## 1.1 Unset keybinds {#unset-keybinds}

### Q: How do I get `Alt+Left/Right` to not move windows? I want these to navigate forward/backwards in File Managers and Firefox.
### Q: How do I prevent the default `Alt+F4` from closing the focused window?

You could either copy `rc.xml.all` and just remove the entries you do not want, such as `<keybind key="A-Left">`
You could either copy `rc.xml.all` and just remove the entries you do not want, such as `<keybind key="A-F4">`

Or you could use the `None` action or simply define a keybind with no action (which does the same). For example:

```
<keyboard>
<default/>
<keybind key="A-Left"/>
<keybind key="A-Right"/>
<keybind key="A-F4"/>
</keyboard>
```
