With FF 3.5 I was able to use Ctrl Shift A to validate html for a local file. (web developer add-on)

FF 4.0 uses Ctrl Shift A to open the add ons manager. It appears that I now have to click through the menus to activate the local validation option which still shows the Ctrl Shift A shortcut. Please advise.

You can change that no longer working shortcut to a different shortcut in the Web Developer Options (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions)

You can also try this extension to see if that allows to disable the Shift + Ctrl + A shortcut.

This solution is not working. Opening addon manager will still stay with Ctrl+sift+A and you cant change that. Has anyone found a solution? Can I remove addon manager completely. So disappointed.
