Pressing Alt in Firefox in Linux (Ubuntu/Kubuntu/Linux Mint 22.xx) brings up a top menu, which is hugely annoying as I'm always trying to to a window action if I'm pressing Alt.

The suggested solution is to go to about:config and change ui.key.menuAccessKeyFocuses to "false".

But this keeps reverting itself. (Between every other reboot?). Alt will again bring up this menu.

How can I permanently disable this shortcut?

Hi. Ubuntu has the (bad) habit to modify settings via autoconfig and initialize prefs each time you start Firefox.

You can consider Firefox from the official Mozilla server if you currently use a version from the repositories of your Linux distribution to see if it behaves differently.

Wužytny?

Thank you! I get Firefox from a default install, so it's probably an Ubuntu-tainted one. Will try your suggestion.

(Does anyone know why Ubuntu has this habit of resetting user settings on each start?)

Wužytny?
