most of the shortcuts not work as expected in edge browser (some of them is just okay) for ex: I have bind without shift like "alt+A" but its not work till I hold shift too! (I didn't enabled shift in configs of extension) edit : I found the issue (I have another extension called "Enhancer for YouTube™" they keybinds not be the same as this extension is it possible for u to mix your keybinds changer with browser keyboard shortcuts tab (shortcuts for all extension who can support this)?
