Vignesh Sundaram (ID: 000000cf9436f836) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 11/24/2022 Need a way to edit keyboard shortcut please. There is no extension on the webstore that does it through keyboard shortcut and this is the only that can do it. But that too ain't working because ctrl+shift+a is clashing with inbuilt chrome keyboard shortcut
