However it doesn't seem to have the ability to change/edit. It just pushes you back into "Settings".
As I don't really use any shortcuts I just disabled to stop accidentally sending emails when copy pasting and using enter for a next line etc... and missing "v" and just sending the email.

Getting pretty sick of this new outlook. Now I can't disable ctrl-enter without disabling all keyboard shortcuts??? Really??? MS have forced us on to this way too early.

What makes this worse is that Microsoft Teams makes use of CTRL+enter to prevent sending a message when adding a new line. Due to Teams, I've started creating the habit of pressing CTRL+enter when creating multiline Teams messages. This habit is bleeding into Outlook, which causes me to prematurely send emails.
