Visual Studio 2017 Enterprise - Move Selected Lines Up / Down shortcut not working

For some users, including me, it seems that in Visual Studio 2017 (maybe only the Enterprise version) the shortcut Alt + / does not work.

If you go to Edit -> Advanced -> Move Selected Lines Up / Down you can see if the shortcut is there or not.

If I go to Tools -> Options... -> Environment -> Keyboard -> Edit.MoveSelectedLinesUp / Edit.MoveSelectedLinesDown and assign Alt + / everything looks good from the edit view. However when I use the shortcut Visual Studio jumps between classes and methods in the file instead of moving the line. If I click on Move Selected Lines Up / Down from the menu the functionality works as expected. Why is this?

As commented by @Crowcoder ReSharper seems to be the culprit. Using the command Ctrl + Shift + Alt + / works. However suspending ReSharper via Tools -> Options... -> ReSharper Ultimate -> Suspend the normal command will still not work, even after restarting VS with the feature suspended. It seems ReSharper has to be uninstalled for this functionality to work again.
