Firefox: change keyboard shortcuts - so it'll work

If you use many keyboard shortcuts in Firefox, you should change some shortcuts and place them better. Frequent key combinations can then be reached more easily in the browser.

Change keyboard shortcuts in Firefox

You cannot change keyboard shortcuts in Firefox itself. To customize the shortcuts, you have to use an add-on instead. To use the add-on, you need a newer version of Firefox. Therefore, you should first check your browser for updates and update it if necessary.

Shortcuts via addon

1. Then open the Customizable Shortcuts addon and download it.
2. After installing the add-on, choose "Menu"> "Settings".
3. Then click on the "Shortcuts" tab.

Create your own shortcuts in Firefox

In the menu of "Shortcuts" you will find the individual commands listed in a very clear grouping.

1. First click on the shortcut you want to change.
2. Then select "Edit" and then correct the abbreviation as desired.
3. Finally, confirm your changes by clicking the "OK" button.
