Slow Keys
Slow Keys is a setting that lets a user set a delay time between
pressing a key and having that character appear onscreen. This
setting is useful for someone with unsteady hands or difficulty in
targeting specific keys.
For example, if you set the Slow Keys option to one second, you
would have to press and hold down a character key for one entire

help alleviate inadvertent typing for certain users.

1. Do one of the following:

pressing and holding a key down, 1.5 seconds pass before the
