Keyboard shortcuts - The shortcuts can be migrated from version 12.1, but not from version 12.0.

Do the following to migrate your settings:
1. Click the Migrate Previous Settings button. After Effects checks to see whether there are settings folders on the computer for 12.0 and 12.1.
2. A button with the respective version number is displayed for each version with a settings folder. A Do Not Migrate button is also displayed.
Click the button corresponding to the previous version from which you want to migrate the settings. After Effects copies and processes the
settings files from the previous version into 12.2.
3. Quit and restart the application when prompted to complete the process and load the migrated settings.
When you start After Effects CC (12.2) for the first time with default settings, After Effects will automatically initiate the settings migration
process.
