On nightly build, Running Version 1.65.26 Chromium: 122.0.6261.57 (Official Build) nightly (64-bit) How do I disable the “CTRL-SPACEBAR” new command mode feature? I have web apps which rely on ctrl-space for keyboard shortcuts. This is the new feature which opens this menu [image]

@coinzdude go to your settings and remove the shortcut? [image] The Ctrl and Space is the shortcut for Quick Commands [image] When you go to that and mouseover, you’ll see a - appear, click it to remove the command. Then, of course, you can hit Add to assign a different command if you would lik…

I tried the Add function first, but that did not disable the Control Space from the Quick Command function, meaning even with another shortcut for Quick Commands, typing Control Space brings up the Quick Command function. So, as a workaround I deleted one of the shortcuts that could be deleted and …

So you essentially set the Ctrl + Space shortcut to a different action and that made it so it would no longer initiate the quick commands, is that correct?

No, I was previously using Control + Space to put my Macbook to sleep, but when I relaunched Brave, the updated version uses the Control + Space for Quick Commands, which as you’ve seen, cannot be deleted. So I deleted another Brave shortcut, I don’t remember what it was for and I am using that shor…

Interesting — that must be a Windows feature only. I see it on my Win10 machine (the minus button) but not on macOS. I’ll have to see why this isn’t part of the macOS version of the browser.

@kljlkAemkema can you please try my initial suggestion:
