Sometimes I accidentally press Ctrl+Q instead of Ctrl+W and the project closes. Where can I set up a confirmation request to close a project?

Thanks

If the project has not been saved, it will ask you to do so.

If the project has been saved, it won't ask anything and just close.

It seems obvious.

There is no way to do that, but by default the Save Project dialog should pop up if you press Ctrl+Q, if any changes have been made since you opened the project. I did a test here and the Save project dialog popped up when i hit Ctrl+Q in a project were i had made some changes.

 

You can press Ctrl+Alt+K and re-map Ctrl+Q so it does nothing at all.
