    Press and holding down a key on my keyboard causes the letter to repeat very quickly


    My friends were on my PC before and they did random things and now I noticed that when pressing and holding a key, the key repeats itself really quickly as if someone is pressing the key super fast over and over again. I tried checking the settings to see if my friends changed anything but I saw nothing. I went to keyboard settings to see if sticky-keys or filter-keys were enabled or anything but it was all the same. How can I fix this?P.S. could be my friends didn't change anything - when they first turned on my PC there was an update and ever since that update I noticed the issue.I'm on Wind

    :)
