Windows 10: why am i supposed to tap twice on some particular keys in my keyboardshift,windows,ctrl?

I have had this problem for over month it is really frustrating to have to press twice while in a game. I couldn't slide when I think or even run when I think in my game as soon as I think because i will have to tap those particular keys twice. and some times when I click windows button or any of those particular buttons once and after then while clicking my right mouse the button worksI have had suspicion about power toys which I installed a while ago after which this problem started. I am not sure though about itIt is really frustrating can anyone please help me....

Touchpad: Tap twice to drag

Here's how it works standardly:

1. Tap twice
2. Hold down on the second tap
3. Move around and you're dragging
4. Release finger to stop dragging

Here's what I like it to do:

1. Tap twice
2. Hold down on the second tap
3. Move around and you're dragging
4. Release finger
5. Reposition finger and continue dragging by flicking the touchpad some more
6. (repeat steps 4 & 5 as many times as desired)
7. Release finger and perform one addditional tap to stop dragging

That's what it used to be like in the Windows 7 era with most touchpads. Some people found it annoying and disabled it, but I welcomed it.

I know dragging continues when your finger reaches the touchpad edges, but that I find greatly irritating because it looses all sense of precision. This mechanism is stupendously irritating when trying to pixel-precise drag a trackbar, or when doing some
painting in photoshop on the go. Or just anything that requires precision.

So I'd like to disable "drag continues at touchpad edge" and enable "require additional tap to stop dragging".

So how can I do that?

If not possible, then please consider this a feature request.

Haha, the trick to it was the one step I missed - hold CTRL and tap enter twice.
