Windows 10: Is it possible to make the Ctrl Key on Mac just like Windows 10?

I tried asking this in r/macOS but they are all elitists who say "ahaha just get used to it, it's far superior" so I am assuming they just have no idea how it works on windows/have never used a windows computer? I swapped the control keys with command in the settings, but that messes up quite a bit of keybindings. The ctrl key feels pretty useless on Mac since you can't copy or paste anything; among other things. Also if anyone knows how to make backspace + the arrow keys not delete/move 1 at a time that would be helpful too.

windows 10 key

Thanks but I don't want to do any decrypting. I want to download a Win 10 ISO from Microsoft and install it using my Win 8 key. No other steps required. Is that possible?

Hi,

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

I appreciate the troubleshooting steps you have tried to resolve the issue.

Follow the steps below and check if that helps.

Try using Ctrl keys and check if that helps.

if you still face the issue, try Method 2.

Method 2: Run the Hardware and Devices Troubleshooter.

Windows 10 has a built-in troubleshooter to check and fix issues with hardware and devices. I would suggest you to run this troubleshooter to check if the issue is with the Bluetooth adapter. Refer these steps:

• 
  Press Windows key + X, select
  Control panel.

  Change the view by option on the top right to
  Large icons.
  
• 
  Click on troubleshooting and click on the
  view all option on the left panel.

  Run the Hardware and devices troubleshooter.
  
• 
  Restart your computer and check if the issue is resolved.
  

Hope this information is helpful. Please do let us know if you need further assistance, we’ll be glad to assist you.

Millisecond delay to modifier keys like Ctrl to delay their release

How do I add a delay to modifier keys like Ctrl or Alt, to delay their release if my finger happens to accidentally be slightly or fully raised up, for instances when my pressure of my fingers on the keyboard isn't consistent? But most importantly, be able to define myself, the custom amount of milliseconds or seconds that the delay lasts? See this video for details.

1. I hold down the Ctrl key on the keyboard
2. I use the left click on the mouse to perform a multiple selection on the images
3. The Ctrl key is accidentally released (my finger is slightly raised due to a fluctuation in pressure being applied, replicated in the video)
4. I then continue to attempt to select some more images at once, to continue my multiple selection process
5. My selection count of everything I had under my multiple selection, is now lost. So now I have to start all over again with a multiple selection starting at just 1 item selected, upwards from 1.

So how can I add a delay for how many milliseconds or seconds a modifer key (like Ctrl or Alt) has to be released for before it becomes released?



Using Sticky Keys doesn't work, as the delay it adds is too long and Windows 10 doesn't let me shorten it. I'm using Windows 10 21H1
