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?

    They don't even have to go that far. Just make ENTER=SEND optional.
    Why ENTER should mean SEND anyway?
    It has always been associated with a new line even from typewriter eras.
    Why argue over it?

    Agree 100%. Perfectly stated.

    The whole having to do a thing before you can do the thing you were supposed to do is BS. We have work to do. Messages to reply to. Why do we first have to go into a different mode before we can answer or send a message, when we have already gone into a chat whose whole function is to allow us to answer or send messages!
