    Disable keyboard shortcuts in Mail


    Right now whenever I accidentally press 'backspace' while reading an email in the Mail app on my Windows 10 laptop, that mail will automatically be archived. That is a problem for me because I will then have to spend time to restore it to the Inbox. So is there a way to disable keyboard shortcuts for Mail? I tried to find it in the Mail app for such a setting but I couldn't find it.

    :)

  2. Disabling laptop keyboard

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    As per the description. Let me help you in resolving the issue.

    I suggest you follow the steps below and check if that helps:

    • Press Windows + X and select
      Device Manager
      from the list.
    • Find Keyboards in the list of devices and click the arrow to expand it.
    • Right-click on the internal keyboard and click Disable. If there is no Disable option listed, click
      Uninstall.
    • Click File>Exit. Your laptop’s internal keyboard should now be disabled.
    Note: If you had to choose Uninstall instead of Disable in step 4, the keyboard will be automatically detected and re-installed if you ever have the Device Manager scan for new hardware for some reason. If that happens you’ll need to repeat this procedure
    in order to uninstall it again.

    Hope the information helps. Please let us know if the issue persist and we will be happy to assist you further.

    Disable Windows 10 keyboard shortcuts

    I want to turn off all Windows 10 keyboard shortcuts. Following others' suggestions, I right-clicked on the Desktop and followed the menu through graphics options to hotkeys and chose "Disable". However this hasn't helped. At least some remain. One
    example among many: {WindowsKey + I} still opens Settings. How can I disable this and all other Windows shortcut keys?
