Disabling specific shortcuts in Mac OS

I've encountered a problem that I can't change or disable specific shortcuts in Mac OS, specifically the shift+cmd+q and ctrl+cmd+q which are used to prompt system log out and lock the screen. I work with graphic software and alike and those specific shortcuts I used to use for my most frequent tools back on Windows. Having these particular key combinations being blocked by these system features makes the work quite uncomfortable as I have to resort to reorganizing me entire hotkey list in my work programs.

Is there any way at all to disable these 2 hotkey combinations?

I would leave the default shortcuts, baked in short cuts in the macOS...

those specific functions are not listed in the shortcut list there

You could try creating new shortcuts for them, don't know if it would work...

In Ventura go System Settings->Keyboard and in right hand window click the 'Keyboard Shortcuts' and uncheck the one you don't want!
