Thanks Andrew, I don't know how to deactivate these buttons, and it's not my place to deactivate them either, I simply recommend from my experience to improve Cinelerra and make it interesting and without kamikaze functions. I have Audacity 2.4.2 backport from Debian upstream running perfectly on Linux Mint 19.3, the only drawback is that the Calf effects interfaces are not graphically pretty, but I don't care, they work just as well with its retro-style interface from the late 90s. I don't know what distribution you use, and I'm sure you know 1000 times more about this than I do, but just in case, the repositories that have allowed me to have Audacity 2.4.2 working perfectly are the ones on this website: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntuhandbook1/+archive/ubuntu/audacity
