Sticky Keys
May 27th, 2008 . by Markus - Add a Comment
Do you find it very annoying on your keyboard when trying to do shortcuts, but one of your hands are on the mouse. Let me explain - you are surfing with your mouse and want to bring up your task manager (Ctrl + Alt + Del), you have to take your hand off your mouse and type the key combos. You can get around this by enabling sticky keys.
Sticky keys enable you to press shortcut buttons one at a time instead of all at once, so you no longer have to have both hands to use shortcuts. To enable sticky keys just;
Windows XP
- Click start then Control Panel
- Click Accessibility Options
- Now open up the Keyboard tab
- Check on Use Sticky Keys (check the help area for more on the settings)\
- Click OK and you are done
Windows Vista
- Click start then Control Panel
- Open Ease of Access Center
- Click on make the keyboard easier to use
- Check turn on sticky keys (click on setup sticky keys to play with settings)
- Click apply and you are done
