Disable F1/F9 in Excel

What is Disable F1/F9 in Excel?

Disable the F1/F9 add-in: easily avoid the notorious hassles of Excel

Function keys in Excel are indispensable. But there is a great chance of losing the frequently used F2 or ESC buttons and accidentally pressing F1. Your computer starts slow loading of Excel Help, and the task pane takes forever to shut down.

Accidentally pressing the F9 key is no less annoying. Excel begins recalculating all worksheets in all open workbooks. Almost every time it leads to frozen Excel, it stops work and file recovery attempts. For some Excel professionals, the measure of last resort is to physically remove the F1/F9 limits from the keyboard.
