Press keyboard shortcuts one key at a time using Sticky Keys

Instead of having to press three keys at once (such as when you must press the CTRL, ALT, and DELETE keys together to log on to Windows), you can press one key at a time by turning on Sticky Keys. Then, you can press a modifier key (such as CTRL) and have it remain active until another key is pressed.

To open the Ease of Access Center, select:

  • Start.
  • Control Panel.
  • Ease of Access.
  • Ease of Access Center.

Under Explore all settings select:

  • Make the keyboard easier to use.

Under Make it easier to type, select:

  • Turn on Sticky Keys.

Set up Sticky Keys

Select Set up Sticky Keys.

In Set up Sticky Keys select:

  • Turn on Sticky Keys.

Under Keyboard shortcut, select:

  • Turn on Sticky Keys when SHIFT is pressed five times if you want to use the shortcut to turn Sticky Keys on and off.

Under When using keyboard shortcuts to turn Ease of Access settings on select from these options:

  • Display a warning message when turning a setting on.
  • Make a sound when turning a setting on or off.

Under Options and Notifications you can choose to:

  • Lock modifier keys when pressed twice in a row.
  • Turn off Sticky Keys when two keys are pressed at once.
  • Play a sound when keys are pressed.
