There is a VSSettings file included with the extension that can be imported to load any shortcuts that aren't automatically loaded.
Tip: Download and install the Keyboard Shortcuts Manager if you want to make life easier.
If you load the shortcuts that come with the extension ("Hot Commands Shortcuts"), your menu will look something like this:

Note that the Edit.Duplicate feature (on the main Edit menu) will be preferred if it exists. Otherwise the shortcut will go to the Hot Commands version, which exists on the Edit->Advanced menu.
