How to disable some shortcut keys (such as Ctrl +R, Alt +D) in Edge?
Actually, there was a program written in C++, which works in IE11, but it does not work in Edge.
I would like to know what is the possible reason and the solution to it.

Now, instead of e.g. Ctrl+E activating an Edge command, it will not run Ctrl+E in my web app, but instead does absolutely nothing.

I understand the situation you meet, but there's no way to disable shortcut keys in Edge.
All shortcuts come pre-defined in Edge. You can check the list of all Edge shortcuts from here. I think the appropriate way is to configure your shortcuts so that they don't conflict with Edge shortcuts. Or there is an extension you can try out that lets you customize browser shortcuts.
