How do I turn off sticky keys in Windows 11 please? I assume that’s what’s happened as a box glazed up while I was holding the shift key - didn’t see what it said but keyboard won’t type now.

I’ve tried pressing shift 5 times, holding shift down for 5 seconds, pressing control and alt together and pressing control and function together.

Keyboard still not working.

Thanks Brink. Option 1 didn’t seem to work so I tried option 2 - signed out and clicked on the accessibility icon - but it showed sticky keys were turned off already. Signed in again and keyboard worked again. So it’s righted itself somehow!
