I like to use the Alt+f4 key for closing various windows.It used to work fine until suddenly the alt+f4 key just doesnt do anything in the browser window and in folders its opens the preview pane.How do i set it up to close the current window as it was always???

Thanks in advance.

Many keyboards have a function lock that toggle between function keys and OS shortcuts. Make sure you didn't flip that.
