Disabling main menu

[Stef123]

Is there a way to NOT bring up the main menu when pressing ALT?
I know it's a Windows thing, but maybe there is a tweak to prevent XY from responding to it?

Either:
- Hide the menu altogether ::1061
- An Autohotkey script to disable Alt when XYplorer window is active

Code: Select all

Alt::return

Thanks. Already tried 1061 but it doesnt keep ALT from brining it up anyway.
AutoHotKey sounds good, just have to figure out how to restrict it to XY, I still need ALT for other programs that don't feature the many alternatives XY has to offer.

Looks like you have set this tweak:

Code: Select all

HideMainMenuToggleByAlt=1

@Highend:

Code: Select all

Settitlematchmode, 2
#Ifwinactive XYplorer ahk_class ThunderRT6FormDC
Alt::return

Notice the pound sign

Exactly the kind of tweak I hoped for, set it to zero and no more accidental ALT-presses. GREAT.

Thanks. Also to bino and highend - your lines did disable ALT in XY, as well as in everything downstream. So I placed it at the very end of my .ahk and that did the trick, but got me wondering anyway. Also about IfWinActive vs #Ifwinactive - definitely takes more help-reading on my part.
