    I don't want "ctrl + shift + a" to open the "Search tabs" dropdown in my browser


    I don't know why this happened but "ctrl + shift + a" now opens the "Search tabs" dropdown in Chrome and Edge.Prior to this, I used it as a shortcut for Snagit to screen capture as part of my work.I can't figure out how to change it and there are no available "hotkeys" to use the screen capture shortcut for Snagit.

    `ctrl+shift+w` in browser

    Many times, I accidentally press `ctrl+shift+w` in browser and all my open tabs and work goes away in the browser. Is there any undo option for this ? if not then how can I disable this shortcut ?

    Browser: Ctrl+click to open tab not working (no context menu either)

    Hi, please post a screenshot of exactly what you mean. For example, I guess you mean right clicking a URL in a web page.... not - rt clicking a tab - rt clicking space on a web page I'm not sure what you expect Ctrl+click or Shift+click to do.. behaviour could be browser-specific. And I guess you mean Ctrl+rt click or Shift+rt click ? Example (Firefox):

    You might find this interesting: Why do some web links not show up the option to open in a new tab of a browser after right-clicking on it? What is the procedure to open these links in a new tab? - Quora

    Browser: Ctrl+click to open tab not working (no context menu either)

    Hi, This might not be a Windows 10 specific problem but I know it's also not a browser-specific problem either because I can reproduce it on several different browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Edge). I'm on website where I absolutely need to be able to open links in a separate tab but am unable to. Right-clicking for the context-menu doesn't display the usual 'open in a new tab' and Ctrl+click or Shift+click doesn't work either. Disabling javascript (seen suggested on some other forum) prevents the page from loading properly. I even tried some Chrome extension specifically for this problem (forget the name?), didn't work either so...is there any other solution? *Rolleyes Thanks in advance!
