(MAC) Command+Q quitting the game after the new update.

[BlaeR]

How do I make this control NOT quit the game. I've had this command since I started playing (1 year ago) without any problem, but after the update, this command quits the game. PLS HELP

You should change key combination for Quit Dota 2 in settings->keyboard to cmd+alt+ctr+q for example

Hi Buld00zer. Thanks for the reply, but I honestly don't know how to do that.. Can u help me?

Hi Blaer. System Preferences - Keyboard - Shortcuts(Tab), Do exactly the same as in the screenshot

This worked for me as well thx! The name needs to be exactly "Quit Dota 2" - combination can be anything really.

This is perfect it works! But now I have another problem Command + W is closing my dota as well how do I turn that off?

Hey similar to above, I created a keyboard shortcut to disable Command + W function, due to the new update for the 2019 battle pass.

1) Create a keyboard shortcut called "Close" and use an alternate shortcut you'd like, apply to all applications.

NOTE: This may impact other applications and if you use cmd+w for other apps, then this fix might not work well with you. I could't get it to work when labelling it "Close Dota 2".

This is actually solvable in another way without removing cmd + w from all apps. This is what you'll need to do:

1. Create a new keyboard shortcut in Settings by clicking the plus icon (as before).
2. Click the select program dropdown and scroll down to the very bottom - select other.
3. Now make sure you have the Dota 2 app in the Dock, if not, just run the game via Steam.
4. Then cmd + click the Dota 2 icon in the dock - this will show the actual app (dota2.app) in finder.
5. Drag the app from finder onto the window you have open in the settings app - dota2.app will now be selected.
6. Add shortcut "Close" and set it to something else like: cmd + shift + w

Thats it - enjoy!

The above method can be used to add the Quit Dota 2 under dota2.app as well to if you like and this time dota2.app will already be selected in the dropdown :)

Special thx to my good friend and epic mac user @lyret you helped with this solution! <3

add the Quit Dota 2 under dota2.app

So the names should be "Close" and "Quit Dota 2", to sum it up.
Thanks guys!

This is not a viable workaround for me as when I try to write the shortcut for the Dota 2 app, the OS gives me the message 'You cannot create shortcuts for Dota 2.app'.

Is there another workaround? Thanks.

sir i try your answer but after i move there was message "You cnnot create shortcuts for Dota 2.app"

How to fix this please help

Alright guys so i found another way which is more easier and works on the latest version of OsX. Instead of searching for the csgo app when you ad a new shortcut, just let "every app", but make sure in the title of your shortcut to write "Quit csgo_osx64" or the name of your csgo app that u can find when u start the game and put your mouse in the left high corner (does not work on full screen). Then write another command (like command + M) and it's done !

it's really important you do step 4 and 5! I've done it on multiple computers and it works every time!

This one works for Catalina. Though CS:GO app is displayed as full name, just write the title "Quit csgo_osx64" with the capitalised Q. I even used cmd + M to honour this reply and have been so happy so far!

Great! But how do I apply this to both CMD+Q and CMD+W? The name "Quit Dota 2" can only be applied to one shortcut.

Solved by adding another shortcut using "Close".
