    Held Keys Repeat Choppily


    So recently I've been having a small issue with my laptop. After 10-20 minutes of having my computer on and typing in any browser I've tested Chrome and Edge, any time I hold a key the repetition is slow and choppy, as if there was a delay between each new repetition appearing. I'm not quite sure why this is happening, but I'd appreciate any help. Thanks!

    :)

    Repeating Keys don't repeat

    windows 10, Lenovo laptop yoga.

    For one logon the repeating keys ( Backspace and Space) do not repeat when held down. The On-screen touchscreen keys do repeat correctly. Repeating keys work correctly with any other logon.

    No extra hardware on machine.

    Held Keys Repeat Choppily

    Windows 10 for Games, Key Repeat

    I just installed Windows 10. I use my PC to game, and have issues with the Key repeat function. When a key is held down, it locks, and starts repeating. I can not find a way to turn this off. This makes Windows 10 very unfriendly for games.

    How do you completely turn off the repeat function, or the locking of a key that is held down? I just want a regular key board.
