I really often need to copy/paste from a terminal opened in my browser. Because the shortcut for copying in a terminal is always Ctrl+Shift+C, it's a mess to have instead Firefox opening Inspector from devtools.

How can I disable this shortcut ?

I've tried to update some about:config settings but it doesn't seem to be helpful and old working correctives add-ons are not supported anymore.

It is not possible to disable only specific developer shortcut, your only option is to disable the developer entirely via about:config.

  • about:config => devtools.policy.disabled = true
