  Is there a way to set the "Suspend Hotkeys" option permanently, via menu item or manually setting something in an *.ini file, etc.?
  
  I want to disable all QAP hotkeys and set "Suspend Hotkeys" in the right-click menu to do that, even though I don't *think* there should be any QAP hotkeys set. I don't have any enabled in the "Popup Hotkeys" menu etc. But I set the "Suspend Hotkeys" options just to be sure.
  
  And I have to set that *every* time I reboot or restart QAP since it default to NOT SET after restart/reboot. It would be nice if I could set & forget it and have it always applied (checked) after every restart/reboot.

  Currently it appears that disabling Hotkeys is only temporary.
  Restarting the program enables them again.
  
  I believe making disabling them permanent is on the Wishlist.

  The reason for the "Suspend Hotkeys" is for temporary suspension. By definition, suspension is temporary :-)
  
  If you set all hotkeys in "Options, Popup Hotkeys" to "None" and make sure no favorite has a hotkey or a hotstring in "Tools, Manage Hotkeys / Manage Hotstrings", you will have no reason use the "Suspend hotkeys".
  
  Curiosity: How do you use QAP with all hotkeys disabled? Only from the tray icon?

  Yes, I only use QAP from the tray icon.
  
  I have so many programs on PC(s), with so many risks of hotkey conflicts, that I tend to disable *every* hotkey option on every (esp. new) program and then only slowly turn on a limited number for specific things. For QAP, I haven't found anything that needs a hotkey so I *have* manually set each & every '''hotkeys in "Options, Popup Hotkeys" to "None" and make sure no favorite has a hotkey or a hotstring in "Tools, Manage Hotkeys / Manage Hotstrings"'' -- until a QAP update adds a new one, something in the *.ini gets messed up, etc. And *also* manually disable "Suspend hotkeys", *every* time I restart the PC or (re)launch QAP..., as belt-and-suspenders to avoid conflicts. Then I don't have to rule QAP in & out if & when a new HK conflict appears when I install a new program or a program updates (manual or auto).
  
  Scouts-honor that you'll *never* add a new hot-key for a new or existing command... :-)

  I wouldn't go that far but since QAP is a fairly mature product, I don't think it will happen. You are free to keep the double security of you wish but I don't see the need to make it a new feature. That said, thank you for your input and follow-up.
