or create a .reg file with

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\offi ce\16.0\word\disabledshortcutkeyslist]

"KeyMod1"="18,4,16"

This works as of February 9th, 2024. The decade long question has finally found its' answer. We may rest now, my brothers and sisters.

This solution works for all office products.
The topic of this Word thread is disabling the Alt hot key tips in Word ribbons.

Are you adding language switching as well?
Are there any side-effects?
Please consider posting this as a separate suggestion in the Windows forum.
