  • VSCode Version: 1.10.2
  • OS Version: Windows 10

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Set the menu to hidden by default
  2. Leave the hotkey for showing the menu as the default (ALT in my case)
  3. Press ALT + CTRL or ALT + SHIFT
  4. The menu is displayed on key release

It is pretty common for me to start to use a hotkey combination and then change my mind and let go of the modifier keys before pressing the main hotkey. If those modifiers included the ALT key, the menu is displayed even if other modifier keys were also being pressed at the same time.

The only workaround for now is window.menuBarVisibility: hidden but that also means that the menu never shows up, not even on Alt press.

We will change to custom menus on Windows. For now you can set "window.titleBarStyle": "custom".
