Windows 10: Changes using the Registry Editor won't take effect

Hey guys,

I got a problem with the registry editor. I want to set my keyboard response rate really low. In the screenshot you can see what I've changed it to. I think the repeat delay was 1000 before or something. Anyway I don't get any notification that there was any issues regarding the changes, but the changes just don't take effect. My keyboard response rate hasn't changed at all, even after editing it. Doesn't work for my brother either. On my old PC it worked randomly after restarting the computer 5 times. Doesn't work now though and I am not quite sure as to what the reason is.

Registry editor

Hi Ruben,

Changes made using the Registry Editor can greatly affect how your system works. Should you wish to undo those changes, we suggest that you restore your system to an earlier state. To do this, simply follow the steps in this

article.

You can also find this
article useful for backing up your files before making changes with your registry.

Should you have further questions, please let us know.

 

how to open registry editor?

The registry editor is not something to fool around with if you don't know what you're doing. You can easily render your installation of Windows inoperative.

There is no "undo" feature in the registry; changes may take immediate effect.

Before making any changes to the registry, you should back up the registry and/or create a System Restore Point and/or create a system image.

You can start the registry editor by clicking the Start button, typing regedit in the Search box, and pressing Enter.

 

Change Font for Registry Editor in Windows 10


@Brink

Thanks, Shawn! That's a good one! Works as advertised.

Suggestion-- Add a .reg download to the tut to add the Regedit key and default blank FontFace. It will have no effect until a value is added.

Code:

Code:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00  [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Regedit] "FontFace"=""

Now, if I could only get the font size a bit larger, I wouldn't have to strain these old eyes!! *chuckle

Tip: Add the Regedit key to the Favorites (at top) to make it easy to get back to. Helpful if you experiment with different fonts.
