This is an idea for Pro to behave more like Windows Explorer -- allow for the use of Backspace to navigate back. The need for this could be mitigated by supporting buttons 4 and 5 on the mouse though both would be nice.

Hello @wayfaringrob,

Although it is still in our backlog to support Backspace for navigating to the previous location, we do already support Alt+Left Arrow as a keyboard shortcut for the same function.  (Similarly, Alt+Right Arrow is for navigating forward.)  

Also, in Pro 3.2, you can modify the pre-defined keyboard shortcut for a particular action in the Keyboard Shortcuts dialog - simply click in the keystroke field and enter the keystroke you prefer. Below, for Go Back, I have changed the keystroke from Alt+Left to Backspace:

 

Click Save to save your shortcut.  You can restore the default shortcut later as well.

Thank you again for your suggestion.
