I asked KiCad to renumber the components on the schematic. What I didn't realise is that it turns the PCB into a disaster area, because many of the components are then in the wrong places, with wrong connections. Is there a way to recover from this, or do I have to delete all the components and tracks and start again?? Is there a way to prevent the disaster, other than not renumbering?

I have another question: is there a way of printing the list of keyboard shortcuts? Since it is an HTML page in the on-line manual, I can't see how to do it.

Fortunately, KiCad saves backups. Look in your PCB project directory. You should have a folder of zips called "<Project_name>-backups".

For the hotkeys, find where the KiCad configuration files are stored. I guess on Windows, it would be somewhere close to:

%AppData%\Local\KiCad
..or
%AppData%\Roaming\KiCad

In there you should find text files called:
Eeschema.hotkeys
KicadFrame.hotkeys
..etc
