Default Bullet Point Keyboard Shortcut No Longer Working

Hi I have been using Control + Shift + L to insert bullet points into MS Word but today I was messing around with styles and suddenly no bullet point is showing up when I use the above keys. I am hoping there is something I can do to fix this. Other keyboard shortcuts of mine are working fine.

Thanks for your help

There is two possible explanations for this no longer working.
1. You've changed the style attributes for List Bullet in that document
2. You've reassigned the default keyboard shortcut to something else.

If you are in a Normal paragraph and do the keystroke, does the style change to List Bullet?

If you refresh the styles from the attached template, does the bullet return?

Default Switching from normal paragraph to list bullet

Thank you for your reply.

Yes when I am in normal paragraph and try to add the bullet it changes style to ListBullet. No the bullet has not been reassigned.

I am not sure how to refresh the style??

Apply the List Bullet style to a text paragraph in your document. Format it with the desired bullet format (using the commands in the Paragraph group on the Home tab). When you are done, update the style to match the selection (you can do that via the Styles pane—Ctrl+Alt+Shift+S).

If you want to adjust the indentation around the bullet symbol, you will to click the bullet symbol to select it and then right-click and choose Adjust List Indents.
