How To Prevent Enter Key From Sending Chat Message

I am often working in other windows but have a lot of teams messages that I need to address. This results in my sending meaningless messages accidentally when I hit ENTER thinking I am in a different window but I am really in teams. How do I by default prevent the ENTER button from sending a message?

    Does that work for all applications or is there a way to run an application or a popped up message box to do that.

    What I find strange is that all these AIs who are supposed to be clever don't have a setting option. I must have sent dozens of unfinished prompts just to Copilote alone.

    It's been two years since this problem was first reported. I'm sure there are other comment threads with this same complaint. Teams was release in 2017!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I reallllllly hate MS. They buy up competitors & then REMOVE functionality (wonderlist became todo & now you can't sort by more than one field.)

    FIX THIS BASIC FUNCTIONALITY

    YOU'VE HAD YEARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I just made a new modal interface for my car. It has normal mode, and hill mode. Toggle by clicking the mode button next to the start/stop button.
    In hill mode, press the accelerator to slow, and the brake pedal to accelerate. There will be a light just behind the steering wheel to tell you what mode you are in. I recommend looking at the road while you drive.

    This is how using 'shift+enter to linefeed', except when it is 'enter to linefeed' feels to me.

    A less extreme metaphor: there are vi, emacs, and notepad people. Each gets used to their interface and it becomes physical memory. Very very few of them toggle back and forth on a paragraph to paragraph basis - that way lies madness.

    In the mobile app, there is no issue using two separate keys to perform these independent functions regardless of input mode. Surely a more consistent customer feel would be achieved by giving an option to change this default functionality.

    I noticed that copilote opened as side widow in Edge actually doesn't use return key as send.

    So why not change it everywhere? Open AI even professional part still has the same problem. For a web app it must be even easier, unless the basic on event javascript can't tell if the key is sent or return.

    So why don't they do it?

    This is starting to sound sinister.
