How can I make the main menu bar shortcuts (capital letter) dissapear? I don't want them there, I never use them.

I use firefox 49.0.1 . On the main menu bar (as well within the drop-down submenus) capital letter shortcuts suddently appeared! (I really did not notice which version and then this issue started).

This confuses me, besides I never use shortcuts of this type... How can I hide them, so I see only the menu and NOT that shortcuts?

Thank you!

Do you mean something like File (F) instead of just File ?

This has been reported in Firefox 49 by users of the Greek-language version of Firefox. Apparently it's normal when the "accelerator key" for a menu item is not one of the actual letters in the word to show it in parentheses, but not welcomed. Here are two further discussions:

I exactly mean this! And yes, my Firefox 49 is the Greek-language version of Firefox. I paid a visit to the two suggested discussions, but no solution was found there :( Any other ideas ? Thanks anyway for your kind and quick reply !

Sorry, I do not have a solution. One of the posts mentioned it might be fixed in Firefox 50 (due out around November 8th). I don't know whether there is any chance of it getting changed before then.
