    sticky keys

    Hi,

    Sticky keys dialog box appears when you have press the Shift key five times continuously. It also lets you use the Shift, Ctrl, ALT, or Windows Logo keys by pressing one key at a time. You can set up Sticky Keys from the Ease of Access Center on the Control
    Panel. Follow the steps below:

    • Press the Shift key five times.
    • Once the dialog box appear, click the Go to the Ease of Access Center to disable keyboard shortcut link.
    • It will open the Set up Sticky Notes window in the Control Panel.
    • Uncheck Turn on Sticky Keys when SHIFT is pressed five times option.
    • You can also set the settings to your desired option.

    After doing so, check if the same pop-up will appear while playing the game.

    Get back to us if you need further assistance.

    Sticky key settings restore on restart

    I want to turn sticky key off.

    I went to "Control Panel\Ease of Access\Ease of Access Center\Make the keyboard easier to use", unchecked "Turn on Sticky Keys". I also went to "Control Panel\Ease of Access\Ease of Access Center\Set up Sticky Keys" and unchecked everything (including "Turn
    on Sticky Keys when SHIFT is pressed five times").

    However, each time I restart the computer, the option "Turn on Sticky Keys when SHIFT is pressed five times" and the option "Turn on Sticky Keys" were checked automatically.

    I am out of ideas. Please help.

    Thanks!
