Since i have upgraded my Laptop from Ubuntu 24.10 to 25.04 the shortcut for opening the terminal (Ctrl+Alt+T) doesn't work anymore. I didn't change anything since the upgrade and the shortcut was usable before doing the upgrade. Do you know how to fix this?

I found this out whilst experimenting with Fedora 42 which uses GNOME 48.
GNOME-Terminal has now been replaced with a new application called ptyxis
To set the shortcut go to Settings ⇒ Keyboard ⇒ Keyboard Shortcuts ⇒ View and Customise Shortcuts which will open a new window, Navigate to the bottom and select Custom Shortcuts ⇒ Add Shortcut give it a name (Terminal) enter ptyxis in the Command field click Set Shortcut (you'll notice that Add is now available) click after which the shortcut is saved.

I had this problem too, I fixed it by adding a new shortcut which calls the terminal.
go to Settings -> Keyboard -> Keyboard Shortcuts -> View and Customize Shortcuts -> Custom Shortcuts. Then add a new shortcut, you can name it whatever you want, but on the "Command" text box write "gnome-terminal" and and finally add the required shortcut.
