In this article, we’ll show you how to find all your current cs2 binds using the developer console. If you haven’t enabled the developer console yet, start with the first step below.
How to Enable Developer Console
To enable the developer console:
- Open Settings menu
- Go to “Game”
- Find “Launch with Developer Console” under “Game” subsection
- Set it to “Yes”
Once the console is enabled, you can open it using the default key: ` (backtick / tilde)
If, for some reason, you cannot enable the developer console through the Settings menu, consider reading our separate article where we explain two additional methods: enabling the console via launch options or an autoexec.cfg, as well as binding the console to a custom key.
How to Check All CS2 Binds at Once
After opening the console, it’s time to use commands.
The fastest way to see all keys that currently have binds is by using this command: “key_listboundkeys”
After pressing Enter, the game will print a full list of bound keys in the console, along with the commands or aliases assigned to each one. Example available in the article header. This is the quickest way to get a complete overview of your binds.
How to Check an Individual Key
If you don’t want to scroll through the entire list and only need to check one specific key, you can use the following syntax: “bind <key>”
As on the example above, typing “bind w”, by default, will return: “w” = “+forward”. This tells you exactly what command or alias that key is bound to.
How to Find CS2 Binds by Command
The previous commands allow you to check which command is bound to a specific key. However, there are situations where you want to do the opposite — find all keys bound to a specific command.
To do this, use the following syntax: “key_findbinding <command>”
For example, if you want to find all keys bound to the jump command, type: “key_findbinding jump”.
The console will then display all keys assigned to that command — by default, this is Space, with Mouse Wheel Up and Mouse Wheel Down bound as custom keys in our case.
Summary
If you want to see all your bound keys at once, use: “key_listboundkeys”.
If you want to check a single key, use: “bind <key>”.
If you want to find all keys bound to a specific command, use: “key_findbinding <command>”
Advanced users may already have their binds defined in an autoexec.cfg, which is always a good place to review your binds. If you don’t have one yet, you can consider using our CS2 Autoexec Tool to quickly create a config containing all your settings and binds.
