Change ALT +F4 to ALT +X to close windows? [SOLVED]

I've looked around google and this forum but can't seem to change the default behaviour of ALT +F4 to close active window.
I would like to change that key combo to ALT +X (because the keys are closer to each other.
I'm running Xfce and have looked in the "keyboard shortcuts" section in settings, but i don't seem to find those shortcut settings there.

I possess a device, in my pocket, that is capable of accessing the entirety of information known to man.
I use it to look at funny pictures of cats and to argue with strangers.

It might be stale, but I googled out https://unix.stackexchange.com/question … -shortcuts.

Did you look at the window manager settings, as it was shown in the stackexchange link?

I don't use XFCE, so I can't easily check how things are.
