keyboard shortcuts

I agree. For me there is no need to uncomment. I dont know why it is needed in your case.
If I move accels.scm to accels.scm.backup to get a fresh one generated, I can directly use Alt+Up on starting thunar.

Tried to reproduce your concrete use-case:
Delete accels.scm, start thunar 1.8.x (generates a fresh one), check Alt+Up --> works
Close thunar 1.8.x. Start thunar 4.16: Alt+Up still working.

Sorry, no idea what happened for you.

Cheers
Alex
