How to Turn on or off Sticky Keys on Windows 11

What Are Sticky Keys?

Sticky Keys is an accessibility feature of some graphical user interfaces which assists users who have physical disabilities or helps users reduce repetitive strain injury. It allows users to press and release a modifier key like Ctrl, Shift, Alt, or the Windows key, and have it remain active until any other key is pressed.

For instance, when you use Ctrl+C to copy, you need to press and hold the Ctrl key all the time and then press C to copy. However, if you turn on the Sticky Keys feature, you can press and release the Ctrl key and then press C to copy.

When the Sticky Keys feature is turned on, this icon will appear in the bottom right corner.

You can see this icon consists of 4 buttons. The upper button stands for the Shift key. The bottom 3 buttons stand for Ctrl, Windows key, and Alt.
