and interface settings are saved with the account, not on the computer.

just found out the problem.. it's not the keybinding in GW, it's keybinding in an external program.. ctrl+space is used as a shortcut in njstar which i run in the background and instead of targeting, i use that instead (but it doesn't pop up so i had no idea i was changing functionality in that).. something to keep in mind for those out there who's ctrl+space doesn't work.

Yeah its the same as something for MSN. Think its the 'boss mode' thing you get with MSN Plus. Takes precidence over GW so the targetting doesnt' work.

I have the same exact problem and was glad to see this post. However, I don't have njstar, so it must be some other program... How did you discover what program it was, and how did you disable that keystroke for it?
