unable to enter "/" in cell as 1st character

Why am I unable to enter the forward slash character (as the 1st entry) in a
cell?
Instead, it appears to act like the ALT key, accessing the File menus.

Under Tools > Options > Transition
you have a setting that tells Excel that the / key = Excel Menu

Use the ' key before the / key
' tells Excel that you are entering text into the cell

or

You can remove the / option
