I use MATE Desktop on Ubuntu 20.04.

Advanced MATE Menu is at the left corner of the top panel. Compared to the classic menu, the advanced menu has search ability, which I feel is more convenient.

But the advanced menu will pop out whenever I press the windows key. enter image description here

Is there a way to disable the windows key or not letting the menu pop out?

I tried the setting in this post

gsettings set org.mate.mate-menu hot-key ''
gsettings set com.solus-project.brisk-menu hot-key ''

But it does not work.

Thanks in advance!

You can try to do right mouse click on Menu, then select Preferences, click on the button at the right of Keyboard shortcut and hit Backspace to disable it.

Note what is interesting - the above GUI way triggers the same /org/mate/mate-menu/hot-key key, so you can use dconf write /org/mate/mate-menu/hot-key "''". It will react on first Super hit, but will not react on next hits.
