Update: Well, after nearly a month, there's another development: After adding all of my custom shortcuts to the default accel.cfg under \browser\defaults\settings, I thought I had found a workaround, until more of the shortcuts stopped working. I still can't figure out why this odd behavior suddenly showed up after two years of reliable performance from this version of K-Meleon. A

Quotesiria No clue either, but sharing your first suspicion that it might have to do with your recent shortcut changes... Does the error console show anything interesting after startup? Did you restart the system again? And what happens when you start a complete, fresh unzipped portable version? The issue started long after I had made the last changes to my accel.cfg.

Quoterodocop In russian OSes something like this happens with K-Meleon when the primary OS language is set to non-latin (cyrillic, russian - for example). Standard system-wide "Ctrl+...'-based shortcuts disappear in these cases (stop working and not showed in menus). Check your OS language settings (keyboard layouts etc.) They are set to U.S. English, and haven't been chang

I wonder what would happen if you gave it a Firefox version in the thousands, and perhaps an OS version of 13 or so. I still can't understand why that html5 test shows exactly the same values with or without HTML5 enabled in KM 75. Unless, of course, it's looking beyond my current settings to determine what this browser is actually capable of.
