2022-06-05 LucasPestana > Instead of this add-on, visit "about:config" and set "browser.quitShortcut.disabled" to "true" to disable Ctrl+Q/Cmd+Q. Since many users reported your extension didn't work for them, I went straight for this setting instead. It works perfectly, thank you for this plain instruction, Rob W. I'd also recommend y'all to read THIS instead: https://superuser.com/a/1352295/599625 -- instructions on how to neutralize Ctrl+Q (and Ctrl+Shift+Q) for numerous versions of Firefox for Linux and Windows. Note: apparently, this preference also neutralizes Cmd+Q (⌘Q) for Firefox on macOS too, hooray! https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29081356#29082023 However, it appears Ctrl+Shift+Q could still appears as a global Quit shortcut in the drop-down menu (I am a Windows user, running Firefox Developer Edition, currently at version 102); I just tested it prior to disabling the preference above: there are no prompts, no warnings, nothing. The whole browser simply closes rather abruptly. Please try to make your extension disable Ctrl+Shift+Q as well.
2021-02-10 Hutch Does not seem to work on Windows 10, Firefox 85.0.2. I installed the add-on and tried Ctrl+Shift+Q...and my browser closed. I thought, okay, maybe it needs a restart to work. So I opened it back up and tried it again...same thing. I was on a regular web page when I tried it, not a special browser page (which I think add-ons don't normally work on). If I did something wrong or if this is fixed, let me know, and I'll change my rating.
