keystroke multiple entry

B

Basha

I want to hold down a key for it to do automatic repeating of itself instead
of having the hit the key repeatedly. How do I achieve auto repeat on
keystrokes by simply holding down the key?

Hi Basha

This is a Windows setting. Depending on your version of Windows, find the
control panel, locate the section on printers and hardware if there is one,
then find the section to do with the keyboard. You should be able to set the
delay (ie the time before the repeating starts) and the rate at which the
letter will repeat.

Hope this helps.

Check Windows > Control Panel > Accessibility options for a check in the
Filter Keys box.

I have the same problem. Tried your advice and it didn't work. I think it's a
Word setting that I hit by mistake and have not been able to figure out how
to undo.
