When I use Firefox, I use CTRL key combinations to cut, copy, paste, and delete. I also use F5 to refresh a webpage.

Firefox uses many, many other key combinations and hotkeys, and a great number of them have caused the instant erasure of all the hours of work I had done on a webpage: The browser jumps to another tab, or it goes fullscreen (one of the Function keys does this), or it opens a new window, or it opens a History window, or it does any number of things which I neither want nor need.

I require only to use the key combinations and hotkeys to perform the functions that I have listed, above. But if I must sacrifice them in an overall disable, then I will do so.

Please tell me how to disable the key combination commands and hotkeys in Firefox.

Unfortunately the loss of programming if you closed a tab or page isn't fault of Firefox when one should be saving their work as they do their work to prevent this from happening. Hotkeys are there for quick actions but one needs to remember that and there is no way to disable other then Addon or 3rd party software that would change or configure default Firefox Hotkeys.
