Well, as written above. I'm using these shortcuts quite often to select words when editing. Suddenly it stopped working. I'm on FF 61.0.2.

In some cases it works, in some not. Right here it works, for example. On Github doesn't.

Just for the record, FF Developer Edition 62.0b20 works fine.

Thanks

Where do you have this problem on Github? I tested creating a new issue (using Firefox on Windows 7) and Ctrl+Shift+Left seems to work normally in the editor for me.

Oh, those Plugins... Nimbus Screen Capture seems to be the one, who did it. I barely use it so, I can simply disable it, no harm done.

Thanks

Problem solved, now it's ok even there.
