Microsoft is finally making it easier to disable the Sticky Keys pop-up in Windows 11. This window shows up whenever a user hits Shift five times in succession and lets users activate multi-key shortcuts, like Ctrl+Alt+Del, with a single key. However, the pop-up rears its head each and every time Shift is pressed five times consecutively, frustrating long-time users who have no interest in Sticky Keys.
There's a checkbox that simply turns it off. The pop-up now arrives with a checkbox that says "never turn on Sticky Keys with this shortcut." Clicking the checkbox ensures the annoying window goes away permanently. This feature is currently only available to those enrolled in the Windows Insider program as an experimental beta release.
There's a more traditional way to turn off Sticky Keys while waiting for general availability. Navigate to Settings and then Accessibility and finally Keyboard. Make sure Sticky Keys is toggled to the off position.
Next, make sure Keyboard shortcut for Sticky Keys is also toggled to the off position. Sticky Keys are more than 30 years old, first introduced in Windows 95.
